Purpose

The purpose of Occupational Certificate: Metaphysics Practitioner is to prepare a learner to operate as a Metaphysics Practitioner. This part-qualification will encourage and build a community of Metaphysics teachers and practitioners who offer professional; quality care; through well-structured, applied quality education aligned with international best practice. A qualified learner will be able to: • Establish and maintain Metaphysics healing services in a public or private context. • Conduct client consultation and record-keeping in a public or private energy healing service context. • Facilitate a process of client wellbeing through applying energy healing modalities.

Rationale

This part-qualification will encourage and build a community of practitioners and teachers who offer cost-efficient quality wellness care; through well-structured, applied quality education aligned with international best practice. This approach to up-skilling and re-skilling South African Metaphysics Practitioner/Healers and new learners. This will elevate the industry as a whole and encourage skills transferability in the public and private sectors. The outcome of this is recognition, legitimacy, and collaboration of this industry. This will uplift service delivery from natural energy healers and academies, which encourage overall empowerment, upliftment and financial success. In the social context, this ratification, of a previously fragmented industry brings wellness options to communities and individuals, encouraging them to take accountability for their wellbeing with the support of trained, skilled and dedicated practitioners at all levels. The minimum number of credits is attributed to the content, complexity and nature of training, which still exceeds the average international duration for the same training course.
