Coaching professional apprenticeship

Provide skills coaching to individuals and teams

There has been a growing demand for the professionalisation of coaching to include one-to-one coaching, team coaching, leadership coaching and for coaching skills to be embedded within culture and infrastructures to support future ways of working. During the coaching professional apprenticeship, you’ll work with a wide range of individuals and teams across organisations, to empower and engage with them to enhance their professional performance. Coaching is a way of leading in a non-directive manner, helping people to learn through deep listening and reflective, open questions rather than instructing, giving advice or making suggestions. You’ll develop enhanced listening and questioning skills that can increase individuals’ and teams’ self-awareness to enable them to evaluate their own and others’ strengths and development areas, and use your emotional and social intelligence in an applied way to support the development of self-awareness, adaptability, resilience, wellbeing, motivation and confidence in the learner.
