As mentioned on the ITA NLP Trainers website:
John Grinder (co-creator of NLP and New Code NLP), Carmen Bostic St Clair (co-developer of New Code NLP) and Michael Carroll (co-developer of New Code NLP) formed the International Trainers Academy (ITA) as a way to ensure that the NLP Trainers must have the highest standard of NLP trainings before offering NLP courses to the public.
“By selecting an ITA (International Trainers Academy) trainer, you have the assurance that your NLP trainer has been trained and awarded certification as an NLP trainer personally by NLP co-creator John Grinder, New Code NLP co-developers- Carmen Bostic St Clair and Michael Carroll.”
As the official ITA website states:
The mission of the ITA (International Trainers Academy) is to continually improve the quality of NLP Training (NLP Practitioner Certification, NLP Master Practitioner Certification & New Code NLP Practitioner Certification) on offer to the NLP public by ensuring our member NLP Trainers have themselves received the highest quality NLP Trainers Training and testing, and that member NLP trainers are committed to continually develop and enhance their own NLP skills.
John Grinder is keen to ensure that his intentions when co-creating the field of NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) are maintained and the integrity of NLP is preserved for future NLP generations to be built upon.
The International NLP Trainers certified by ITA have been through several evaluations in the NLP Trainers Training.
The evaluations are a real test of the individual’s competency as an NLP Trainer and NLP Coach. The evaluations include:
• Public Speaking
• Presentations
• Presentation Under Challenging Circumstances
• On the spot demonstration of basic to advanced NLP techniques
• 2 Written Examinations of 3 hours each
Due to the high-level NLP Trainer certification criteria, many individuals across the globe have even failed the evaluation. This includes NLP trainers from other international NLP Training Institutes.
By being a member of International NLP certification body of the ITA (International Trainers Academy), the NLP Practitioner, NLP Master Practitioner and New Code NLP Practitioner certificate carries the prestigious signatures of:
• John Grinder (co-creator of NLP and New Code NLP)
• Carmen Bostic St Clair (co-developer of New Code NLP)
• Michael Carroll (co-developer of New Code NLP)
Therefore, the NLP certificate you receive has value in every country in the world.
My NLP Training Institute – Transformative NLP International (T-NLP) provides both – NLP as well as New Code NLP Trainings – certified by ITA. Therefore, the NLP certification I provide has value all across the world. Further, the certificate carries the prestigious signature of John Grinder himself.
Importantly, to ensure that the quality of an NLP coach is up to international standards, the participants do not qualify to receive the International NLP Certification just by attending the NLP course.
There are evaluations that the participants of my NLP Training Course have to go through before they receive the International NLP certificate.
This format is applied for all my NLP Trainings – NLP Practitioner, NLP Master Practitioner and New Code NLP Practitioner.

I have been fortunate to be a mentor in NLP courses facilitated by Dr. John Grinder, Carmen Bostic and Michael Carroll, including NLP Trainers Training. The participants who attended the NLP trainings were from over 30 countries.
Since I am an ITA – NLP Trainer, my New Code NLP and NLP trainings (which I often facilitate in India -Mumbai, Bangalore and Delhi) follow the criteria set by Dr. John Grinder for NLP trainings. To know the criteria, check the page- NLP Certification in India.
I am glad to share that I am the only ITA Certified NLP Trainer in India to provide both NLP Certifications – NLP training as well as New Code NLP Trainings across India.
Based on my learning I have gained from co-creators of NLP, co-developers of NLP and New Code NLP as well as several NLP Trainings in India, my facilitation follows a certain format, which you can find on NLP Workshop page.

“I have had the great pleasure of working with Abhay for 3 years. We 1st met on an NLP Master Practitioner course in Spain in 2015 and then again in Portugal where we were mentoring an NLP Trainers Training for Dr. John Grinder and the ITA. Abhay was different from the NLP Trainers. His commitment to learning and truly understand the techniques ran deep. He really cared about his students and it was evident he had been playing a major role in assisting many people to breakthrough. As the only ITA Trainer in India delivering New Code NLP, if you have an opportunity to work with Abhay you will definitely get incredible results. I couldn’t recommend it more!
