Please read the prospectus carefully. If, after reading it, there is anything you are not clear about or you have further queries about any aspect of NCHP training, please do not hesitate to contact us (( 01282 699378)

Decide which venue and course you would like to attend. Course dates and venues are detailed here. Full information about your chosen training venue will be included upon application.

Once your application forms are received at the Nelson office, your references will be taken up and your application considered. Occasionally, we may request further information or ask you to attend an interview. If you wish, you can also ask for a personal interview with the Principal. However, brief, prior interviews are not usually conducted as we consider one aspect of the Stage One Foundation Course to be, in effect, an extended 'country house' style interview, where prospective therapists can be most effectively assessed as they interact with other students and tutors.

If your application is unsuccessful we will write to you and return, in full, any payment you included with your application. We may also make recommendations about suitable additional training we consider would be beneficial for you to undertake before reapplying.

When you receive your course materials please check that all contents are included. You should make your travel plans and read through the course notes for the first weekend. If you have any last minute queries, please contact the Nelson office, where the staff will be pleased to help.

If your application is successful, you will be offered a place on your preferred course if a place is available or, if the course is full, on the next available course. Your payment will be processed and you will be sent a binder containing the course materials.

If your preferred course starts within the next six months, complete the Student Application Form and the Course Enrolment Form .  Please return the two forms, along with your passport photographs and payment.

If your preferred course does not start within the next six months, or the dates of future courses are not yet available, simply complete and return the Student Application Form . In this case, you do not need to send the Course Enrolment Form or payment. Your application will be processed and, if successful, you will be informed of  the details of future Stage One courses.  You may then return the Course Enrolment Form, with payment, nearer the start of the course.
