While it is funny with the cat example, I went to an NLP practitioner before I did my NLP training and knowing what I have found out since I learnt myself I know he did more harm to me than good as well as ripping me off on the money front. I chose him because of a qualification that I found out is meaningless so if it happened to me it probably happened to lots. Lets shut these people down before they drive someone to suicide or something.

I'm very supportive of what you say. And what a story! I merely wish to challenge just one idea. Does George demonstrate that standards in NLP are not good enough? Or that standards in accreditation are not good enough? It's just a question of correct assignment of the problem. (Standards in NLP might not be good enough, in that of all people claiming to be Practitioners, some might not be up to scratch. But I don't think that's what George demonstrates, specifically.) In fairness to the BBNLP, they did say they don't claim to be an accrediting body, merely an organisation that offers member benefits for profit. That said, if wearing the BBNLP badge is meant to be a reassurance to the customer, then clearly better checks are needed. Cheers As always, great article Chris. I’m very supportive of what you say.
