What the Basic Hypnotherapy Certification Training Course at ExcelCenter Includes

Updated

ExcelCenter's Basic Hypnotherapy Certification Training Course is a two-day, in-person program priced at $1,550.00, with all materials included. According to the center's own course listing, the fee covers a starter kit and personalized instruction. The course is aimed at people who want foundational hypnosis training, and the center also says it assists those looking to establish their own hypnotherapy business. If you need certification to practice, or want to build a client-facing hypnotherapy service, this is the entry point ExcelCenter advertises.

What the course covers and what you get

The page evidence describes the offering in specific terms:

  • Format: In-person, 2 days
  • Course name: Basic Hypnosis Training Course / Basic Hypnotherapy Certification Training Course
  • Price: $1,550.00
  • Included: All materials, described as a starter kit, plus personalized instruction
  • Registration: A "REGISTER" link is provided on the course listing

The center positions the course alongside its other services — hypnotherapy, counselling, and phone consultations — and notes that it supports clients with self-improvement and educational needs. The certification course is the educational track, distinct from one-on-one client sessions.

Published course dates

ExcelCenter lists the following dates:

Year Dates
2025 May 9 & 10
2026 August 8 & 9

The listing also carries a "Good News: Reopening 15." note, which appears to be an announcement fragment rather than a complete date. Treat the two date pairs above as the confirmed schedule shown on the page, and confirm current availability before making plans, since course dates can shift.

Who this course is for

Based on the center's description, the course suits:

  • Beginners who want a structured, in-person introduction to hypnosis
  • People considering a career change into hypnotherapy
  • Existing practitioners who want a certification credential
  • Anyone who wants to eventually run their own hypnotherapy practice, since the center states it assists with that goal

It is not a self-help audio product. ExcelCenter separately sells downloadable audio series (for example, "Eliminate Anxiety & Depression," "Entrancement Music," "Guided Relaxation," and "Slim & Trim"), which are home-use recordings rather than training.

How to register and what to check first

  1. Go to the course listing on excelcenter.com and use the REGISTER link next to the course.
  2. Confirm the next available date matches the published schedule (May 9–10, 2025 or August 8–9, 2026) or ask whether additional dates have been added.
  3. Verify what the $1,550.00 fee includes in writing — the listing says all materials, a starter kit, and personalized instruction.
  4. Ask about certification requirements in your jurisdiction if you intend to practice, since the page does not state what credential the course confers or where it is recognized.
  5. Check payment options via the site's Payment Options page before committing.

Practical considerations

  • Cost: $1,550.00 is the only price shown for this course. No discounts, deposits, or refund terms appear in the available page content.
  • Location: The center is in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada, and the course is in-person, so travel and accommodation are separate costs the listing does not address.
  • Contact: The site lists a phone number (1-888-686-6163) and an email ([email protected]) for questions.
  • Instructors: The center names Alan Eastman, DCH, PhD, and Ruth Eastman, MCHt. Couns. dip., as its experts, with more than two decades of experience.

If your goal is personal relaxation or habit change rather than a credential, the audio series may be a better fit. If your goal is to practice or teach hypnosis, the two-day certification course is the relevant option — confirm the credential's recognition in your area before enrolling.
