If you work with or wish to be able to support people you may recognise there are many barriers to hinder us from fulfilling our potential. Being able to understand and coach somebody through change or in a skills area, is a very fulfilling role. You may be at the beginning of your journey and would like to know if Coaching is right for you. Perhaps people have told you that you would make a good coach and you have a natural ability to inspire and encourage. This course is a basic introduction to Coaching and on completion, you will gain a certificate from Fircroft College.

Who is this course for?

This course aims to offer people without formal qualifications the opportunity to learn new skills and gain qualifications, helping you to get on in life and in work. The course may be ideal for students who already have some experience in a volunteering/support capacity or students who have either completed learning in other areas at Fircroft and are looking to progress into this type of work.  Students who have completed a number of Personal and Social Development programmes would have gained a good foundation in the emotional wellbeing that underpins these courses. This is particularly if they are considering Coaching as a vocational route for the future.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of the course you should be able to:

• What coaching means
• The key skills that make a coach
• Some areas that coaching can be applied to
• A recognised model for a coaching conversation
• Some key coaching techniques and an opportunity to practise.
