I, Cy E. Hammond, certify that:

1.   I have reviewed this annual report on Form 10-K of NCT Group, Inc.;

2.   Based on my  knowledge,  this  annual  report  does not  contain any untrue
     statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact  necessary to
     make the statements  made, in light of the  circumstances  under which such
     statements  were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by
     this annual report;

3.   Based on my  knowledge,  the  financial  statements,  and  other  financial
     information included in this annual report,  fairly present in all material
     respects the financial  condition,  results of operations and cash flows of
     the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this annual report;

4.   The  registrant's  other  certifying  officer  and  I are  responsible  for
     establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
     in Exchange Act Rules  13a-15(e) and  15d-15(e))  for the registrant and we
     have:

a)   designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure
     controls and  procedures to be designed  under our  supervision,  to ensure
     that  material  information  relating  to  the  registrant,  including  its
     consolidated  subsidiaries,  is made  known to us by  others  within  those
     entities,  particularly  during the period in which this  annual  report is
     being prepared;

b)   evaluated the  effectiveness  of the registrant's  disclosure  controls and
     procedures  and presented in this annual report our  conclusions  about the
     effectiveness  of the  disclosure  controls  and  procedures  based  on our
     evaluation as of the Evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this
     annual report based on such evaluation; and

c)   disclosed in this annual report any change in the registrant's  most recent
     fiscal  quarter (the  registrant's  fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an
     annual  report) that has  materially  affected or is  reasonably  likely to
     materially  affect,  the  registrant's   internal  control  over  financial
     reporting; and

5.   The registrant's  other certifying  officer and I have disclosed,  based on
     our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to
     the registrant's  auditors and the audit committee of registrant's board of
     directors (or persons performing the equivalent function):

a)   all  significant  deficiencies  and  material  weaknesses  in the design or
     operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonable
     likely to adversely  affect the  registrant's  ability to record,  process,
     summarize and report financial information; and

b)   any fraud,  whether or not  material,  that  involves  management  or other
     employees who have a significant role in the registrant's  internal control
     over financial reporting.
