How It Works
Orientation
You 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 have those burning questions answered.
Course Delivery
The Certified Coach Program is a combination of live teleconferencing, online media, and interactive software downloaded directly to your computer. You experience: Group Mentoring | Coach the Coach | Self Study | Observation & Critique
“It’s liberating to know I can apply the principles learned without giving up my own creative signature (approach) in the process.”
Course Work
Upon registration you 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. Of all the classes and investigation I did this course always came right back on top. “
Group Mentoring
The mentoring group consists of you, your Mentor Coach and your fellow classmates. Classes are held weekly via teleconference over dedicated, private bridgelines. These instructor led sessions target 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.”
Virtual Classroom
Enjoy unlimited access to this online private forum designed exclusively for your class. You’re able to share your progress, questions, challenges and resources with your classmates as well as stay connected outside of class.
“This is a fantastic program. You guys have all the bases covered. I loved that this program covered everything from learning how to coach to staring your own business and everything in between. No other course that I researched offered all of this.”
Self Study
Each week you encounter Action Challenges that move you forward, just when you need them. Our dedication to providing the best of coach training has enabled us to develop “just-in-time” learning models specifically designed for new 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.”
Observation and Critique
You hear feedback and recommendations from the Mentor Coach throughout the program. After you complete your certification requirements, at the finish of your training, you receive an honest, formal critique.
“I expected support and encouragement, but not at this high level. It has been very rewarding.”
What to expect
Class Size
Limited to a maximum of 12 participants. Research has found, and our experience confirms, that 10-15 students is ideal. Less than ten lowers the synergy and the group learning dynamic. More than fifteen crowds the opportunities for participation and meaningful involvement.
“It’s liberating to know I can apply the principles learned without giving up my own creative signature (approach) in the process.”
Course Length
Condensed to 6 months (22 weeks with time off, holidays, etc.) There’s no guessing when you will finish this program. There’s no waiting for classes to open up. No delays in meeting graduation requirements.
Typical Week
Telesessions, 60-90 minutes per week.
Self-study, 1 to 2 hours per week
