Although Government accredited training is not a lawful requirement to practice as a hypnotherapist in Australia, Career Accelerators offers a fully Government Accredited Certificate IV or Diploma of Clinical Hypnotherapy. For those completing the practitioner training with the Australian Academy of HypnosisTM, you may upgrade to either of these qualifications by choosing to complete the other required modules via distance learning through the RTO for either the Cert IV or the full Diploma and will receive recognised prior learning for the practitioner training. The reverse applies and you can commence studies via distance learning and plan for the face to face practitioner training. Contact : Gwen Ford on 1300 13 14 72. Email cad@acoa.com.au.

2. Does the academy have a training history?
The Australian Academy of HypnosisTM has been training hypnotists since 1996.
3. Does the trainer have a passion for hypnosis? Are they well known and respected in their field? Have they had "Hands On Experience" in all aspects of hypnosis?
Rick Collingwood has 16 years of experience in the field of clinical and therapeutic hypnosis. During the last 12 years through The Australian Academy of Hypnosis he has trained more than 1000 people in the effective use of skills of hypnosis. He has released three series of hypnosis CDs that have won 7 ARIA AWARDS AND sold more than 500,000 copies, he has conducted many group hypnosis seminars in Australia, the UK and the USA with attendances of up to 780 people. He has appeared on A Current Affair, CH7, CH9, CH10 News and more than 100 national and international television and radio programs.
4. Does the training curriculum contain a significant amount of actual supervised inductions with the student being the hypnotist and also the hypnotic subject?
Surprisingly many hypnosis training organisations offer very little practical induction training to their students. We are very strong on practical training. Hypnosis is learned by familiarity.
You Cannot Learn Hypnosis By Reading Books. You Learn Only Hypnosis By Performing Hypnosis!!!!!
There are many hypnosis training organisations that teach only by the book. Although the academy places a high value on the academic and historical aspects of hypnosis, the curriculum is significantly orientated to doing of hypnosis. For this reason once you initial five day training is completed you have the advantages of membership into a strong hypnosis society, endless ongoing supervised induction practice, and the opportunity to undertake further advanced hypnosis studies.

5. Do your fees include grading costs and all required materials?
The Australian Academy of HypnosisTM training materials are all included
in out low fee structure : They Include
- Academy Training Video, featuring three actual in clinic full hypnosis sessions and eight instant and rapid inductions, all explained and demonstrated.
- Three 200+ page, professionally presented, training manuals containing all the vital information you need to know, including full texts for more than twenty different hypnotic inductions.
- Training text books
- All self assessments and examination markings.
- Telephone help.
6. Can or will your trainer hypnotise you?
It is astonishing how many hypnosis trainers will not actually demonstrate their proclaimed hypnosis skills and hypnotise a student, let alone demonstrate the skills and expertise required to induce an effective instant or rapid induction. It is the opinion of Rick Collingwood and The Australian Academy of HypnosisTM that this does not demonstrate hypnotic expertise, so therefore the training will at best create only average hypnotists.
Here Is A Simple Test
Ask your potential trainer to hypnotise you, if they either will not or cannot, then it is only sensible that you look elsewhere. The Australian Academy of HypnosisTM has no objection to inducing hypnosis in any potential student before they commit to our training.
7. Is the training organisation Australian?
The Australian Academy of HypnosisTM is.
