Career Coaching course
Want to be a Career Coach?
If you like the idea of working on your own terms while helping others why not become a career coach?
As a career coach you can work from home and choose your hours.
Consider these facts:
• More than 75 percent of people do not enjoy their work
• Most people change careers over 10 times in their working life
There has never been a better time to become a career coach. Career coaching is one of the fastest growing professions today. Career coaches are needed at all levels of the job market, by organisations and individuals. Your clients could include:
• Career changers
• Women returners
• School and college leavers
• Corporate clients
• Government and not-for-profit agencies
• Entrepreneurs
• Job-seekers after redundancy
Our Career Coaching Self Study Course will show you how to get clients and how to connect with them. You’ll become an expert on CV writing, job applications and interview techniques. You will also learn how to set up on your own, develop your coaching skills, find clients and grow your business.
At the end of most of the modules, you’ll find a Self-Study assignment, and an online test to complete. At the end of your final module will be a final exam, and this will result in your course certificate.
What is career coaching?
Career coaching is a relatively new profession. Building on the foundation of the career development industry, which included vocational counsellors and career counsellors, career coaching takes a focussed and practical approach to job-hunting and career development. In short, career coaching works. Following the tried-and-tested coaching model, career coaching helps people make satisfying job choices and enjoy better careers.
As a career coach you can work the way you want to. Coaching sessions can be carried out face-to-face, by telephone or email, on an individual basis or in groups. You can work from home or from an office – the choice is up to you. Many career coaches are self-employed, but there are also opportunities to work for large organisations. Career coaching is a growing profession.
