Curious about what happens at a genuine International NLP Certification, wanting to compare your own manual to ours, or just fascinated by the whole field of NLP. NLP is not a secret society. Come on in and check it out. This is a manual and not a reference book. If what you are seeking is a reference on NLP, you are better to buy some of our other books such as "Outframes" (co-written by Richard Bolstad and Julia Kurusheva). This is the manual for our 18 day International NLP Practitioner Certification course, approved by IANLP and IN, and run in Europe, Asia and Australasia. None of these techniques should be used without skilled teaching at such a training. Dr Richard Bolstad is a trainer with the International Association of NLP, the International Association of NLP Institutes, and five other International training organisations. He teaches each year in Asia, Europe, the Middle East and New Zealand. Richard's doctoral project was based on the work that he did training psychiatrists and social workers in Bosnia-Herzegovina to deal with the psychological trauma of the Balkan wars. He has a New Zealand Diploma of Teaching and two decades of experience teaching in the tertiary field in New Zealand.
