CHA Recognised Training and OPD Recommendations

Embarking on a career in hypnotherapy can be highly fulfilling.

Please note that the information regarding courses on this website may not be exhaustive, as there could be other courses meeting CHA professional membership standards that we are unaware of.

For institutions seeking inclusion in our list or individuals wanting to discuss training-related matters, please reach out to the CHA via Contact Us. The team will reach out to you with the criteria required for recognition.

While the CHA maintains a roster of training providers offering courses adhering to CHA professional and/or clinical standards, membership registration and the corresponding certification are not limited to applicants from these courses. Both registration and industry-based awards are open to suitably qualified practitioners.

How can you determine which training organizations are endorsed by the CHA? - If you're contemplating enrolling in a hypnotherapy course, ensuring acceptance by your chosen association is crucial. To streamline this process, consider the following:

 1. Check if your school is listed among CHA-recognized schools. These schools strive to facilitate hassle-free membership for their graduates.

 2. Ensure that the course you're undertaking aligns with the information provided. Some schools may offer shorter courses, but the CHA might only acknowledge the diploma.

As you commence your course, consider becoming a member of the CHA. With a CHA-recognized school, your membership is free, and you'll be eligible to go to the next level with ease.

The CHA operates independently of any specific school or training institution, acknowledging that each institution teaches hypnosis and hypnotherapy uniquely. However, certain core subjects must be covered to meet the CHA's standards.
