Transferring to EFT International

Please Note: If you are a certified EFT professional looking to transfer your accreditation to EFT International, you are welcome to apply as an External Candidate. Since our application procedures are under review (June 2023), the first step is to contact our Accreditation Coordinator, Betty Moore-Hafter with your interest at accreditation@eftinternational.org.

• Join at the Student Level: All EFT International members start by joining at the student level. The annual student membership fee of £25 will begin your External Application process. This student fee pays for initial processing and allows you to access to the External Application Form. During the application process you will have all the benefits of an EFT International student member. Please note that this is an annual fee and is non-refundable and not prorated in cases where you remain at the student level for part of a year.
• Application Fee: After you have submitted the External Application Form, and IF you are approved as an External Candidate, the following application fees will apply: £355 for EFT Practitioner or Advanced EFT Practitioner level OR £360 for Trainer level.
• Exam Fee: During the application process, the Accreditation Coordinator will approve you to take the exam for your relevant level: £15 for EFT Practitioner level, £20 for Advanced EFT Practitioner level, and £160 for Trainer level.
• Extras: IF you are required to submit case studies as part of your application, case study marking fee will be £100. IF you are required to undertake mentoring, the fees for mentoring sessions are variable depending upon time needed.
• Annual Membership Fee: On successful completion of your External Application, an annual membership fee for the appropriate level is required: Practitioner levels are £45 and Trainer level is £115. This fee is due each year to keep your membership current.

If you have any questions before proceeding as an External Application, please contact accreditation@eftinternational.org.
