Members Forum IANLP
- Attendance: Is 75% attendance ok by the IANLP?
Question: "In our country it is common practice to ask students to be present in school a certain percentage of the total schooling time only. How do you treat this at the IANLP?" - Duration: intensive trainings vs. long term trainings
Question: "What if one has a NLP Practitioner training over an extended period of time while somebody else runs a NLP summer practitioner within the time frame of 3 weeks only?" - Why there is no level 'Coaching with NLP' at the IANLP
Question: "I am writing to know what are the requirements to be able to certify my students in Coaching with NLP?"

New workshop section on www.ia-nlp.org

- Compliance with Code of Ethics of the IANLP.
- This is a free and voluntary service offered by the IANLP to all registered FMTs.
- The offers are not audited by the IANLP and IANLP has no responsibility for the offers.

Fraud Alert by the NLP Leadership Summit

More and more we are seeing online, short, cheap, quick and inferior courses calling themselves NLP Practitioner Certification. They are not. As an initiative of the NLP Leadership Summit, we wish to share the following message:
“Before you register or complete an online or short course claiming to be an NLP Practitioner Certification, please check to make sure the course is recognized by a National and/or International NLP Association.
Globally, NLP Associations set the standards of content and time so you can be assured that your NLP training meets these standards. The quality of your learning and the quality of the future of NLP requires the adherence to standards, assessment requirements and in-person supervised training.”
And to make the situation even more confusing, IANLP is one of the very few standards asking for a minimum duration of 18 days / 130 hours face-to-face on-site training time. As it has been set by the initiator group of NLP trainers in the 1980-ies and incorporated into the guidelines of the IANLP upon foundation in 1983.
Proud to be IANLP!
So folks, if you have graduated under IANLP standards, post 'IANLP' to your site, print 'IANLP' on your business cards. Be proud to have graduated under one of the world's most successful yet rigorous and convincing NLP set of guidelines.
Steve Andreas died

One of the most important pioneers and developers of NLP has died: The NLP community worldwide mourns the death of Steve Andreas. He died on September 7, 2018 at the age of 82.
Steve founded one of the most important NLP training institutes in the USA ("NLP Comprehensive") and published several standard works as a publisher.
With sadness, great gratitude and appreciation we read the words of his family
