ANLP International CIC
The Association for NLP
Empowering NLP Professionals
There are some core requirements that all potential members of ANLP have to meet in order to join.
ANLP provides a self regulatory framework for NLP Professionals and as part of that, ensures that minimum standards are applied to all those who apply to ANLP for membership. These minimum membership standards are as follows:
To join ANLP as a Professional member or above, live face to face training is required and when this training is virtual, it must meet the ANLP virtual training criteria - NLP Professionals are working with clients and as such, it is important that members do have experience of training and working with real people. NLP is, by its very nature, an experiential subject - whilst online video courses may be a great introduction to NLP, they do not replace the experience of learning and practicing skills with real people and live training observations. After all, would you trust your life to a driver who has only ever passed their online theory test, without ever actually driving a car for real!
ANLP Membership Terms and Conditions (section 2.1.6) state that:
Due to the current trend towards offering extremely short courses and distance learning qualifications, ANLP Membership at Professional level or above will only be awarded to those who have qualified on a course requiring at least
All training certificates presented as part of membership criteria must have been awarded by a bona fide Trainer or Master Trainer of NLP (section 2.1.7).
As NLP is an unregulated profession, there are a number of 'NLP Master Trainers' who have obtained their 'title' without going through the rigorous processes agreed by the main certification bodies, to ensure that all training standards are maintained.
If you wish to practice NLP as a Professional and belong to ANLP, please do your due diligence before investing money in your training, to ensure you are obtaining certification from a bona fide Trainer (for Practitioner or Master Practitioner training) or Master Trainer (for Trainer's Training), which will be recognised by ANLP. If you are in any doubt, please check with ANLP before investing in your training.
