The NLP Toolbox

It is widely used in the world of elite sport and in the arena of both personal and professional development. NLP is the perfect set of tools for a practising Business and or Life Coach.

We have been delivering and developing this Award-Winning and fully Accredited training course (ANLP / AC / IANLP) for over 25 years. We have been pleased that the quality of the training and the support we give our students has been recognized in recent years by several awarding institutes.
