- You can go on to take my specialist courses, to extend your experience.
This course is for those who?
- Have completed Level 1 and 2 EFT training with myself or another recognised AAMET or AMET trainer.
- Have worked with a number of clients effectively, but want to know how to do more for them and how to do it even more rapidly.
- Want to stay up-to-date with developments and be the absolute best they can be.
An on-going training programme
Level 3 is an on-going training programme which has an element of supervision so that you can be supported as you work on more complex issues and with more challenging client issues.
After the initial, exciting two day training, which introduces you to concepts such as NLP and Hypnotic language and helps you to be really in the flow, you’ll receive a Level 3 attendance certificate.
After successfully completing 4 case studies you will receive a Level 3 practitioner Certificate.
To continue as a Level 3 practitioner you need to complete 30 hours of CPD's for each subsequent year. These are designed to be a low cost way to continue at the fore front of EFT and a list of the ways in which you can achieve this are below the course content.

Continuing Personal and Professional Development (CPD)
CPD is not intended as extra work or expense, but simply the normal effort made by conscientious practitioners to develop personally and professionally, and keep up to date. In addition, those who work with others are strongly encouraged to work on clearing their own issues, which may otherwise interfere with their efficacy as a Practitioner, and to repeat trainings with other trainers, particularly at Level 3, to develop a wide perspective.
Examples of CPD include (but are not limited to) the hours spent on:
1. carrying out ANY personal or professional development activity that could reasonably be expected to add to a practitioner’s competency, including:
o attending or delivering ANY professional training (EFT-oriented or otherwise) that could reasonably be expected to add to a practitioner’s competency
o repeating training and/or preparing for further professional accreditation
o writing up and reflecting on the practitioner’s own case studies and/or theory and philosophy of practice
o staying up to date with developments in EFT and/or AAMET
o reading relevant books and newsletters
o regular use of the Personal Peace Procedure and other forms of personal therapy, with or without the help of others
o participating in EFT discussion groups or teleconferences
o establishing a practice and/or documenting the integration of EFT into an existing practice
2. carrying out ANY activity that furthers the interests of the EFT community and/or AAMET, including:
o taking EFT into the community
o developing a specific application of EFT (e.g. for sports or business)
o translating EFT material into another language
o developing a new EFT product/approach with wide application
o carrying out and publishing a relevant research project
o writing and publishing or contributing to a relevant book, e-book or newsletter
o writing up the achievement of a major life ambition with EFT
o moderating EFT tapping or discussion groups or teleconferences, etc
Under these Guidelines, all AAMET practitioners (which includes Levels 2, 3 and AAMET Master, as well as trainers and trainers of trainers) are required to commit to and acquire at least 30 hours of CPD per year in order to maintain their listing on the AAMET practitioner register. In practice, many practitioners accumulate substantially more than this. The hours should ideally be balanced across several CPD categories, and include a reasonable proportion of relevant professional training (either as attendee or as the trainer delivering the training) as described above.
For those practising in the UK, the federal regulator GRCCT requires that:
1. Its registrants complete at least 12 hours continuing professional development a year.
o a minimum of 2 hours of which must be therapy specific, and
o a maximum of 50% of which can be generic, including reflection or research.
2. There is evidence of on-going CPD
3. Practising is undertaken in accordance with National Occupational Standards (NOS)
GRCCT also requires that ‘registrants undertake that within 36 months of admission to the GRCCT national register they will have completed sufficient continuing professional development to ensure that they are practising in accordance with the National Occupational Standard as defined by each therapy group in which they at listed on the national register. For some registrants this may require a substantial level of training.’
Formal NOS have not yet been defined specifically for meridian therapies, however this is a task that the AAMET plans to address in the coming months/years.
The above description of CPD is intended to make it a straightforward matter for all active practitioners to maintain their listing on the AAMET practitioner register (and for those practicing in the UK, if they so choose, the GRCCT national register as well) in a way that is inexpensive and relatively independent of geographical location.
All the CPD gained must be recorded, together with attendance certificates and/or receipts as appropriate, and retained as evidence for at least five years in case this may be asked for by the AAMET and/or GRCCT. A sample of a suggested ‘CPD/Mentoring Record Sheet’ can be downloaded here (Microsoft Word file).
Mentoring
‘Mentoring’ as described here provides practitioners (and trainers) with the opportunity to discuss any issues which, if left unaddressed, could potentially escalate to the point where they undermine the quality of the practitioner’s professional work. For the purposes of these guidelines, mentoring means working with colleagues, either singly or in groups, paid or unpaid, to discuss specific applications of EFT, to share and swap experiences, and to help each other to improve the quality of the EFT while at the same time promoting and protecting the wellbeing of everyone involved. A more detailed description of mentoring can be found at http://www.emofree.com/Articles2/therapist-support-gwyneth.htm. Although mentoring may not always be recognised as supervision by a practitioner’s professional body, for the avoidance of doubt, formal supervision from a trained Supervisor can be counted here as mentoring.
Under these guidelines, practitioners (including trainers and trainers of trainers) who are seeing clients one-to-one or in groups (or training groups) are required to have an absolute minimum of at least six hours one-to-one mentoring each year with a colleague practising at the same, or preferably a higher, EFT level, or at least 12 hours mentoring with a group of colleagues, again practicing at the same or preferably a higher EFT level, or a combination of the two.
In the case of practitioners who are also trainers, it is likely to be even more important that at least some of the mentoring includes a fellow trainer, or preferably a trainer of trainers, however it is up to the individual trainer (perhaps taking advice from her/his trainer of trainers) to determine what may be best for her/him.
Practitioners who see a number of clients on a regular basis, or who regularly train others, will normally choose to engage in substantially more hours of mentoring than the minimum levels listed above, depending on workload. This may or may not be considered part of the formal supervision required by the practitioner’s professional body (or ‘toolbox’ - please see above), however again this is outside the scope of these guidelines.
The mentoring must be formally recorded, together with any attendance certificates and/or receipts as appropriate, and retained as evidence for at least five years in case this may be asked for by the AAMET and/or GRCCT. The form in the appendix can also be used for this purpose.
