The College of Healing Practitioner Course is suitable for people who already have an understanding and experience of giving Healing.
To qualify for entry on this course you must have completed one of the following:
- The College of Healing Foundation Course;
- The College of Healing Self-Care and Self-Healing Course, as well as the Introductory Course in Spiritual and Energy Healing; OR
- You can show that you have the basic knowledge and understanding of Spiritual and Energy Healing necessary to attend the course
You will also need to attend an interview.
The course is not suitable during pregnancy or within 5 years of taking any recreational drugs. The College reserves the right not to accept a person we deem is not prepared or not suitable for the course.
Our flagship Practitioner course prepares you to draw out your natural Healing skills and to deepen your spiritual and personal development.
You are entering a journey of spiritual discovery. The first step is a deeper understanding of yourself, then of those around you and your clients.
Our ethos is a diligent service to humanity. Working with the Healing energies inspires you to enhance your unique inner qualities and abilities. You are embracing and cultivating your Inner Healer.
Our tutors are all College of Healing trained and are experienced practitioners in their own right. We aim for a 1/6 tutor to student ratio with each student being allocated a Tutor/Mentor. The tutors will teach the skills and philosophy of the College, which will underpin the discovery of how each individual student works most effectively. Are you clairvoyant (receive information visually), clairaudient (hearing), clairsentient (receive information via your physical body)? Do you learn best via the written word, the spoken word, by physical activity?
At the end of the course some of our students go on to set up a professional healing practice, some incorporate their new skills and understanding into their existing work and life and some continue to work on their personal and spiritual development.
Our Practitioner course has been continually developed and reviewed since its creation in 1983 and offers you the legacy of our 40 years’ experience; and a spiritual home. Our course is held in high esteem within the Healing world as a whole, due to the strength, passion and commitment of Diane O’Connell, one of our College Founders.
As well as healing skills the course highlights areas of spiritual growth within our students and we ask that you undergo your own monthly Healing sessions to allow you to continue your self-development outside the teaching environment.
As you grow you become less easily affected by emotional and environmental influences and able to respond better to life’s challenges.
The Practitioner Course meets the UK National Occupational Standards for Healing and is accredited by UK Healers. Successful completion of the course allows graduates to register with The Complementary National Healthcare Council (CNHC) and the General Regulatory Council for Complementary Therapies (GRCCT). The College of Healing is a member of The Confederation of Healing Organisations (CHO).
