How It Works
Orientation - You'll begin with the Becoming a Coach orientation teleclasses. In this first session, you discover the inside scoop on what established coaches are doing with great success. Plus, you'll have those burning questions answered.

"It's liberating to know I can apply the principles learned without giving up my own creative signature (approach) in the process."

Blanca Stephens

Course Work - Upon registration you will immediately receive your course software. Hundreds of coaches have used the Coach Training Accelerator™ to launch and sustain their careers. It is a completely self-contained coach training program we incorporate here as another facet of our unique learning system.

"Overall this course really has everything I was looking for. It is a good blend of handling the business and marketing aspects of coaching along with developing the right skills and tools. The software is wonderful! Of all the classes and investigation I did this course always came right back on top. "

Group Mentoring - The mentoring group consists of your fellow classmates. They are held weekly via teleconference over dedicated bridgelines (normal long distance charges apply). These instructor led sessions are targeted at specific coaching tools, techniques and models.

"Knowing I have to face the group each week keeps me motivated to stay on top of assignments and make sure I am prepared. I so look forward to each week's class because it is a solid hour of positive thinking and feedback."

Coach the Coach - Throughout the program you will coach, be coached, and observe coaching as it happens. Members of your mentoring group become your "community of practice." This is where you learn by example and through practical experience.

"The 'coach the coach' sessions and the feedback from those are the heart of the program. Coaching live is where the learning is for me. It builds my confidence and believability."

Mary Alyce Owens
Denver CO

Self Study - Each week you will encounter Action Challenges that move you forward, just when you need them. Our alliance with LearnMore.communications has enabled us to build "just-in-time" Learning Models specifically designed for coaches.

"The part of the course I like the best and that is helping me build my practice the most, so far, is the course software. It is very well done and useful. I like the examples, resources, sample brochures, etc."

Gail Mason
Marietta, GA

Observation and Critique - You will hear feedback and recommendations from the Mentor Coach throughout the program. After you complete your certification requirements, at the finish of your training, you will also receive an honest, formal critique.

"I expected support and encouragement, but not at this high level. It has been very rewarding."
