University Overview

NLP combines theories, models and techniques from a range of scientific and esoteric fields, to create accessible, understandable tools which can be used by individuals, teams and organisations and applied in a variety of contexts to improve outcomes, support wellbeing and create change”


NLP stands for ‘Neuro Linguistic Programming’ and has been around since 1970s when its co-founders, Richard Bandler and John Grinder first modelled the therapists Milton Erickson, Gregory Bateson, Fritz Perls and Virginia Satir.

ANLP defines NLP as follows:

These models, techniques and strategies have evolved from modelling excellence, in order to help us better understand how our thought processes and behaviour, including how the language we use, influences the way we think and the results we get. Modelling excellence in any field enables us to bring about a positive change in ourselves and others.


Course was conducted in a classroom with the Principal of Success Resources International, Mr Graeme Taylor-Edward's.
