Welcome to The Berne Institute

Ian Stewart died on 17th September 2024 and we have lost not just the co-founder of The Berne Institute, a colleague and a trainer and supervisor of many people who have trained at The Berne, but also a giant in the world of TA. Please click here for a tribute to Ian.


We are devastated by the sudden death of Dr Mark Widdowson, our Associate Director, Academic Registrar and Trainer, on 11th August 2024. This is a great shock to all of us at The Berne Institute and we are grieving his loss. Please click here for a tribute to our friend and colleague.



The Berne Institute is recognised globally as a leading provider in Transactional Analysis (TA) training.

We offer multi-level training to honour the different levels of experience and learning styles of each individual.

The Berne Institute is distinctive in offering all the schools and approaches within TA including current research and theory.

The ethos of The Berne is its unique structure and philosophy that invites diversity and multiple TA perspectives and methodology. After the intensive personal focused training in the Foundation Year, all students are placed in multi-level tutor groups. In each tutor group that meets one day each month, usually on a weekend, the students are held while they develop skills extra theoretical understanding and professional competency. On the second day the students receive specialist training from a variety of TA experts on different TA topics, approaches and application. In this way the student is both accompanied, supported and challenged on their professional journey as well as introduced to a variety of perspectives that encourage each trainee to become the Transactional Analyst they want to be.

Our programmes are validated and quality assured by Middlesex University. 

We are also affiliated to UKCP, UKATA, EATA and ITAA.
