What
Is Life Coaching?
Coaching
is a personal development phenomenon, which is experiencing
considerable growth throughout the world. Coaching helps
people define their own personal vision, for their future
and supports them to head confidently towards those
goals. Life Coaching is an amalgam of different modalities,
which includes some therapies, psychology, especially
sports psychology, philosophy and spirituality. Life
Coaches set out to help clients clearly define their
goals and find the best solutions for their situation.
As a Life Coach you will work with your clients on a
one-to-one basis assisting them with their life, career
and personal development.
2. Why
Do People Use Life Coaches?
Absolutely
everybody can benefit from Coaching! People use Life
Coaching to help them stay on track in all areas of
life. Life Coaching is very empowering for anyone at
any level who really wants to bring about significant
change. Life Coaching is designed to help you develop
the holistic skills necessary to help clients create
balance in all aspects of their life.
3. Can
anyone be a Life Coach?
Mindstream
offers a professional and comprehensive Life coach
training programme to assist you to become a qualified,
professional Life Coach in an achievable format.
While we encourage everyone who has an interest
in Life Coaching to talk to us about their aspirations,
we believe it takes a special type of person to
be an effective coach. We believe the most important
qualification you need to be a coach is the ability
to communicate and, even more importantly, the
ability to listen and to ask powerful questions.
The Mindstream course will help you to build on
these techniques as well as giving you the tools
designed to help your client find powerful solutions
for their issues and goals. If for whatever reason
we do not believe you would enjoy coaching, we
will take the time to talk to you about other
areas, which may better utilise your talents.

9. Does the Course Have Accreditation?
Coaching is a relatively new business and accreditation
for training courses is still an area of discussion
and agreement. Accordingly a number of coaches, coach
training providers and companies who use coaches have
joined forces in an effort to set in place a comprehensive
set of standards and ethics both for those practising
as coaches and the quality of training companies. Accordingly,
there are two types of accreditation, one for the coach
practitioner and one for coach training providers.
We believe it is vital that standards
for coaches and coach-training providers be maintained
to protect both coaches and their clients. This is why
it is essential to study through an approved training
company, which has obtained accreditation from a reputable
and genuinely independent external body. Mindstream
are at the forefront of promoting these high ethical
standards.
On successful completion of the course,
it is up to the individual graduate to then seek their
own personal accreditation from the accreditation body
of their choice, regardless as to whether the course
was accredited or not.

10. What Can I Expect From The
Classes?
| |
Class
Format
Training to be a coach is exciting, challenging,
fun and fulfilling. During your time as a student
at Mindstream you will work hand in hand with
the facilitators to develop your skills. Each
module will be thoroughly explained and we encourage
all our students to ask challenging questions
and explore the boundaries of coaching. The classes
consist of formal lectures combined with small
discussion groups, practical exercises and role-play.
The emphasis is on learning by doing, and for
each module you attend, you will be asked to practice
in groups of three, where you will have the opportunity
to act firstly as an observer, then as a client
and then finally as a coach. Observation is invited
from the other participants on your coaching technique,
which is a wonderful way to quickly develop your
coaching skills.
Is there much work to
be done outside of the class?
Each week students will be expected to
coach one other student and also to receive coaching
from another – usually done on the phone,
this may take up to two hours. In addition, there
will be some reading and projects to undertake
along with research and written assignments.
How is the Assessment
for the Diploma carried out?
Each student will be assessed on an on-going basis.
The majority of the assessment is based on observations
of your practical work in the classroom. In addition
there will be a written assignment to evaluate
your knowledge of the subject and there will also
be one or more formal observation to test your
practical coaching skills. You may also be asked
to provide a taped coaching session for additional
assesment. Also In order to achieve your Diploma
you will also need to meet our minimum attendance
requirements.
Why Only the Best Coaches
Achieve a Mindstream Diploma
As an independently accredited training facility,
Mindstream formally assesses all students before
they receive their coaching qualification. In
order to maintain standards and to ensure that
your Diploma qualification continues to be highly
respected, there may be times when we feel that
we cannot award the Diploma to a particular student.
If you do not pass the Diploma, you will be be
invited back for further training at no extra
cost until such time as we believe you have achieved
the standard necessary to receive your Diploma.
