This is an advanced level programme for coaches, who already have gained experience in coaching.

Who is it suitable for?

Anyone interested in developing their coaching skills further to enhance their career or those who have an established coaching business. 

The course is particularly suited to students who have completed an initial coaching programme, whether recently or some time ago, and are keen to expand their practice.

The aim of the programme is to help coaches deepen their practice in various ways: 

• Enhancing intervention skills. 
• Better understanding clients' needs, using Emotional Intelligence to support your coaching. 
• Defining the importance of psychological contracts and using ethical and professional standards.
• Understanding dynamics in the coaching relationship and aligning learning styles to meet the client needs.

You may be a business, life or health coach who works in corporate or as a business owner, with years of experience, or newly qualified. Whatever your situation, your practice will be deepened and developed as a result of attending.

Over four sessions, you will be supported as you embed these new advanced practices, identify key areas, and be guided along the way to help you put all of your newfound knowledge into practice.

Assessment Methods

There are various ways in which key learnings and understanding of the application of the topic into workplace practice can be assessed before accreditation, as follows:

• A learning log identifying at least three learnings over the four sessions.

• An action plan identifying how you have used the new practices and how you intend to or have applied the knowledge into workplace practice.

• Evidence of 20 hours of live coaching sessions – at least twelve of these in the workplace or client sessions. 

If working for an organisation, your Line Manager must sign off the evidence of your coaching sessions.
