Become an accredited, effective hypnotherapist at your own pace
Are you looking for a new career that is more in line with your life values?
Or looking for a way to expand your existing practice and create deeper client change?
The Online Diploma is a full practitioner qualification that will give you the accreditation, hypnotherapy certification and skillset to start practicing as a Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist – and the freedom to train entirely at your own pace.
Carefully designed to be equivalent to live “classroom” hypnotherapy training
As experienced adult education providers, when creating this online training programme we wanted to be confident that those taking the online hypnotherapy diploma would complete the training just as skilled, knowledgeable and competent as those who have taken the classroom training; and most importantly are able to practice safely and effectively as professional fully accredited hypnotherapists.
Mark Davis explains the key features of the Online Diploma format in this 8 minute video.
“I was working full time and I had to keep my job. If the College didn’t offer an online format of the Diploma, I wouldn’t have done this – and I’m so grateful that I was able to do this. It's something that has changed my life.”
Harriet Curry – Online Diploma graduate, Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist (heotherapy.com)
Key Feature:
15 hours of one-to-one tutoring
In order to make our online hypnotherapy training as engaging and effective as the live training, we have introduced extensive one-to-one tutoring – a total of 15 hours (worth over £900).
This provides MORE personal tutor one-to-one contact time than in the actual classroom training.
All online hypnotherapy course tutors are in practice as registered Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapists, they have all taken the Diploma training and received the qualification.
Each course tutor has been personally selected by Mark R. Davis, the College Principal and have taken our special Hypno-CBT® Supervision Training, plus an individual training in coaching learners through our programme.
In this short video Mark Davis, Director and Lead Trainer, answers five common questions about the Online Diploma Practitioner Training:
Accreditation
This training will lead either to the Level 4 Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy or the Level 5 Higher Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy. Both are NCFE Customised Qualifications
Several Professional Membership options including: ACCPH, REBHP and FHT accept the Online format without any additional contact hours.. The Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT) is the largest register of complementary therapists in the UK
You have a wide range of membership options available once you have the Level 4 or Level 5 Customised Qualification – leading to hypnotherapy certification.
Some organisations, such as GHR or NCH, require you complete additional “contact hours” via additional courses, workshops and practise sessions, to make your contact hours up to 120 hours in total. Please note that membership of these organisations is not required in order to be a successful hypnotherapist.

Simon Beckman – Online Diploma trainee, Coach and Global IT Business Partner
The online hypnotherapy course platform is very well organised and my regular tutorials online have been amazing as my course tutor is really supportive. The course involves being paired up with a professional in the field of hypnotherapy and this has been a great asset in aiding my learning. The course is well structured and demanding and so far I feel like I am taking massive strides in my knowledge and proficiency as a future Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist.
