about the aamet
AAMET stands for the Association for the Advancement of Meridian Energy Techniques. The AAMET is a professional association largely comprised of EFT practitioners, trainers and students. It is primarily based in the United Kingdom (UK) and has been working towards creating and maintaining quality in EFT for over a decade.
The certified trainers of the AAMET offer EFT training that is well-established. Since 2002, the leadership and member trainers (including EFT Masters) of AAMET have been developing and teaching a core EFT curriculum based on the work that EFT founder Gary Craig originally created.
Each AAMET trainer can teach the agreed-upon AAMET curriculum their own way, but the core EFT skills remain the same. Participants in an EFT training course can expect to cover the common ground of core EFT skills appropriate to each level, while receiving encouragement towards developing their own unique Art of Delivery.

how to receive aamet certification
After completing Levels 1 & 2, there are further requirements for completing the certification process. To continue to full certification, you will then practice EFT with a number of clients (often friends or family) and write three case histories to be reviewed by your trainer. Further requirements are a multiple choice exam (no charge) and further mentoring with your trainer as needed. In the AAMET system, each trainer issues the Certification to his or her own students. Once certified by your trainer, you then may join the AAMET as an AAMET-Certified EFT Practitioner for a modest annual fee and enjoy benefits such as a Practitioner Listing on the AAMET site, ability to list Workshops and Events, etc.. See www.AAMET.org for details.
why choose the aamet training and certification?
Please refer to the excellent FAQ Section of www.EFTUnited.com. AAMET is the organization with the longest and best track record in the world regarding EFT certification. Their leadership and integrity are impeccable. My colleagues, including Betty Moore-Hafter were part of the leadership of the Santa Rosa Harmonization Gathering during which many EFT leaders and trainers decided to support the AAMET Trainings and Certification, and this page explains why my colleagues and I decided to go in this direction.
