How to pay for your course
Payment is either by:
Course Extensions Periods
Extensions are available and are charged for each additional month.
For Legal Reasons and fairness to all those who have requested extensions there is an extension period available for those in difficulty. Extensions are available and charged for EACH ADDITIONAL MONTH at £45.00. This charge applies to everyone.
Please Note: The Company does not wish to profiteer from extension periods and would prefer that you completed your 6 month course on time. Extensions were introduced on the 15/11/11 as a result of the amount of people requesting them due to their inability to meet the 6 month deadline.
If you wish to obtain an extension period, please POST to us in writing a clear covering letter including your full contact details and student number outlining your extension request with cheque payment (Payable to Open College UK Ltd) anytime before your expiry date to the above address and your 6 month course will be automatically extended for you. Extension requests must be made before the 6 month deadline.
Extension Fees:
£45.00 for one month.
£90.00 for two months and so on.
Limit 6 months.
The extension periods will start exactly from the course expiry date as stated on your Membership Certificates.
No Certificates or Memberships will be issued for the extra extension periods. Extensions apply only to the course/s and not to the MOC or SFTR Memberships.
You can pay for additional extensions here.

No, all your work is carried out at your home. The course work folder is then sent to us through the post at the end of your course period in one go. All Diplomas Courses are studied via distance learning – at your home only so that no attendance is required. A Level courses, however differ and do require attendance at an examination centre near you. See A Level Courses for further details. (This only applies to A Level Courses and not Diploma Courses.

Just 30 mins per eve would be ample for most of our courses. Small study periods/chunks at a time is more than enough. There is no dead lines to meet or pressure. Courses vary from 75, 100, 150, 200 hours study time.
All courses are valid for 6 months from the date of enrolment.
Expiry dates are printed on all student membership certificates which are enclosed within course material packs.
Most courses can easily be completed within 3 to 6 months.
You have six clear months to complete your course. Most courses can be easily completed in 2, 3, 4, up to 6 months.
Your course material pack and enrolment with us will expire and become invalid. To earn your Diploma with us you would be required to complete your course within the outlined 6 months deadline unless you apply for an extension. Details on extensions are included within your course pack study guide.
Beginners/inexperienced are ideally suited to our courses. All other experienced therapists from varied walks of life are also ideally suited to the courses including the ‘highly experienced’ out of touch.
All our courses have been reduced from several hundred pounds for the low promotional period. The quality of the course is more than excellent. You will receive more TOP QUALITY materials from us than many other well known course providers. This we know is a fact. Often we have had to tidy up the mess and pick up the pieces that other course providers have made with some of our clients and students. We can bring our courses to you for the low fees simply because we have special deals on certain course materials with certain publishers, stationers and suppliers. We also have an excellent and successful national business marketing structure in place. The more students we receive the lower we can bring our fees to you!
We cannot say exactly except that we review our courses and fees each month. Please note: Prices can change at any time without any prior notice.
It will only be a few days/a week. Upon payment clearance. If you enclosed an email address on your order form then you will be notified of despatch and expected arrival times.

This speedy despatch can be discussed and arranged upon prior.
You won’t fail with us. All our students pass, we make sure you are up to scratch and those that cannot can be issued with a Certificate of completion as opposed to a Diploma award. So you are in safe hands. Please don’t worry about this. We will make sure all our students are satisfied with what they have paid for.
Unfortunately, the answer has to be no. One course per student only.
Some courses take a few months on average. Most learn our courses in 1, 3 up to six months.

In the meantime support is available to take your enquires through email between 9am to 5 pm.

No, just a series of very effective established psychological techniques & language structures that can be learned by anyone wishing to succeed.
There’s been no recorded deaths within hypnosis or hypnotherapy sessions but many within the medical profession.
We will not engage in religious delusional and ignorant beliefs. We are therapists using psychological techniques to help, heal, cure and or correct if we can the way people negatively think and feel in their lives and to alleviate their symptoms. Lack of understanding and fear causes so many misconceptions. To learn more about what hypnosis is not read about hypnosis lower down in the hypnosis course section.
Hypnosis is described in the above link section. Hypnotherapy however is the application of an applied therapy using hypnosis in various forms.
Hypnotists have to be successful to survive.
No, not if you don’t want to, but you are advised to. Becoming a member of a professional body such as the SFTR gives you protection in the event of anyone making a malpractice claim against you in a court of law. Any professional governing body can act as an umbrella if ever you should need it. Also when applying for professional insurance cover you will be asked within the proposal, application what professional body you are a member of.
Hypnotists and hypnotherapists charge around £40 to £60 for a 30, 40 to 60 minutes session in the UK, this is the average and going rate. If you charge £45 per client for an hour session, and receive one client per night from Monday to Saturday that will earn you £270 per week, that’s £1,080 per month extra income that’s £12,960 per year or double if you see two clients per day! This is within the grasp of any newly starting out hypnotist, just one or two clients per day or evening as a start.
