The Transformational Coaching Training Program is a 12-month program, meeting both Saturday and Sunday of the first weekend of each month, unless otherwise specified. It will begin October 4-5, 2008 and continue through September 12 -13, 2009.
The course is a stand-alone (non-degree seeking) program. Information on the program that is integrated with our degree programs can be found in the Global Professional Training Program.
This year’s training will bring in internationally acclaimed experts, who coach to specific populations (e.g., creativity coaching, corporate coaching, etc.). Each weekend has a particular focus and to some degree, each weekend builds on the previous session. Yet, any weekend independently will provide an enormous impact on its own.
Certification requires attending either 9 sessions for a basic certification or all 12 weekends for an advanced certificate of completion. Certification also requires receiving coaching for at least 6 months, in group and/or individual sessions.
Those not interested in certification can attend any or all weekends to pick up skills in particular areas of interest. Coaching skills will add speed and power to your therapeutic work, spiritual guidance, teaching, or consulting.
36 continuing education units are available for MFTs, LCSWs, and RNs.
