How the course works (Certificate)

The course begins with 5 ‘taught’ days in a seminar environment – split 3 days followed by 2 days a month later.  These days will be both theory and practise based and are aimed at giving you a strong body of knowledge whilst preparing you for your assessed work and 20 hours of coaching or mentoring activity.

Once your coaching is underway, a 6^th  ‘tutorial’ day is scheduled online to support this work and the upcoming assignments.  There are three assessed pieces of work:  a theoretical assignment, a portfolio and finally a ‘reflective journal’ of your coaching practice.

When you have finished

You will receive an internationally recognised ILM, QCF credited Certificate. As a member of the prestigious British School of Coaching Alumni you will join a network of professional coaches with access to a wide range of coaching resources and information.

Progression routes

ILM Level 7 Diploma in Executive and Senior Level Coaches and Mentors. This qualification is the highest level coaching qualification available. The Diploma content follows on naturally from the Certificate qualification, adding a further 2 ‘taught’ days and an extra 40 hours of coaching activity. Certificate candidates can decide mid course to progress with the Diploma, or can gain the Certificate and top up the credits with the Diploma work and achieve that qualification.

Participants complete the same three mandatory units as in the Certificate but also complete an extended period of mentoring or executive coaching – a total of 60 hours practice is required for the Diploma.

In this practical unit you will develop and improve your performance as a management coach/leadership mentor; and as a reflective practitioner.

(Please note learners are not required to undertake the Certificate in Executive Coaching and Mentoring as a prerequisite and may join the Diploma in Executive Coaching and Mentoring directly.)
