Do I need to have done the Introductory Workshop in Crystal Healing to do the Diploma Course?
No.   The Introduction Course is run so that students can get some of the very basics to work with crystals safely, on their own. The Intro also gives people who are unsure a chance to see if they do want to study crystal and energy healing at the Academy. Everything on the Introduction day is then covered in greater depth early on in the Diploma Course.   The Introductory Course carries no professional qualification on its own.

If a student decides the Diploma Course is not the right one for them during their training do they have to pay for the whole course or just a part?
If a student decides the course is not for them at any point during the two years, they only pay for the course up until the point when they leave.   For example, if a student has paid in advance for the first year, but decided to leave after week-end three, then they would be reimbursed for the four weekends they didn't do, on a pro-rata basis.   

Why is it that there are other courses that offer a Diploma qualification in Crystals in only a few weekends, yet the Academy course is two years part-time?
A two-year course in Crystal Healing is actually the minimum standard rather than the maximum.   Working with crystals can be life changing, and they are very powerful tools not to be underestimated.   All healing schools that belong to the Federation of Subtle Energy Medicine require a minimum two year training period in crystal healing.   Over twenty years ago, when the first professional courses in Crystal Healing were created, they consisted of only six weekends.   However, it was realised fairly quickly that this was insufficient for those who wished to work professionally as Crystal Healers.   Standards were therefore implemented by the authorities in the field at that time  of a minimum 180 hour tutor led Diploma training, to be facilitated over two years.    

Why does it take a minimum of 2 years (28 days tuition) to qualify?
Practitioners working with crystals have to be able to perceive and also assess the subtle energy systems of clients accurately.   This is something that requires much development of one's intuitive abilities as well as an in-depth understanding of the subtle energy system as these systems are not visible to the naked eye.   Crystals have to be correctly chosen, along with the appropriate healing techniques for the client.   As our energy field is constantly changing, and no two people are the same, there can also be no 'set format' of crystal layouts for each therapy session.   Making the correct choice of crystals and techniques during a healing session, requires skill, knowledge and experience.   As crystals carry highly potent energies it is of vital importance to get this right.


Furthermore, the course also involves learning how to channel healing energy.   Whilst this in itself is not very difficult, being able to do this effectively however, requires a great deal of personal self-development, and an ability to recognise and work on transforming one's own issues.  This is an ongoing and lengthy process.   Becoming energetically self-aware takes time, as does being able to recognise subtle energies in the environment.   It also takes self-awarness and inner knowledge to avoid projecting or taking on the patterns of clients who come for healing.

Why do you not run correspondence courses?
It is our view that, whilst correspondence courses work very well for purely academic or theory based courses, they are not suitable for a course that involves a healer training.   The majority of the work involved in becoming a healer is practical and experiential.   This should be done under direct tutor supervision in order to avoid serious error.

I have already trained in and/or have qualifications in Energy work/Reiki/Shamanic healing.   Can this be taken into account?
In our experience, those individuals who are already qualified in other energy therapies have found this served as an excellent foundation for doing the Crystal and Energy Healing Diploma.   Nobody has ever found anything repetitive and they found the course content very interesting and innovative.   A few had so much experience they did not have to do the Energy Healing Case Studies.   All of these practitioners had attended a lengthy (at last two years) training elsewhere.

Is your course religious or open to anyone?
The AIR Course is not a religion based course and is open to anyone of any faith or belief system.   AIR does not teach in the name of any specific religion, religious or biblical figures, or icons.
