Coaching Skills Certificate™

Learning the Foundational Skills for RW Life Coaching and Conflict Coaching

Please see our Academic Catalog for information on how this course relates to and synchronizes with other courses and training tracks.

Purpose: Coaching Skills training is designed to introduce you to basic coaching skills by providing opportunities to learn and practice three core coaching skills: active listening, asking powerful questions and creating action steps. This training provides practice in applying the four-step RW Coaching Paradigm, but these skills apply equally well to RW360’s other academic offerings (shepherding, instructing and conciliation). Students may take this course either before or after they pursue the Conversational Coaching Certificate. This course is a prerequisite for the RW Life Coaching Certificate and the RW Conflict Coaching Certificate.

This training provides a brief introduction to the four-step RW Coaching Paradigm and shows how it can be applied in a variety of life situations. It will also help you to evaluate how relevant these skills are to your life and to decide whether to continue with further coaching training.
