Discover How to Help People Make the Most of Themselves 

Life coaching is all about helping people to reach their full potential. Lots of us get stuck in ruts and don't push ourselves. We stick with what is tried and tested because we know we can do it, and we won't fail. In doing so, we never really know what we may be capable of. But taking that next step is quite a hurdle, and without some encouragement we may never try.

This course teaches students ways to encourage clients to push themselves - to set goals for success and find ways to attempt things they'd like to achieve. You will learn about the types of problems and individuals life coaching can help, as well as different theoretical approaches to life coaching.  You'll work through sample case studies and apply your understanding to help a range of fictional individuals find achievable solutions and get where they want to be.

Learn life coaching and put it into practice to see how much pleasure you can give to others.

Assessment

Self Assessment Tests are presented throughout the course. These are essentially an automated quiz. When you undertake a "SAT" or "Self Assessment Test", you will be able to see what you got correct, and what was incorrect; and in that way, you can identify your weaknesses.

Assignments are given at the end of each lesson. You should complete this assignment, paying careful attention to follow what is asked of you. It can be just as important to learn to work to specification, as it is to learn about the topic you are studying. Graduates who develop a habit of working to specification in the field of coaching, will impress employers, and will be more efficient when self employed.

A Final Exam is offered upon satisfactory completion of all assignments. This is optional. If you choose to apply for and do this exam, you will have the possibility of obtaining a "formal credit" or "Pass Certification" for this course. A fee applies. The exam may be sat under prearranged conditions anywhere in the world. This college will award you a formal transcript, upon successful completion of the exam, as proof of your results.

Recognition and Ethics


This college is a member of the ACS Affiliates Network; a group of colleges from several countries, affiliated with each other through ACS Distance Education.. Courses are developed with input from all of these colleges, aspiring to reflect internationally accepted standards and needs.

A strict "No Plagiarism" and "No fraud" policy exists. Assignments are checked for plagiarism, and assignments will not be deemed to have been completed, if work is not your own original creation, and is found to have been copied from elsewhere. If the person doing the course is discovered to be different to the name enrolled, the enrolment and any results will be recorded as invalid and any fees paid will be forfeited.

Refund Policy

A full refund less expenses (up to 15% of fees applied) is provided to anyone wishing to withdraw from a course, within 2 weeks of enrolment. This does not apply after the first assignment has been submitted and marked; or after the two weeks has expired.

WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS INSTITUTION?

We believe that we have an ethical responsibility to make good use of the fees you pay and the time you invest into an education through our college. To this end, our first priority is always your learning. This comes before issues such as formal accreditations, speculative marketing and bureaucratic processes which all too often add considerable costs to the running of colleges, and take resources away from the provision of more valuable services to the student.

This college focuses on facilitating your learning and support to optimise that learning. We recognise that learning is all about improving knowledge and skills in your long term memory. While some colleges may focus on getting you to pass exams, by committing knowledge to short term memory; we understand that such an approach is not true education, and does little to improve your long term career or business prospects.

 

How This Course Could Help You

If you like helping other people but you're more interested in positive psychology than mental health, life coaching is a great possibility. Instead of focussing on problems, life coaching looks for solutions.

People come to life coaching from a variety of backgrounds, not just from the caring professions. Whether you're looking to mentor adolescents or coach adults to help them attain their goals life coaching will give you that flexibility.

Study this course in isolation or as part of a larger course. Team it with Business Coaching to enhance your repertoire of coaching skills.
