Note:- The National College of Hypnosis and Psychotherapy™ has meaningful external accreditation, notably with the UK Council for Psychotherapy, European Association for Psychotherapy and the European Association for Hypno-Psychotherapy.Education. The National College courses attract substantial Open University-specific credit rating and demonstrable access to other areas of reputable higher education.

Additional Note: Some enquirers have asked why the National College is not affiliated with certain "Hypnotherapy Organisations". It is our policy that we will only align ourselves with organisations which have meaningful and verifiable means of accreditation. The profession has many organisations which will give you a certificate for a fee. We, as one of the oldest schools of professional hypnosis and psychotherapy, believe that we should take a leadership position with this and not support bodies which have only been created to give out meaningless credentials and to turn a profit for its owners.

Statutory Regulation of Psychotherapists

In July 2009, the Professional Liason Group (PLG) of the Health Professions Council (HPC) has made its report into the Staturory Regulation of Psychotherapy and Counselling. Whilst there have been some issues about the HPC becoming the regulator for the profession, the NCHP supports completely the efforts being made on the profession's behalf by the UKCP. The UKCP has made a statement about this consultation which can be found by clicking here.

In October 2009, the UKCP has made it's reply to the HPC consultation document on the State Regulation of Psychotherapy and Counselling. The reply can be read here

Note to potential students wishing to become Hypno-Psychotherapists: Whilst the term Hypno-Psychotherapist and Hypno-Psychotherapy are currently not protected by statute, with events in the UK moving towards eventual statutory regulation of Psychotherapy, one should ensure that the training you undertake is accredited by the UK Council for Psychotherapy, the European Association for Hypno-Psychotherapy and/or the European Association for Psychotherapy. These organisations are involved with the implementation of the regulation of the psychotherapy profession in both the UK and Europe. The National College is very much in favour of State or Statutory Regulation of the Profession to protect the public from rogue or poorly qualified "therapists"
