CPD Event title: Build Your AI Practice Assistant
Brief Description Of Event:
Self-paced online course (text-based learning)
For Qualified and trainee hypnotherapists
This CPD course supports hypnotherapists in developing ethical awareness, professional judgement, and confidence in relation to the emerging use of artificial intelligence (AI) within professional practice.
As AI tools become increasingly visible across health, wellbeing, and business contexts, many hypnotherapists are unsure how these technologies align with ethical, human-led therapeutic work. This course provides a calm, practice-first framework to help practitioners place AI appropriately within their professional role, without compromising responsibility, boundaries, or clinical judgement.
The course does not focus on technical skills or automation. Instead, it emphasises professional identity, ethical placement, reflective practice, and the responsible use of AI as a support for thinking, planning, and communication around hypnotherapy practice.
Learning Objectives:

- Demonstrate increased ethical awareness regarding the use of AI within hypnotherapy practice
2. Distinguish clearly between human-led therapeutic work and AI-supported professional activities
3. Identify appropriate and inappropriate applications of AI in a hypnotherapy context
4. Articulate their professional voice, values, and boundaries in relation to AI use
5. Develop a personalised AI practice orientation that supports ethical and aligned use
6. Use AI as a reflective and planning support without delegating clinical responsibility
