Who is the programme for?

This ILM Coaching Certificate is highly accessible and has been designed for all tiers of director, executive, management & supervisory level, as well as anyone involved in people development.

The benefits

Business coaching is the skill to have in today's rapidly changing business climate. People development through business coaching is fast, efficient and cost effective and will get you measurable results.

This programme provides a detailed pragmatic approach to coaching and mentoring using the very latest techniques. With a tried and tested, business-relevant approach we encourage participants to bring real business issues and case histories to practice.

Delivery style and tutor

The programme is delivered in an up-beat and highly interactive manner with a lot of focus on skills practice, as well as individual and group exercises. This gives participants the opportunity to develop their skills with the support of the course tutor. Our learning & development consultants are qualified and very experienced coaching professionals with a background in executive coaching, 1 to 1 coaching, business coaching and life coaching.

Course Material

Each participant will be issued with a workbook to use both during and after the course, which contains information, guidance and forms to assist with coaching sessions. Participants will also complete a Paradigm psychometric report and receive a year's membership with the Institute of Leadership & Management (ILM).

As with all ILM accredited programmes, participants will need to complete the post-programme activity in order to achieve their full 'ILM Level 5 Certificate in Coaching & Mentoring in Management'.
