Program Details
How your program is organized and delivered

Class Delivery - Super-Convienient, Super-Effective Teleclasses
All of our classes are delivered by super-convenient dialogue-rich teleclasses. You dial into the telephone bridge at class time and you are fully engaged in learning from anywhere you can go with a phone.
We feel this is a great way to learn how to coach for two reasons:
1) Short bursts of learning: It allows us to teach you in short intense bursts over a period of time – much like the way MOST coaching is delivered to clients. This way you learn something and then practice during the week. Then you learn the next step and again practice during the week. This is the optimal way to learn when you want maximum retention.

2) Learn to coach the way you will coach: Week by week and mostly (or all) by phone. MOST life and business coaching is done on a weekly basis. (sometimes twice monthly). So you will learn how to Coach in the same way on a weekly schedule. Also, most coaching is conducted by phone so you will practice with us in the same way you will probably work with your clients / players. This is a smart way to learn.

On-line Learning Center
Our graduate level program is supported by our amazing learning platform that will enable you to work through the curriculum with style.  Also used by MIT Sloan School of Business, our platform is quite unique in the coaching industry.  Each class has an on-line learning center with the following items:

1) Written learning guides: each class has a detailed document with theories, methods and key concepts. We like to call them “Play Books”. Some of them are quite colorful!

2) Complete Class Recordings: there is a complete class recording of an earlier version of the class available if you have to miss a class.

3) On-line quizzes: each class has an on-line multiple-choice quiz that you must complete; passing score is 80%.

4) Attendance tracking: each class has an on-line syllibus where you will track your completion of every class session. Here you will confirm your attendance in each teleclass by entering the class attendance secret code given by the instructor at the beginning and ending of the teleclass. If you complete a session via self-study you will track this here as well.

5) Colleague Connections: The complete class roster is available for you to easily connect with your colleagues in class. As a student in our school you will create a member profile. The roster contains links to the member profiles of each student in the class.

6) Convenient On-line Class Registration: The registration center makes it easy to set up your complete schedule and register for the classes at the times you want.
* Only available to students who register for the complete Center for Coaching Mastery program.

 7) Self-paced Home Study Before, During and After: With our on-line platform you will have access to all the materials for each class from the moment you register AND for as long as you want after the class. If you want to get started early by reading or listening, go for it. If you want to come back years later and re-do a class, it will be there for you. There are no time limits. In fact, we refresh the recordings every 2 years, so you will have access to the latest version when you come back! Mastery is a lifelong pursuit and we are here for you.

1) 5 Minutes: Welcome participant and give the class attendance codes
2) 5 Minutes: Open dialogue where participants share coaching experiences and challenges from the past week
3) 25 Minutes: Teaching dialogue about a specific coaching method and the theory behind it.
4) 25 Minutes: Live coaching session – Your instructor will have a REAL client on the phone bridge and conduct a real coaching session for everyone to observe
5) 15 Minutes: Debrief and critique the coaching session and more deeply explore the theory and method
6) 50 Minutes: Tele-Dyad. You and a colleague split off and conduct a 25-minute coaching session where you practice what you have learned as the coach and the player. You will have the same colleague partner for each of the six sessions of a class so that you experience and practice the ongoing flow and deepening of a coaching relationship.
7) 20 Minutes: Debrief the experience of practice and deepen learning about the topic
8) 5 Minutes: Class wrap-up, field work and final attendance code.
