Level 3 builds on the knowledge gained in Level 1 and 2, providing advanced practical coach training skills and further exploring of the theoretical elements of coaching, focusing on increasing competency and confidence to practice as a professional Health and Wellness Coach.The major difference between a Health and Wellness Coach and other health professionals is the facilitative, as opposed to prescriptive approach and the handing over of responsibility to the client. There are many aspects that are derived from other helping professions such as the unconditional positive regard that the coach will always display and the honouring of the client’s autonomy and unique values.
The next step in the journey is an intensive and comprehensive study of each element introduced in earlier levels of learning. Level 3 brings coaching to life and builds on all your learning so far. You will gain a deeper understanding of the many theories underpinning our work and given many opportunities to coach (and be coached).
Graduates from Level 3 will have demonstrated the ability to coach a client using the model taught and have a more confident understanding of how to handle what is brought to the session. They will be ready to begin a lifelong pattern of learning, understanding that each and every coach continues to grow and develop as their career progresses.
