For a description of SCS Workshops and certification programs, see Workshop Descriptions and Benefits.

When you review the programs, you may discover that you really love the SCS/NLP technology—but don’t learn it unless it’s the right thing for you. Even if you think about it now and really want it, you’re not going to use it unless it’s the right thing for you.

Until you learn to close your eyes and see the ways in which you will use it with the different people in your life—and, in your mind, hear yourself using the technology in ways that feel absolutely right for you ... then and only then will you learn it quickly and easily, seeing opportunities where you can hear yourself using it in ways that will now help you and others feel ecstatically happy for years and years to come. When you realize how and why you want it, you can learn it even better now.

All SCS workshops include appropriate training manuals. The manual for our language-based trainings (SCS Level 2, “Healing with Language”; “Radical Healing”; “Introduction to NLP”; and the NLP Practitioner and Master Practitioner workshops) contains more than 300 pages and has been called the best NLP training and reference manual in the industry. Read-only versions of the SCS training manuals are available for downloading for those interested in training with SCS. For access to the training manuals, please send a brief message telling us a bit about yourself, your previous training, and the SCS programs that interest you the most.

All SCS workshops come with perpetual tuition, ensuring that you will be able to keep your skills current by retaking any workshop you’ve completed for only $25 a day. Our Fast Track Option allows you to receive credit for previous certifications. As an added benefit, SCS pays 10 percent for referrals who complete a workshop with us.

Seeing the Divine in Everyday Life: 7 Keys to Joyful Living

Course Description: What stops you from being more joyful more of the time? The great psychologist William James said, “Compared with what we ought to be, most of us are only half awake. Our energy is far below the maximum.” The reasons for this are complex, actually starting before we were born. This workshop is designed to facilitate your unraveling the beliefs that have prevented your feeling fully awake and joyful and to help you claim your rightful affiliation with the Divine, what nineteenth-century poet William Blake described as seeing a World in a grain of sand, holding infinity in the palm of your hand, and experiencing eternity in an hour.

Who will benefit from this workshop? You will benefit from this workshop if you are ready to give up the beliefs that have limited your capacity for joyful living and if you want to experience more joy in your life and develop your appreciation for the sacred. You will also benefit from this workshop if you work with others—family, friends, patients, or clients—who have been slow to change in ways they know would enhance their capacity for happiness and success.

This isn’t just another “Be Here Now” workshop. Our objectives are for you to rediscover the joyful core of your being that makes every moment sacred, regardless of what you are doing and to help ensure that you will discover those things that enhance your capacity for joyful living.

Special: this is a “pay it forward”program. Check with Debra for details.

Introduction to NLP

Course Description: This workshop provides an overview of NLP with emphasis on what we call “The Big Three”—Anchoring, Submodality Shifts, and Advanced Language Patterns. The workshop will allow you to explore the fundamentals of NLP so that you can decide that you want to know more, while teaching you a number of valuable strategies for enhancing your subtle communication skills and inoculating you against being influenced in unwanted ways by others, including advertising and political speeches.

Who will benefit from this workshop? You will benefit from this workshop if you are curious about NLP and are ready to decide whether and how much you will enjoy learning more about it. Now—June on the shore of Lake Michigan—is a wonderful time to satisfy your curiosity.

August 2008

NLP Intensive: Licensed Practitioner or Licensed Master Practitioner

Course Description: The Practitioner/Master Practitioner intensive is designed to provide you with a complete set of NLP skills and the flexibility to know which skill to use when. To qualify for Master Practitioner Certification, you must have completed Practitioner-level certification within the past 5 years. The SCS approach includes the development of cognitive understanding combined with an extensive experiential foundation based on directed practice. The intensive also includes correlations with Energy-based healing modalities, which makes it the ideal NLP instruction for those trained in Energy medicine and those who are Energy aware.

Who will benefit from this workshop? You will benefit from this workshop if you desire to be more effective in everything you do. NLP has been called “manipulative” because it is so effective at helping you get what you most desire. Because the tool is neutral, the morality is in the user. The SCS approach to NLP helps ensure that those trained in the skills will use them in beneficial ways. If you want to help others—even as you are helping yourself—this workshop is for you.

Location: South Haven, Michigan

Facilitators: Debra and Joel

Dates: Friday, 1 August through Sunday, 10 August
Times: 10A to 4P all 10 days

Investment: $2500 (Includes certification through Dr. Richard Bandler and The Society of NLP). Successful completion qualifies you for membership in the American Board of Hypnotherapy (ABH) as a Licensed Hypnotherapist.
