Education and Training are often the Cornerstones of a successful Life

1. Education and Training are often the Cornerstones of a successful Life Everybody knows that life coaching helps thousands if not millions of people world- wide every day to achieve goals. Life coaches, much like other professionals, receive training to help people in this regard. Training, education, can never be overemphasized, not for the teacher, the doctor, the auto mechanic or the professional golfer, or the life coach. The life coach is that professional that offers his/her services to the public that can benefit from their knowledge and input in terms of which the coach gives their client the tools to help them lead happier, more fulfilled personal or professional – or both – lives. To be able to do this, the coach first has to qualify, just as any other professional has to be trained or educated. Coaches are therefore offered courses and programs by institutes and training centers to prepare them for their own professional lives. Depending on the exact nature of the courses, and the advanced stages that may interest the individual, the best centers will make sure they offer great courses to cater to various levels and to ensure that they can help all interested parties. Some attendees may only want limited instruction, others more advanced

They may want to receive very advanced training and will therefore make sure they attend different courses – not only one, for example – and to this end they will look at the best training centers to help them become outstanding coaches. Good training centers understand that they will be sought-after if they offer great programs to their candidates. This also means they employ great trainers and teachers that are able to design and present courses to candidate life coaches that will have to deal with clients once they qualify and receive their diplomas or certificates. Individuals that need the assistance and support of a good life coach will obviously want to know that they have approached a well-qualified coach, one that has received their instruction from a leading school, institute or training body. The best ones among these do indeed offer superior instruction, they are known for the success their students achieve as good coaches, and they are highly rated by the ICF, the International Coaching Federation. Being accredited by this body is an ideal for all good life coaches since it sets them apart from others who do not enjoy this accreditation. Therefore candidate coaches will want to study at a school or institute that is regarded by the ICF, because they will be seen to offer great courses to their students and they will also be regarded as a professional, ethical institute that makes sure their candidates have reached the highest levels of knowledge and professionalism to prepare them for the life of coaches. These institutes discern themselves from other lesser centers insofar as that they offer sought-after courses for their candidates, and they constantly test them and offer their courses around outcomes such as exams, for example. Students that choose a good, professional training center can be assured of receiving a great education, and their clients will also know that their coach graduated from a sought-after institute. Clients will always want to know that they are dealing with a good, well-educated coach, one that offers accreditation from a leading body in his/her industry, such as the ICF. Once an individual decides to become a life coach, it would serve him/her well to ensure they study the profile of the center they are planning to receive their training from, for the courses they offer, but also for their own accreditation with the ICF. Professionalism the world over is measured in terms of various issues, one being the standing one enjoys among one’s peers, one’s competition – and the clients. For life coaches that also means being members of the ICF.
