Your first step is a personal conversation with Dr. Sharma. Complete this form and he will reach out directly via WhatsApp to schedule your interview. There is no obligation. There is no rush. This is the beginning of a considered decision.
Most hypnosis courses end with a certificate. This one begins a practice.
One application. One interview. If a seat is offered, everything below is included — and everything below is either published, logged, or independently checkable.
The credential the field actually recognises.
NGH Certified Consulting Hypnotist — issued by the National Guild of Hypnotists, USA. Boston, 1950. More than 12,000 members in 105 countries. The certificate issued here is the same one issued in Boston. Verify: ngh.net.
Training you can read before you pay.
100 documented hours — didactic teaching, live demonstration, and supervised practice — with countersigned peer work, a documented case portfolio, and the NGH examination. Taught by Dr. Maruti Sharma: RCI-registered Clinical Psychologist (Assoc.), NGH Board Certified Hypnotherapist & Certified Instructor, Society of NLP™ Licensed Trainer in the Bandler line. Two safety checks passed at 100% or repeated. The full syllabus is public. Most schools describe their training; this one publishes it.
Three hours that are yours.
On certification, three private one-to-one sessions with Dr. Sharma — the same hours his private clients book, at the same length, in the same chair. His clinical fees are public at marutisharma.com/train; these come with the certification, nothing extra to pay. Supervision on your first cases, your own inner work, or the shape of your practice. Yours to book within your first year.
A second hundred hours, if you want them.
After certification, up to 100 further hours of supervised practice within the chapter — arranged with a consenting Fellow, at no extra cost, logged like everything else. Other schools count hours inside the course. Here, the deepest hours begin after the paper — in the field, beside someone who already holds it.
A professional home, not an alumni list.
Lifelong NGH India Fellowship. The first-Sunday supervision room, online — one room, Fellows from six countries. The practice map: thirteen cities, Noida to Stockholm. Once a year, 20 November, the chapter gathers in person. Fellowship lasts while you hold the credential, remain in the Guild, and remain in the room.
The practice, built alongside the skill.
The Build Your Premium Practice programme runs inside the certification — positioning, professional conduct, the business of running a clinic — taught by a trainer holding an MA in Organisational Behaviour Psychology who has served Fortune 500 leadership.
Programme Investment
₹75,000 + 18% GST — NGH India CCH programme tuition.
+ US$150 — first-time NGH International Certified Membership, payable separately to the Guild (current rate as published at ngh.net, 2026).
Ongoing NGH membership: graduates who choose to remain active members of the Guild renew annually. NGH currently publishes international renewal dues of US$115 (digital) or US$145 (with printed materials). These dues are set by NGH and may change; current rates are always at ngh.net.
This is the complete 100-hour Certified Consulting Hypnotist pathway: didactic teaching, live demonstration, and supervised practice; case-based application; ethics and professional-scope training; the MTP™ Method as the practice framework within the programme; and the NGH examination. Three private one-to-one sessions with Dr. Sharma and the Lifelong NGH India Fellowship are included. (Fellowship lasts while you hold the credential, remain in the Guild, and remain in the room.)
No hidden certification ladder. You do not enter at one price to discover that the professional credential requires several compulsory higher-priced levels. The tuition is published because serious professional education should be transparent.
Selective by suitability. Not by wealth. Admission remains by application and interview. For applicants with genuine financial constraints, NGH India Fellowship Awards — merit- and need-based — and structured payment options are discussed in the same conversation. The standard is fixed. Access can be flexible.
How admission works — and why it protects you.
There is no checkout button. Admission is by interview, and not every applicant is offered a seat: the supervised ratios are kept small enough to stay supervised. Selection is your protection — a programme that takes everyone can promise no one anything. Accepted applicants start on the next 1st or 15th. No batch. No waiting list.
Before you decide, check everything.
The syllabus is public. The hours are ledgered. The tuition is on this page. The clinical fees are in the open at /train. The Fellows are real — after your interview, you may ask to speak with one who already practises, in your city where possible, with their consent, unscripted. The only thing you cannot verify in advance is the interview itself. It costs you nothing but the conversation.
Next start: the 1st or the 15th, whichever comes first after your offer. Your first first-Sunday follows it.
Dr. Sharma will reach out personally on WhatsApp to schedule your interview. There is no obligation and no rush — this is the beginning of a considered decision.
