ILM Level 3 Award in Workplace Coaching

This course gives you the skills you need to understand good practice in workplace coaching and to organise and undertake supervised coaching in the workplace.

Overview:

Coaching is defined as the process of enabling individuals to acquire the knowledge, skills and techniques needed to perform effectively in their occupational role by motivating, inspiring, challenging, stimulating and guiding them.

As a learner-centred development method, coaching often represents an ideal option for helping individuals achieve objectives aligned to team and organisational needs.

Delivery is by tutors who have experience of coaching in a range of different industry workplaces. It means we are able to combine the rigours of theory with real life practice.

All sessions will be highly participative and encourage delegates to practice new knowledge and skills before they undertake coaching in their own workplace.

Suitable for:

Those who need to develop others to perform effectively within their work role.
