Testimonials

The course provided me with a solid structure for my work as a coach, and I greatly appreciate the inclusion of numerous practice sessions rather than just relying on lectures. Both Tamara and Tanja are very engaging, and I learned a great deal from both of them.

I appreciated the continuity of having Doreen as the lead instructor for the second Module, as it allowed me to build upon her feedback on my assessment in Module 1. It was valuable to have Tamara as the second instructor, as she provided an additional perspective on coaching styles.
