FAQ

Questions People Ask First

Book a discovery call →

Is body language reading actually scientific — or is this mind reading?

It's observation, not mind reading.

Every skill we teach traces to published research — Ekman's facial action coding, Navarro's field-tested behavioral analysis, Hall's proxemics — and every behavior we train is observable and codable. Reading people is probabilistic: we train accuracy, not certainty.

Can I try a course before paying?

Yes.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes.

A CPD-certified completion certificate is included at every tier, for individuals and teams, and anyone can verify it online from the link on the certificate. VIP adds extended certificate options.

More questions

What's the difference between Self Study, Cohort, and VIP?

Same course content at three levels of support: Self Study is fully self-paced; Cohort adds four live group sessions and the AI tutor; VIP adds three private 1:1 coaching sessions with the founder.

Do I need any background in psychology?

No. Courses start from baseline observation skills and build to cluster analysis. Most learners are sales, hospitality, security, HR, or leadership professionals — not psychologists.

How long until I can use this at work?

Within the first modules: the baseline-and-cluster method is usable straight away. Certification requires demonstrated skill on assessment — typically 3–6 weeks self-paced alongside a full workload.

Can my whole team do this?

Yes — team programmes include cohort delivery, a manager dashboard, and before/after benchmarking. Pricing is per seat with volume discounts.

Are the courses CPD certified?

Yes. Every course is CPD certified, and BodyLytics holds Open CPD Membership (Registration ID 620113). Log the course duration shown on its page as your CPD hours and keep the verifiable certificate as your record. Most professional bodies count one point per hour, but each sets its own acceptance rules, so check yours. The CPD page, linked in our footer, has our Certificate of CPD Membership, the points for each course and a link to the public Open CPD register.

Is deception detection part of the training?

Partly. We teach stress, discomfort, and incongruence detection — with the honest caveat that no method reliably detects lies. Anyone promising that is selling folklore.

Can I upgrade my tier later?

Yes, at any time. What you've already paid is applied to the upgrade, so you only pay the difference. Payment plans are also available on individual courses.

Is team training online only?

No. Choose fully online delivery, or hybrid — everything in Online plus on-site workshops delivered across Europe, at your location or in Barcelona.
