Course Content

The bundle enables you to build strong foundations in professional coaching before deepening your skills through advanced practice.

Across both modules, you apply what you learn in live coaching sessions, engage in reflective practice, and receive feedback to strengthen your coaching presence and confidence. The structured, practice-led approach supports the gradual integration of new skills into your coaching work. It prepares you to work more effectively with complex client situations and progress toward PCC-level credentialing.

Module 1 - Certification

The course starts by covering the foundation of coaching:

  • Definition of coaching
  • Coaching dos and don’ts
  • Difference with mentoring, therapy and consulting
  • Coaching philosophy and values
  • ICF and EMCC accreditations and credentialing paths
  • Structure of a coaching session and a coaching engagement
  • Coaching demo and practice

You will develop core competencies to become a great coach. Our competency model is based on the ICF and the EMCC competency frameworks. It includes:

  • Contracting
  • Active listening
  • Powerful questioning
  • Effective communication
  • Facilitating client growth
  • Ethical practice
  • Coaching presence
  • Trust & safety
  • Professional development

You will learn how to use evidence-based theorie, tools, and models in your coaching to understand your clients better and help them reach their full potential:

  • Positive psychology
  • Personality psychology
  • Emotional intelligence
  • Cognitive biases
  • ABC model
  • Metaphors
  • Change model

Students practice coaching with each other every time they meet.

You will be split in pairs or in triads to get confident in the coaching process and apply coaching skills in a safe learning environment. You will not do any role-play, but coach each other on real topics.

The trainer joins a group every day to observe the sessions and provide detailed, personalised, and empowering feedback to participants. The group then comes back together and a bigger debrief is made to allow everyone to share their learning and inspire each other.

The certification includes 10 hours of Mentor Coaching, which is one of the requirements when you apply for an ICF credential. 

  • On the last two half-days of the training, you will complete the group mentor coaching (7 hours). Students will coach each other in front of the whole group, while the others will observe and learn from the coach. A discussion is then facilitated by the trainer who also gives feedback.
  • In the three months following the end of the course, you will complete the 3 hours of individual mentor coaching with your mentor. These 3 sessions of an hour each will enable you to ask questions, review the audio recording of sessions, and discuss your coursework.
Module 2 - Advanced Coach Training

The focus is on developing the depth, presence, and professional judgement required for advanced coaching practice. You explore what distinguishes competent coaching from consistently effective, PCC-level coaching, with an emphasis on integration rather than technique accumulation.

  • ICF PCC Markers: Deepen your understanding of PCC-level markers and how they are demonstrated in coaching sessions.
  • Coaching the person, not the problem: Learn to work beyond surface-level goals by engaging the whole person, supporting awareness, insight, and sustainable change.
  • Architecture of powerful questions: Refine your use of language to craft questions that invite depth, challenge assumptions, and open new perspectives without directing the client.
  • Reflective cycle: Use structured reflection to examine your coaching patterns, strengthen your self-awareness and engage in continuous professional development.

This section strengthens your ability to draw on established psychological approaches to inform your coaching practice, while maintaining clear professional boundaries. The emphasis is on when and how to apply these perspectives ethically and effectively in coaching conversations.

  • Carl Rogers’ person-centred approach: Deepen your capacity to create a coaching relationship grounded in empathy, congruence, and unconditional positive regard, supporting trust and client autonomy.
  • Cognitive behavioural coaching: Learn to work with thinking patterns, beliefs, and behaviours to support clients in creating practical, sustainable change aligned with their goals.
  • Mindfulness coaching: Integrate mindfulness-based approaches to enhance client awareness, emotional regulation, and presence, both within and beyond coaching sessions.
  • Somatic coaching: Explore how embodied awareness can support insight and change by working with physical sensations, posture, and energy as part of the coaching process.

This section develops your understanding of coaching supervision and how it supports professional growth, ethical practice, and reflective mastery. You will explore different supervision formats and learn to use supervision as a tool for continuous improvement in your own coaching practice.

  • Difference between coaching supervision and mentor coaching: Understand the distinct purposes, focus, and outcomes of supervision versus mentor coaching, and how each supports your professional development.
  • Role and purpose of coaching supervision: Learn how supervision promotes accountability, ethical practice, and deeper self-awareness in complex coaching situations.

How you will learn

The to courses of the bundle are structured the same way. They both combine structured learning, reflective practice, self-study, and mentor coaching to help you develop your coaching competence. You will progress through a sequence of prework, interactive classes, self-directed study, supervision, and final evaluation to ensure you graduate ready to demonstrate ACC-level coaching skills after module 1, and PCC-level coaching skills by the end of the module 2.

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on what you are hoping to achieve.

If you want to learn coaching skills and apply for your ICF ACC credential, you may register for the certification. You will still be able to complete the advanced coach training at a later stage.

If you already know you want to commit to becoming a coach and apply for your ICF PCC credential one day, we recommend you enrol for the Diploma directly and complete both modules. Instead of paying two courses at the full price, you will save more than €1,000 on the advanced course.

Both modules of the diploma are delivered in English.

The Advanced Diploma in Coaching is for anyone who wants to develop a solid foundation in coaching with an extensive knowledge in psychological theories and models.

You do not need to have previously coached in order to join the programme.

The Advanced Diploma in Coaching comprises two modules:

  1. Professional Coaching Skills Certification
  2. Advanced Coach Training

Both modules are 75-hour programmes and include live classes, videos and reflections, self-study, and group and individual mentor coaching.

It can take 8 to 12 months to complete the diploma, depending on your training dates and your commitment to complete the asynchronous part of the training.

You can read more about our approach here.

Because our approach is centered on the whole person, rather than the problem clients come to coaching for, graduates of the diploma can specialise in many different areas of coaching: life, career, leadership & executive, relationships, confidence, success, well-being, business, etc.

It is suitable if you are starting your professional coaching journey or if you have some experience and want to develop your skills in a coherent, progressive way that supports long-term credentialing.

By completing Level 1 and Level 2 together, you build strong foundations first, then deepen your practice.

Choose this course if…

You want to develop as a professional coach over time, rather than through different courses. This bundle is ideal if you want to coach the person, not the problem, work confidently with a wide range of clients, and gradually build the depth, presence, and critical thinking required for advanced coaching practice.
