How you are assessed
Observed sessions, a supervised case log, and a written safety-and-evidence case, marked by Oliver Grant. Written feedback with one free resubmission. A pass is longer assessed practice than the skills programme. It is not eligibility to apply to CNHC. Work that claims otherwise does not pass.
Our accreditation applications are in progress. We do not display an accreditation mark before it is granted — see the current status.
After you pass
- Consent and case-log templates
- Certificate wording that names CNHC as a separate route
- Signposting to CNHC eligibility and verifying organisations
What is the hypnotherapy register pathway programme?
A longer live cohort than our skills programme, with observed sessions and a supervised case log that can fail. It maps CNHC's published education rules so you can see what we are not. It is not CNHC eligibility. The Guild is not an education provider for that register, and the certificate will not print that we are.
Does this programme make you eligible for CNHC registration?
No. CNHC requires education and training that meets its core curriculum and National Occupational Standards. Courses delivered entirely by distance learning do not meet those requirements. Eligibility is verified through CNHC's published routes, not by a Guild certificate that borrowed the word practitioner.

How is this different from Hypnotherapy Practitioner Skills?
Skills is ten weeks of observed practice and a hard stop at the register. This pathway is sixteen weeks with a case log and core-curriculum literacy. Both refuse CNHC education-provider status. Choose skills if you needed someone to watch a session. Choose this if you wanted a longer log without a fake eligibility stamp.
Can you legally practise hypnotherapy without CNHC registration?
Yes. The title is unprotected. Insurers, directories and informed clients still ask about a PSA-accredited register. Legal freedom is not the same as a checkable quality signal. This programme will not pretend a longer Guild pass is that signal. If you need the register, start from CNHC and work backwards to an eligible school.
Common questions
Why not wait until you are a CNHC education provider?
Because specialists can review a longer observed product now, and we would rather print the limit than fake eligibility.
Does live-online count as distance learning?
CNHC's eligibility page is the source. We will not invent a ruling that lets us claim eligibility we have not been granted.
I already passed the skills programme — do I need this?
Only if you wanted the longer case log and the register map. It still will not put you on CNHC.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes. Interest-free plans total exactly £499.
