The Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma (HPD) is a qualification instigated in June 2002 and accredited jointly by the NCH and NCFE. The HPD is the first open to all, nationally accredited Diploma in Hypnotherapy.

Both the NCFE and the NCH bring you this jointly accredited credential in the interests of consolidating hypnotherapy training into an externally verified qualification. The Learning Outcomes for the HPD are in line with the National Occupational Standards for Hypnotherapy.

The HPD can be gained in two ways:

1) via a NCH Accredited Training School or

2) the Individual Portfolio Route, for experienced and qualified therapists
