PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION 
The purpose of this part-qualification is to prepare a learner to operate as an Heart Resonance Energy Practitioner. The part-qualification will encourage and build a community of Heart Resonance Energy (HRE) practitioners and teachers who offer professional; quality wellness care; through well-structured, applied quality education aligned with international best practice.

A qualified learner will be able to:
  • Establish and maintain Heart Resonance 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:
    The Occupational Certificate in Heart Resonance Practitioner 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 will up-skill and re-skill South African healers and new entrants. This will elevate the industry, which will encourage multi-skilling and 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 will 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 own 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.
