Coaching is increasingly becoming one of the most sought after and important skills for anyone in a work environment. It is a skill that no manager can live without. The days of direct commands from managers to their employees are long gone.
Coaching is increasingly becoming one of the most sought after and important skills for anyone in a work environment. It is a skill that no manager can live without. The days of direct commands from managers to their employees are long gone.
The importance of inspiring and guiding employees to realise their abilities and discover their power and responsibilities can no longer be ignored. This is why any successful company is now deeply interested in formal and informal coaching carried out continuously in the workplace.
Coaching is not limited to managers and team leaders. Coaching skills are essential in helping and inspiring your colleagues, friends and family. This course focuses on the latest proven methods of coaching and covers important topics such as structuring effective communications, successful questioning methods and active listening techniques, the GROW model, human behaviour, motivational conversations, giving feedback or praise and many other relevant topics.
Coaching Skills course will introduce you to the mentality of successful coaches, the effective methods of managing resistive or defensive coachees, the ability to control your emotions and to use others in inspiring and directing them towards achieving their goals.
We have always been told what to do by our parents, teachers, boss or even our colleagues. Telling however, has proven ineffective when it comes to successful coaching. This course will teach you about sound and fundamentally proven coaching techniques which promise clear vision, measured objectives and great results for coachee.
We know the best way to learn is by examples and hands-on experience, therefore this course is packed with effective practical and interactive exercises which would help you to quickly grasp different aspects of a well-delivered coaching session. Many questioning examples, scenarios and case studies are also provided throughout the course.

Our History
Skills Converged was founded in 2008 by Dr Ethan (Ehsan) Honary. With a background in artificial intelligence and space robotics, Ethan became increasingly interested in cognitive psychology, science of learning and eventually the training industry.
His interest and passion in the subject grew strong enough that he eventually decided to leave his full-time job in the space industry to establish a new training company.
Now for more than a decade, Skills Converged has been offering quality training products and services all across the world and has acquired numerous clients including global brands, governments, training agencies and freelancers.
With a background in technology, educational psychology and research, Skills Converged is uniquely positioned to produce state-of-the-art products which none of our competitors can match.
Based in London, we are right at the heart of the training industry in the United Kingdom. We regularly run training courses in London, our most popular one being Train the Trainer course.
We constantly analyse and receive feedback from the training community which allows us to improve the quality of our products rapidly and use this knowledge in the design of our future courses.
This is a continuous process, but one that we love to pursue and that it helps us produce unrivalled products.
The Pillars of Our Design Methodology
We use the following design principles:
Must Lead to Long Term Learning
A training course, delivered in whatever form, is not worth the time or money if attendees are not going to learn or remember the content for long. They might as well not attend.
In the last three decades, we have come a long way in understanding the role of long-term memory in cognition and subsequently in learning and training. We are enthusiastic about these developments and insights and use them throughout our entire design process.
Must Maximise Training Per Unit of Time
Time is a scarce resource. We use accelerated learning principles, experimental learning, knowledge-based learning, participatory learning, and a host of other techniques in the design of our training materials to make sure we can achieve maximum results in the shortest amount of time on any given topic.
Must Be Easy to Use
As a subject matter expert, you know the content well. When it comes to training, most of your focus, as much as 90%, should be on the training activity rather than figuring out what to teach.
We are aware of this principle and work hard to design training materials that are easy to pick up, understand and deliver. With well-designed content, you spend less time figuring out what to cover and more time on how to meet your delegates’ specific training needs. We always aim to save you time.
Our Advanced Diploma programme will enable you to make significant shifts both personally and professionally in the depth of your coaching work and will certify you with the EMCC at Senior Practitioner (EQA and EIA) level.
This qualification is designed to provide learners with the skills and knowledge to be able to appropriately coach and mentor other learners.
This course will teach candidates that how coaching and mentoring are related to each other and what is the main difference between both of them. Delegates will have a clear understanding and vision of the dynamics that occur between individuals while working.
Coaching is often confused with feedback, which can negatively impact the long-term sustainability of behavioural change initiatives.
