Executive and Life Coaching Courses
Our speciality is developing and running practitioner coaching courses. If you want to learn how to use coaching skills to develop yourself or others then these courses are for you. That may be in the areas of life coaching, executive coaching, career coaching or some other form of coaching.
The aim of these courses is for our students to gain first-rate practitioner-level coaching skills and also confidence in their abilities. Since 2003, these extremely successful courses have enabled hundreds of students to generate positive changes in their lives and provided them with the skills and confidence needed to coach others to do the same.
The full title of the course is the Accredited Diploma in Executive & Life Coaching and this is a part-time course for those wishing to become a coach or to learn coaching skills in order to improve their personal and professional effectiveness.
We offer two practitioner courses, the Practitioner Diploma in Coaching with Neuroscience and the Advanced Diploma in Coaching with Neuroscience
Both courses require no prior knowledge of coaching and will take you to a level where you can practise effectively as quality coaches. The Diploma will take you to a practitioner level and the Advanced Diploma to an advanced practitioner level. Either part-time course would be suitable for those wishing to become a coach or to learn coaching skills in order to improve their personal and professional effectiveness.
There is an upgrade path available from the Practitioner Diploma to the Advanced Diploma if you wish to upgrade at a later stage.
Both courses are accredited by the WACN. (World Association of Coaching with Neuroscience) This is the a leading edge organisation devoted to promoting and developing coaching beyond it’s traditional style. You can choose to join other professional organisations such as the International Coaching Federation (ICF) or the AC (Association for Coaching).
Note the ICF and AC also have additional criteria for membership including a number of paid client coaching hours. This would need to be built up after qualifying.
