The Institute for Conscious Awareness
Hypnotherapy Certification Course

Text and Class

Reading the course text, Clinical Hypnotherapy: A Transpersonal Approach, By Dr. Allen S. Chips, before the hypnotherapy course begins will provide the student with an understanding of concepts and definitions of subjects to be covered in this 100-hour course.

The 100-hours will be divided as follows: 20 hours of in class discussion of text materials and in class practice; 3 hours of seminar attendance; 7 hours of outside lab work on in-class projects; 70 hours of post class experience including book work, induction, research assignment and final exam.
Approximately 95% of the final exam is based on information from within the course text. 100% of the test material can be located for study within the “training Manual.” Approximately 50% of the material presented during the course is derived from information sources outside of the text, such as experiential learning, therapeutic interventions, case histories, professional policy, research and practiced methodology.

Scholastic requirements for Certification: The final exam is open book, multiple choice. It will be handed out at the beginning of class and is due near the end of class, is when it will be graded. The research assignment (3-5 pages) and the Induction Assignment (assigned in class) may be turned=2 0in at anytime within 30 days of the last day of class (or before the class ends.) In order for certification to be issued, tuition must be paid in full and four grading categories must be fulfilled: 1. the research assignment; 2. the induction assignment; 3. the final exam (80% correct or better); 4 the attendance requirement (75%). If you have specific questions, please feel free to ask a member of the Awareness Institute staff. Turn in Assignments to the AIH administration or mail assignments to The Awareness Institute of Hypnotherapy Inc. home office. (**************)

The Assignment is due within 30 days of the end of class. Choose a book that contains information relation to a specific interest you have within the field of hypnotherap y.

After reading, answer the following questions in five handwritten pages or three double-spaced typed pages.

Include the following information:

1. Which of the author’s methods do you believe is the most effective in producing positive results? Give a case history or example from the book.
2. As a hypnotherapist, which techniques discussed in the book do you plan to utilize and which will you avoid using? Why?
3. Summarize the book.

2. Revise one in the manual: One may use an induction in the manual as the basis for the induction.
