"As an exercise professional the addition of the nutrition, health and wellness subjects in the program has enabled me to expand the clients I coach and to support them to to grow their wellbeing agency. I have to say the group training in the Certified Coaching Professional Program was second to none. I felt so blessed to learn in real time with a group of Coaches, who just like me, wanted to be able to support their clients in the best way possible. Being trained by highly experienced Coaches, having the opportunity to observe others coaching, and having my coaching critiqued completely transformed the way I coach. I absolutely recommend this training to all Coaches."
Nikki  has since gone and and is now an ACC ICF coach and is an instructor in a number of our programs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What's the difference between CCP and THE DIPLOMA? >
CCP is the coach training required by all the accrediting bodies. It enables you to credential with ICF who are the international gold standard in coaching. It is possible to undertake just CCP on its own.

The Diploma means you are an accredited coach with additional specialised (degree level) nutrition, health and wellbeing training, and in turns makes you eligible to join a health coaching associations such as UKIHCA, EMCC, and HCANZA.
CAN I JUST DO THE CERTIFIED COACHING PROFESSIONAL PROGRAM? >
Absolutely! If you already have a  health background and are just looking to add a coaching qualification you may like to just complete the Certified Coaching Professional Program.

Even after you complete the Certified Coaching Program you can add nutrition, health and wellbeing diploma subjects at a latter time.
Do I have to enrol into the diploma? >
No, this is also optional. We appreciate many of our coaches hold existing qualifications in health and social sciences and may not require a diploma. If you are a coach looking to add 'health and wellbeing coaching' we recommend you refer to our gap training which enables you to complete the four health and wellbeing subjects without the diploma registration.

If at a later stage you decide you would like to add the diploma you simply add the Learner Registration Fee. Once you hold the diploma your qualification is shown as a Level 5 Diploma in Coaching for Lifestyle and Wellbeing Management, it is highly sought after in the corporate, speaking and professional coaching space.
CREDITS AND EXEMPTIONS FOR PRIOR LEARNING >
If you hold a degree or relevant study in human nutrition you are likely to gain a credit exemption for the Human Nutrition subject (including a fees exemption). Contact the office.
WHEN SHOULD I START? >
An ideal time for coaches to enrol into the diploma (but not essential) is a number of months prior to the start of coaching classes. You’ll then have the opportunity to complete some of your health self-paced subjects, and then come back to any remaining ones when ready. This also secures your spot in Coaching Program.
