- Develop advanced induction methods for pediatric and other special population hypnosis work;
- Learn how to build and maintain a successful, profitable practice, while still maintaining therapeutic relations;

- and Much More
We offer this 30-hour multi-media CEU course in addition to our 20-hour basic Certification program, for two reasons:
- Most hypnosis practitioners desire to receive advanced continuing education training on clinical hypnotherapy (which we encourage, because the more training you have, the better services you will provide), primarily for the reasons stated above in the course descriptions, and to enhance their ICBCH Certification status.
- State of Florida licensed professionals must meet a 50-hour training requirement in order to practice “hypnotherapy” for therapeutic purposes, illness, injury or disease, under Florida Statute Regulations.
- To practice hypnotherapy in any state, one should complete a complete program with depth and focusing on skill development.

ICBCH Advanced Certification
We offer this 30-hour multi-media CEU course in addition to our 20-hour basic Certification program, for two reasons:
- Most hypnosis practitioners desire to receive advanced continuing education training on clinical hypnotherapy (which we encourage, because the more training you have, the better services you will provide), primarily for the reasons stated above in the course descriptions, and to enhance their ICBCH Certification status.

The Homestudy Certification Process
Once you order a homestudy certification program, you will be sent all course study materials, via US Post Office shipping.
These homestudy hypnosis certification programs are self-paced. Most people can easily finish the requirements in under a week, but if obligations keep you away from your studies, you can feel free to take all the time you need to complete the program.
In addition to the course materials, you will also receive the Evaluation of Learning form. This is the exam that you must pass in order to earn your certification (and CEUs, if applicable).
- The 20-hour program exam is entirely True/False, but it is quite comprehensive and covers every aspect of the learning materials.
- The 30-hour program exam is comprised of both True/False questions and brief essay questions, designed to help you demonstrate what you have learned.
- You must score at least 80% in order to pass and receive Certification. Most people who study the material carefully have no trouble passing the first time. Should you not pass, we will notify you, and you will have another chance to take the exam, without cost.
You will also receive the Application for Certification that you must complete and return to us. This form discusses your education and training experience and helps determine your Certification credentialing level.
All course materials are yours to keep for your professional library.
Once you return and we receive your completed documentation, grade your Evaluation of Learning exam and review your Application for Certification, we will award your Certification credentials and send you a Certificate of Achievement (suitable for framing) as well as your ICBCH Membership Certificate (also suitable for framing.) If you qualify for CEU credits, we will also send those Certificates.
If you ever have any questions about the coursework, feel free to contact our office via email or by phone at (800) 684-9766.
