Level One
This EFT International Accredited training is your entryway to a series of progressive, structured courses that can take you from novice to certified practitioner over 18-24 months. It is an essential companion for self-supporters, giving you the tools and knowledge you need to work effectively on your own issues.
The course will give you an overview of the origins and development of EFT, together with an introduction to the science of EFT and its research field. You will be introduced to the basics of using tapping to reduce stress responses; firstly with no-words tapping, and then with words using the standard EFT protocol, and EFT’s foundational process, ‘The Movie Technique’.
We will test out our new EFT skills by treating aches and pains, cravings, everyday irritations and little fears. You will learn the importance of being specific, persistent, and searching for the ‘Aspects’ of an issue through kind, curious and careful questions and techniques. You will understand how we use measuring and testing with EFT to stay safe and check the effectiveness of the treatment.
At Level One the focus is on ourselves, our self-care, and clearing the emotional and physical blocks in ourselves that will enable us to be cleaner and clearer practitioners, free from an agenda or need to influence or control our client’s process. In EFT we call this, ‘getting out of our own way’, and we find that an ability to do this greatly increases the power, effectiveness, and efficiency of our sessions. You will have an opportunity to practise using EFT for yourself, which is a skill in its own right and learn tips for doing this well.
We will cover safety and staying in the shallow end as you go out into your life and work after the training. Step by step, slowly and safely, towards sure progress is our mantra. You need to develop trust and confidence in the tapping and in your delivery to have the best possible experience with clients. At this stage, my advice will be to focus on tapping with yourself and with family and friends, but if you are keen to bring it to your clients already we will talk about safe ways to do this, and safe issues to work with.
I recommend leaving at least 2-3 months of regular practice (longer if you are not working regularly with people), between a Level One and Level Two course. This is to ensure that you process and integrate the foundational techniques, as well as get a good start with your self-healing and clearing.
As many practice sessions as possible, as soon as possible, will ensure that you consolidate the learning in your brain and body. It is a great idea to set up practice chains with the other participants in your course, as you will all be at the same stage and feel safe to get it wrong and get it right with each other.
A follow-up group mentoring session is included in your training fee and is scheduled approximately two weeks after the training. This is for any questions you have following your practice sessions with yourself and friends, as well as any reminders needed for applying the techniques.
When you look at the full EFT International syllabus for Level One that we cover in this training you will understand why Gwyneth and I choose to deliver it in person over a full two days rather than just one day, or in combination with Level Two.
I’m Jessica, and I am a trauma-informed, EFT International Trainer, Mentor and Advanced Practitioner. I’m also a UK trained educator, experienced facilitator and an expert by experience in the trauma recovery field.
I completed all levels of EFTi training and specialist EFT workshops with EFT Founding Master and Master Trainer of Trainers Gwyneth Moss, going on to reach Accredited Advanced Practitioner status and then Master Trainer status with her. I have assisted Gwyneth on numerous L1, 2, and 3 training courses, and co-presented with her in specialist EFT workshops. I have greatly appreciated and benefited from Gwyneth’s vast knowledge, experience, and expertise with EFT, as well as her 20 year plus involvement with the history and development of EFT, from Gary Craig’s original training to the very latest developments in the present.
As Gwyneth is currently not offering public training, I’m pleased to be able to offer a connection to Gwyneth’s thorough and innovative curriculum and lively, grounded delivery in my own L1, 2, and 3 training.
At present training is delivered online using Google Workspace. It is active, interactive and participatory.
At each training level, the tuition is a combination of taught content, discussion, live demonstration and active participation, with plenty of opportunities for practising the techniques. The taught content, discussions, demonstrations and exercises are live, fluid, and responsive to the unique needs of each training group.
Each training group has its own Google Classroom where I share resources and learning materials with you, and where you will have an opportunity to ask questions and share your learning journey with each other post-training. If you go on after Level Two to take the EFTi accreditation path this will be where feedback on your practice hours and case studies take place, in addition to in-person mentoring sessions.
It will enable you to work skilfully and safely with yourself, family and friends on low-level emotional and physical issues.
You will need a more comprehensive EFT toolbox to work with the public, and with more complex, longer-term issues. If that is your intention then you will enjoy extending your knowledge and furthering your experience with Level 2 training. After which you can pursue accreditation with EFT international as a Certified EFT Practitioner, and at a later date Level 3 training, which will enable you to pursue advanced skills and accreditation as an Advanced Practitioner. Accreditation pathways require further study, practice, case studies, online examination, and mentoring hours in addition to the training courses at L1, 2, and 3.
There are separate fees connected to these accreditation requirements and EFTi membership in addition to the course fees. A full breakdown of all course fees and related fees can be found in this document.
