Certificate in Executive Coaching
A Coaching Accreditation Programme for Experienced Managers and Leaders.
“This programme has opened my mind to the world of coaching.” Tobias
The purpose of this ELCAS-approved programme is to consolidate the skills you have been using for many years as a leader and formalise them in the form of accreditation with an internationally recognised professional body, EMCC Global.
Throughout your military career, you have spent hundreds of hours supporting juniors to gain in confidence and ability. You have learnt to listen well, ask incisive questions, give honest feedback, and help people set goals for themselves.
You are a coach – this programme converts these skills into a formal qualification.
How will this help me?
“The skills the course provides are focused on professional coaching but have applications to all walks of life and I’m likely to remember elements of this course every day for years to come.” Tony
On successful completion of the programme, you will gain a Certificate in Executive Coaching. And, in addition to this, you will attain accredited status with the leading professional body, EMCC Global.
Most organisations are committed to developing a coaching culture. Being an accredited coach shows that your leadership style is aligned to their ethos and makes you a more attractive candidate.
Whilst you have gained a wealth of coaching experience in your career to date, this was most likely collected on the job and in an unstructured way. This course consolidates and enhances what you have learnt from experience.
You may be considering setting yourself up as an independent coach or consultant.Whatever your trade, coaching skills will help you deliver it to your clients. Your accredited status is a mark of quality that increases your credibility.
Coaching is the art of unlocking another person’s potential. You will improve your ability to facilitate the performance and development of other people.
What is the teaching method?
“It provides a great all round learning experience: formal teaching, personal reflection, practice in a safe environment, direct encounter with real clients, and the ability to revisit any aspect of the course via the learning platform – this combined approach, spread out over 3 months made it the success it was.” Paul
The entire course is delivered online.
Every module is highly interactive, combining taught input in the Zoom ‘plenary’ with practise and discussion in break-out rooms. We create the time and space for all course participants to get to know each other, contribute and improve their skills.
You will attend an initial briefing session, followed by 10 x 2.5-hour live, interactive, and experiential learning modules, plus a final conversation with course faculty to discuss your overall learning outcomes.
The total qualification time for this programme is approximately 75 hours. The 10 x 2.5 hour Zoom meetings are the only fixed timings. The remainder can fit around your existing work schedule.
Who is this programme for?
Participants must have a minimum of 5 years leadership experience and must have accrued a minimum of 100 hours formal or informal coaching experience.
The 100 hours practice experience refers to any form of supportive, developmental conversation held on a 1:1 basis and does not have to be logged.
This course is suitable for anyone who knows that they will need to coach people in the future.
It is particularly relevant for someone who anticipates moving into a role where they will need to focus more on empowering others rather than providing detailed instruction; it is about enabling others to solve problems and find solutions.
What will I learn?
“I am confident I now have the skills, knowledge and ability to contribute to a coaching culture, and get the best from my team.” Colin
