Distance Learning

We send out, by courier all the course materials that you’ll need for the course.

This consists of:

• A Student Portfolio – a folder that contains all of the modules and coursework that you’ll need to work through

• A course handbook – This will guide you through the whole course and give you information on how to log your coaching work

• A coursebook called Co-Active Coaching.

Book and Book Critique

The first part of the written work is to read the Co-Active Coaching book and write a book critique. The book critique is just your thoughts down on a couple of sheets of A4 and there are no real right or wrong answers it’s just your understanding of the book. You don’t even have to like the book. We understand that a lot of our students haven’t been in a school environment for some time so we don’t mind punctuation, spelling, etc., etc.

Mentor coach

Once the critique has been received back into the office for marking and once you have started working through about a third of the modules and a 1/3 of the teleclasses we will then allocate you a mentor coach. This is a senior or master-level coach. You will have seven (6+1) sessions with your mentor coach which can be taken at any time. Each session is 60 minutes long. The mentor sessions are done over Zoom or Skype. It is a bit like a role-play exercise where you coach the mentor coach (they act as the client) and at the end of each session, they’ll give you personalized tailored feedback, tips, and suggestions to hone and advance your personal coaching skills and style. The mentor coach is like your driving instructor on the practical side.

Study modules

There are 10+2 learning modules in total and they are dedicated to the following topics:

Part 1 The Fundamental Coaching Skills

1          Conversation

2          The skill of listening

Learn more about the modules in the brochure here: https://bit.ly/train-as-a-coach

Audio Lectures / Webinars

There are 14 audio topics to be listened to. The audio-training and the webinars tie in with the modules you are working through in your course material and could be on beliefs, ethics, questioning skills, listening skills, etc.

You will find a rich library of over 200 hours of recorded audio training and webinars which our students have free access to at all times – available for you to listen to and study. This library is continually being enlarged and updated, by adding new audio lectures to it every month.

Live Monthly Webinars

They are an excellent opportunity to speak with the Senior and Master Coaches who lead them and ask questions. The best part is that you will continue having access to this wealth of training and information not only during training but also after you graduate – as part of the CPD support we provide for FREE to all our students with many of our courses.

During the webinars, there will be other students online and a chance for a question and answer session at the end. If you cannot make the live call, don’t worry because all of the calls are recorded and archived, so there are hundreds of calls that you can access at any time you wish through our online member’s area.

Practical coaching

There are 60 hours of practical coaching to be done. This can be done with friends, relatives, colleagues, etc, if you wish to, it’s entirely up to you, as long as people know that you’re not a qualified coach and it’s all done free of charge. We’ll also put you in touch with study buddies. These are other students who are on the course. You can also find your own by using our e-group which is a special email system for all our students and coaches. With study buddies, you can do reciprocal coaching where you’d coach them for an hour or so and they’d coach you back for an hour, just to build up your hours of coaching. Again, this can be done on Skype.

Written Work

There are 3 reflective essays to be done and 1 final written assignment.

Exam / Final Assessment of Coaching Skills

And when your mentor coach thinks you’re ready for it they’ll put you forward for a final practical skills assessment. This works the same way as a mentor session but instead of giving you feedback at the end, you will be assessed on your performance.

Part 2 – Three-Day Immersive Coaching Experience Weekend

The Immersive Coaching Experience is a special part of the Practitioner Diploma in Life and Executive Coaching.

It is the in-person part of the training. It is also delivered online.
Although you can attend the training as many times as you wish, it is required once during your training, the earlier the better. And it’s Everyone’s Favourite part of the course.

The Immersive weekend pulls together students from all around the world in a fantastic three-day coaching experience, usually held over a Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The format in which the coach training experience is delivered is either Online or Residential, at the discretion of the region hosting it, and taking into account the variety of circumstances of our students.

Your tuition fee for the diploma covers the training program, your student support, mentoring, postgraduate support, textbooks and workbooks, and trainer fees. However we give you the opportunity to attend this immersive training experience as many times as you wish, and you never have to pay for the training again, you may always attend it for free. If your first-time Immersive weekend is residential, the company even pays for the accommodation and meals during the training for, as extra care towards you. We make sure you are fully looked after from the moment you arrive and we do this for a reason: We don’t want people to worry about little things like the extra costs of a sandwich or a cup of coffee. This way, whether you enjoy the Immersive Experience from the comfort of your home or at a special residential venue, you will always be relaxed to focus fully on receiving this vital part of your coach training.

We limit numbers on our residential course to about 25-30 students to about 6-8 trainers and staff. We limit numbers so people get the full benefits of the weekend.

The first day is taken by a Noble Manhattan Accredited Master Coach, some of our trainers are even Felow Coaches. The day is very fast-paced and upbeat. You will be learning various coaching techniques and practices and in the afternoon you will go off in groups or breakout rooms of twos and threes to practice these techniques.

The second day is taken by a Master Practitioner in N.L.P. (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) trainer. The second day is a lot deeper and slower-paced and the trainer goes into teaching about overcoming limiting beliefs, timelines, eye-accessing techniques, etc.

The third day is taken by one of our experienced Accredited Master Coaches, and again it is much faster-paced with a lot of group exercises, demo sessions, and dynamic activities. Your trainer will drill you to become experts in coaching to raise self-esteem, set a vision, identifies core values, and goal setting for goal achievement. You’ll learn a lot more coaching techniques, you will put all that you have learned over the previous days, and start to genuinely develop yourself as a coach.

We know you will really enjoy the immersive coaching experience. And at the end of the weekend, you will find everyone exchanging telephone numbers and looking for ways to keep in contact with people they got on well with, as they can work with them for the rest of the course.

The Immersive Coaching Experience can be taken at anytime during the course. However we do strongly advise that you make sure to have read the required book and written the book critique, completed a 1/3 of the modules and listened to 4 webinar modules. We ask you to do this because if you haven’t read the book and learned some of the techniques then the first half a day would be quite unclear.

We run the immersive weekend every few months, organized by the regional offices in different locations around the world.

NOTE: Currently the Coaching Experience Weekend is delivered ONLINE!
