Hi Basir,

Thanks for your reply,

The first comment I'd make is to ask you to clarify whether you want to be a financial coach using NLP approaches or a 'pure' NLP coach.

It's normally easier (but not essential) to coach in an area that you're familiar with. It's normally easier to get into rapport with the people you're working with - and you may have years of experience to offer - which may make your skills a lot more marketable.

The second is that to set up as a coach you need at least three or four sets of skills. You need to be able to market / sell your services, you need to good at NLP / coaching, if you have a specialist subject you need to be up to date with that and finally you need to look after your own health / self development.

I mention these because while an NLP course will help you become good at NLP and coaching and to some extent help you with the other aspects I mention - You may need other training, coaching or specialist resources to help you with the whole package.

You may of course already have many of these skills!

I'm not sure the situation in Malaysia, where I'm sure prices and whats on offer is different. However this is what we offer in the UK.

NLP Practitioner accreditation (8 days) £1600+VAT

NLP Coaching Practitioner accreditation (11 days) £2400+VAT
(This is the same as the practitioner accreditation + a 3 day coaching module)

NLP Master Practitioner accreditation (9 days) £2200+VAT

If you were to take this route I'd spend a bit of time checking out your training / coaching supplier to check they offered what you wanted.

I'd expect anyone calling themselves an NLP coach to at least have a coaching practitioner, and most of the best coaches I know have continued their training over many years.

While its not necessarily easy, its a great and rewarding profession.
