Ongoing or Continuing Professional Education Programs
Allocating CPE Points
In many parts of the world these programs are requirement of many various professions for Government Registration Boards or to Board Certification. Many Hypnotherapy Associations and Hypnosis Guilds have introduced an Ongoing or Continuing Professional Education (CPE) requirement to the membership requirements. However, many association members question the need for Ongoing Education which can make it very frustrating to the Education sub-committees to implement and maintain these programs. As such, many Associations do all they can to assist members to make their annual point requirements. Below is an example:

Online Study Courses
Finding Online Courses
As can be seen in the CPE Table above, there are many ways to attain the annual point requirements. One of the best and most convenient ways to extend the practitioners hypnotherapy knowledge is to do an online course. However there are lots of online courses. How can all these courses be evaluated and have points allocated to them. One way is to evaluate each course individually. Another way is to use trusted providers who already have a proven track record. The courses below are from a proven provider who has allocated points to each course. On passing the final tests they will provide a Certificate of Attainment to the Practitioner that can be added to their CPE Diary. Below is a list of course from free to paid. The free courses do not have CPE Allocated, but there is no reason why they could not.
