Note the required number of demonstrations for each skill in each type of Examination. Live Exams should be scheduled with a Certified Examiner. Please note that Video Exams require that the hypnotist work with a minimum of five different trance partners. Periodically, special intensive review courses are offered in which participants are allowed a streamlined variation of the Video Exam requiring only one trance partner and one demonstration of each skillset. See certification guidelines for further information.For those looking for an intensive review to supplement live training or a distance learning option, the Comprehensive Core Skills Hypnosis DVD Program includes explanations and demonstrations for all of the skillsets required for Certification as a Hypnotist member with the Society of Experiential Trance (please note, the video program also contains a number of other methods in addition to the minimum required for SET certification).
