What’s included

Pre-flight checks before your flying lessons

We don’t believe in foundation courses, or in starting to coach after a weekend workshop. Coaching isn’t something you dabble in.

It asks for depth, skill and the ability to create real change, which is why our first accredited step is the Advanced Practitioner Certificate. Before you commit to that, it helps to understand the core ideas of coaching, to be honest with yourself about whether it’s for you, and to start building the self-awareness that shapes every client you’ll work with.

Coaching Readiness won’t qualify you as a coach, and that’s the point. When you do step into accredited training, the concepts are already familiar and you can hit the ground running.

Clarity on coaching as a profession

What coaching really is and what it asks of you, not just the idea of it.

A strong grasp of the key concepts

So accredited training makes sense faster and you get more from it.

Self-awareness

Six weeks, at your own pace

Getting started

Immediate access to a short orientation module, so you start on the right track and avoid the pitfalls many new coaches fall into.

Week 1: Coaching unmasked

What coaching really is, and isn’t. It’s more than asking good questions, and it’s certainly not a casual side hustle.

Week 2: Knowing yourself first

Before you help others, you need to know yourself. Explore your own self-awareness and biases, how your values and beliefs shape the way you coach, and the Pretender Test: which role you default to under pressure.

Will this course qualify me as a coach?

No. Coaching Readiness is designed to help you understand coaching before you commit to accredited training. Think of it as pre-flight checks before flying lessons.

Who is it for?

Brand-new and emerging coaches who want to start on the right track, prepare for accredited training so they get more from it, and understand how coaching, therapy and psychology work together in real transformation.
