How To Choose An NLP Training Provider?
What to Look For and Avoid A Costly and Timely Experience
And Reasons You Might Not Choose Me!
Choosing the right Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) trainer can be a daunting task. With a plethora of options available, it’s essential to make an informed decision to ensure you get the most out of your training. As an experienced NLP trainer and business coach, I, Mike Sweet, am here to guide you through this process.
Identify Your Goals
The first step in choosing the right NLP trainer is to identify your goals. Are you looking to become a certified NLP practitioner, or are you simply interested in learning more about the field for personal development? Your answer to this question will significantly influence the type of course and trainer you should choose.
Look for In-Depth Training
If you’re interested in becoming a practitioner, you’ll need to find a course that offers in-depth training. While there are many short courses available, they often lack the depth required to fully understand and apply NLP techniques. Ideally, you should look for a course that spans over a few months and includes a clinical component, allowing you to work with real clients under supervision.
Check the Trainer’s Credentials
Ensure that your potential NLP trainer holds the required certifications to deliver an NLP training course. While NLP is an unregulated profession, certification structures within the field are generally accepted. It’s crucial to verify that your trainer is accredited with, or at least a member of, a reputable organisation such as ANLP, BIH, or INLPTA.
Consider the Training Format
While online courses have become more prevalent, face-to-face training is still the gold standard, especially if you plan to use your NLP training professionally. This doesn’t mean that online courses are ineffective, but they should include live interactive components and sufficient support from the training team.
Do Your Due Diligence
Before committing to a course, do your homework. Prepare a list of questions to ask your prospective trainer, and don’t be afraid to ask for references or testimonials from previous students. Remember, choosing the right NLP trainer is an investment in your future, so it’s worth taking the time to make an informed decision.

There are so many NLP trainers. Why should I train with Mike?
The relationship between the trainer and trainee is paramount. Even though all training courses run over a few days, it’s beneficial when a person comes on a course and they get the idea of how that course will be delivered. For me, choose a trainer who you have a connection with from the content they put online. This is one of the reasons we have a phone call before committing to the training and why I have an ever-growing online NLP training resource.
