Hi All
As promised, here's my review of the free course that I did on December 1st and 2nd in London, presented by John Cassidy-Rice.
To save me having to explain the 'deal', here's a link to the website
NLP Excellence Training Diploma Certification
So...was it free? Yes it was. I arrived on the first day for registration at 9am, with the course commencing at 9-30am. Coffee and biscuits were provided, as was a course manual / workbook (and a pen).
Although I have never been on an NLP course before, I 'have' been on sales and other such courses. This course was easily the most enjoyable, and informative. John Cassidy-Rice is an entertaining presenter and he obviously has a wealth of knowledge.
The format was: topic introduced, then demonstrated, then we practiced in pairs, or as a group. Backed-up by Powerpoint displays, this was a fast-paced course, yet none of the attendees had any trouble keeping up. It was amazing just how much we covered in the two days.
So...when was the 'big sales pitch'? Well, John spoke for about ten minutes or so, at the latter part of the second day. It was, however, not a 'hard sell'. It seems that the company ethos is: This is us, if you like us, we'd be pleased to provide you with further training.
I whole-heartedly recommend this course, and the company, to anyone who wants to see what NLP is all about. You will learn a great deal in a short space of time. It's a genuine offer and the course materials are of a high quality. They don't do that "stand up and introduce yourself" stuff, which would be a relief to the shy amongst us.
If you are new to NLP and want to do more than just sit around and talk, then TAKE ACTION and book yourself onto their next course.
I'm extremely pleased that I did!
Hope this review has been of help.
John
