THE COURSES
Practitioner Course
Our one-day Practitioner course is for members of the public who have no aspiration in joining the ranks of Tony Buzan Licensed Instructors but wish to acquire and develop the core Mental Literacy Skills for their own personal development.
Practitioners can elect to acquire these skills in one discipline modules of Mind Mapping, Memory Skills and Speed Reading.
Each One-day module is available at £500 per person. An early bird discount of 25% is available if the booking is made and paid for during May.
Advanced Practitioner Course
Our three module, three-day Advanced Practitioner Course is for members of the public and professionals who wish to accelerate their personal development by acquiring the three disciplines of Mental Literacy at one training event.
This would see you achieve Advanced Practitioner status in Mind Mapping, Memory Skills and Speed Reading.
The three-module course is available at £1500 per person. An early bird discount of 25% is available if the booking is made and paid for during May.
Train to become a Tony Buzan Licensed Instructor
Our Tony Buzan Licensed Instructor Course is for aspiring training professionals resulting in a recognised qualification in Mind Mapping, Memory Skills or Speed Reading. This permits all qualified Instructors to teach all three Metal Literacy skills under the Buzan Brand all around the world.
A TBLI is a trainer who majors in one discipline and has a competent working knowledge of the other two as the core techniques work in harmony with one another. Any of the three disciplines can be elected to be the major – for instance Memory Athletes and coaches may elect to have Memory as a major rather than Mind Mapping. The TBLI certificate will then reflect this major.
This qualification is only and exclusively available through Tony Buzan International Ltd.
The three-module course is available at £3000 per person. An early bird discount of 25% is available if the booking is made and paid for during May.
Earn Promotion to become a Senior Tony Buzan Licensed Instructor
A Senior Tony Buzan Licensed Instructor is an existing TBLI who can demonstrate real world training applications of the core skills over a minimum of one year at a significant competence level.
To convert an existing TBLI Licence into a Senior TBLI Licence in their specific Major they should take a three-day refresher course with our Master Trainers with some additional core modules.
Elevation to this rank brings the Instructor into the inner-circle of the Buzan Family with access to additional online training materials, online training with Tony Buzan himself and other promotional support within their countries during Tony Buzan’s visits there.
This qualification is only and exclusively available through Tony Buzan International Ltd and is only granted by attending training with Tony’s Master Trainers.
The three-module accelerated course is available at £2000 per person. An early bird discount of 25% is available if the booking is made and paid for during May.
Masterclasses
There are a limited number of intensive Masterclasses available with the Tony Buzan Master Trainers during the period of this training event.
Each session, for individuals or families of up to four, lasts two hours and can be booked in either Mind Mapping, Memory Skills or Speed Reading with our resident experts.
These sessions can be specifically tailored for each delegate – focusing on issues such as Studying for Exams; Learning as a Family; Forming Speed Reading Study Pods and Memory for Business etc
These sessions are available at £1000 per two-hour session. An early bird discount of 25% is available if the booking is made and paid for during May.
Gala Dinner
