Peer Coach

Peer Coaching registration has closed.  The next round starts on June 12th.

Our Peer Coaching programme is a free service to our members. 

But if you would like to try out Peer Coaching without being a member of Coaches Plus, you can sign up for one round for $20 (about £13).

 The programme enables you to:

• practice your coaching
• receive coaching - from a range of differently trained and experienced coaches
• receive feedback from other coaches 
• build and develop your skills based on feedback
• build your coaching hours for credentialling and accreditation  - as these are bartered services, you can count the hours as paid hours for the purposes of ICF credentialling
• build collaborative relationships with other coaches

How does it work?

We match you with two other coaches, one will be your client, the other will coach you.  You are coached for a minimum of 6 hours and coach for a minimum of 6 hours by telephone or VOIP (e.g. Skype) .  At the end of the programme you provide feedback to your coach and receive feedback from your client.

This will allow you to experience coaching from a range of differently trained and experienced coaches and build up your coaching hours for professional accreditation and credentialling. 

You can take part as many times as you like in a year and we aim to start a peer coaching programme every three months.

What do you need to take part?

• You need to work to a professional coaching Code of Ethics, Conduct or Practice - if you don't belong to a professional coaching body, we ask you to work to the ICF (International Coach Federation) Code of Ethics
• You need to be a undertaking coach training with a training body accredited by one of the coaching professional bodies or a university or college in the state sector or be trained and qualified with such a training body.  Training programmes should have at least 60 hours direct contact/class time.
• You need to be a member of Coaches Plus
