Sometimes life can just seem like an uphill struggle but you see others sailing through and succeeding. Do any of the following sound familiar?:

	"I know I'm capable of more but I don't quite know how to make it happen"
	"I just want a better quality of life - it can't be that hard can it?"
	"I think I'm treating people well but all I get is negativity and lack of interest"
	"I'm working hard but feel like life is passing me by"
	"I want the confidence to be able to choose the life I want"
	"I want to be more sure of what to do next"
	"I want more choice and to feel capable of more change"

Well now is the time to do something about it. Invest in yourself for your success and happiness and make a positive difference to those around you. NLP offers the very latest tools in human development and offers you the chance to think about your life in a whole different way.

Why you might be considering an NLP Practitioner Course

	You have achieved many things in life but you know there is more
	You have heard about NLP and seen the results in others
	You want to know how others achieve success
	You want to build the confidence to choose the life you want
	You want more satisfaction and fulfilment in your life
	You want some effective tools for dealing with the pressures and opportunities that your work and personal life bring you

NLP has been defined and used in many ways. In essence NLP is the study of excellence in others - how successful individuals actually do the things they do. First used with therapists more than 30 years ago, NLP is now being used in many fields to model and coach excellence. NLP is at the forefront of personal development and developing all the time. Don't miss the boat - come and learn practical tools that will transform your work and personal life.

The ABL NLP Practitioner will

	Accelerate your own personal development
	Give you the confidence and tools to design the life you want
	Enhance your 'People' skills dramatically
	Provide you with powerful tools to understand yourself and others
	Show you how to model success in others and transfer what you learn to yourself
	Create profound change in yourself in line with the person that you want to be

A practitioner course is just the start of your learning. Once you have the foundations of NLP in your grasp you will have hold of a whole new way of learning and looking at the world.

How others will see you after completing the ABL
NLP Practitioner

	Happier, calmer, more in control and more purposeful
	Clearer about what you want in life and how to get it
	More effective and confident when dealing with others
	More encouraging, inspirational and less judgemental
	More successful in your work and personal life

You know what it's like. You go on a great course then try and take the learning back to work. It's difficult sometimes because people essentially like you to stay the way you are. You may encounter subtle resistance that seems to be encouraging but is really 'keeping you in your place'. NLP is different. You will not only learn about how your own mind works but also about the personal systems that surround you and influence you. And now you can have the tools to make changes in those systems and relationships to give yourself and others a better working life - not just a working life but a life that works for you.

Specifically what will you learn?

About yourself How your mind works and what strategies work best for you How to put yourself and others in the right state of mind How to rise to challenges in a way that energises you How to be as approachable as you want to be How to be credible and authentic How to be noticed and appreciated How to understand and improve your own decision-making processes How your beliefs and values influence your behaviour About Others How to communicate and work with anyone How to build the best relationships in your life How to develop a climate of trust How to get people to listen to you and know that they understand How to pick up cues to how people are really thinking and feeling How to deal with even the most difficult people How to resolve personal conflicts How to notice and change your effect on others About Achievement and Performance How to know what you really want and achieve it How to negotiate your way through life How to work with integrity and passion How to understand and use the power of language How to coach rather than manage How to give feedback that really works How to manage your boss How to create the working life that you want

When and How? - Uniquely Flexible

The ABL NLP Practitioner is split in to six 3-day modules running from Friday to Sunday. Each one focuses on specific concepts in NLP and how to really use these in your life. Each module is self-standing and can be taken as a separate course by itself and in any order. You may only be interested in certain applications and we have given each course a theme to focus on specific practical uses of NLP. You can design your own NLP training experience and focus on what you want when you need it.

Once you have completed all the main modules the final module puts all the learning together and you apply your own flexibility in practical situations. You will be a fully certified NLP Practitioner - a qualification that is increasingly recognised and valued.

All this in a uniquely supportive environment where by the end of the course you will have made new life-long friends and be a real-life practitioner of tools to ensure your life is working for you.

Here is a summary of each module. For more information click on the title.

I found it very clear and comprehensive in that it covered all the criteria that I have ever come across in my twenty years of teaching NLP." Sue Knight (Author of 'NLP at Work') "This is a very useful guide - I've occasionally sent enquirers a page or so of criteria of what to look for in a practitioner course but this is far more comprehensive."

Where did you hear about ABL?

How is ABL different?

The ABL NLP Practitioner focuses on developing experience with tools, concepts and techniques that you can readily use. As well as the content that you will find on other high-quality courses we have added additional features to ensure your learning is practical, thorough and complete:

	A range of trainers give a diverse experience of what NLP really means and how it can be practically used. We believe it's important for you to understand the different takes on NLP so you can use what is right for you. We aim to give you the richest training experience possible.
	A full Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI™) profile, the most accepted profiling tool used in business today (a value of £200+). Find out what your MBTI™ type is and have it explained to you by fully qualified MBTI™ practitioners. The MBTI™ Type Indicator maps across to many NLP concepts and you will gain significant added depth of understanding of NLP and psychological profiling through exploration of these links.
	Active support for networking during and after the course, both face-to-face and through an on-line forum. There is so much to learn from all the participants and we aim to make that as easy as possible.
	Optional personal and business projects built in to the course to bring your learning alive. There is simply no better way to learn than to use the tools you will learn in real life. We support you in that process throughout the course and beyond.
	The inclusion of two excellent resource books on NLP as well as comprehensive course notes and materials you can use outside the course. Joseph O'Connor's 'NLP Workbook' - a great reference source for the history and applications of NLP. Sue Knight's 'NLP at Work' -  simply a great book on practical jargon-free NLP.

Let's add that up. That's more than £650+ of additional value included in the course. And these are not just add-ons for the sake of it. All will significantly enhance your learning experience beyond what you will experience on many other practitioner courses.
