How it Works
Core Course Lectures
The Master’s Seminar Series Certificate in Professional Coaching (M-CPC) Program is an advanced Graduate Seminar certificate taught in live online instruction. No course papers are required. Using the D.I.A.M.O.N.D.S. CORE COMPETENCIES FOR COACHING curriculum developed by Dr. Merle Ray, this program is typically presented on weekends as full-day courses. The material is based upon the International Coach Federation (ICF) definition of coaching, its code of ethics, core values, standards, and core competencies and is estimated to take as little as 3 months when delivered on full-day weekends. To complete the training hours for the program, the student must attend and participate for all offered live sessions. This Master’s Seminar certificate is designed to assist individuals wanting to apply master’s level skills in their own private practice or in seeking opportunities for coaching in corporate business and industry. Graduates may desire to set up their own coaching practice, seek opportunities to coach in organizations, or blend coaching with their existing areas of work expertise. This program is only offered when there is a waiting list of at least 10 students enrolled. There is an approved textbook for this program which also serves as a workbook and contains all of the lessons, instructions for the performance evaluations/coaching labs, and assessments. All lectures, labs, performance evaluations, and assessments must be attended live. There are (11) live synchronous learning courses in this program worth 16 course time hours and (1) Independent Study course worth 15 program hours. Up to (20) individual live coaching labs worth 20 program hours are allowed for this ELTU program; a minimum of (8) individual live coaching labs are required totaling 8 program hours. To earn the Master’s Seminar Series Certificate in Professional Coaching, students must attend and participate in all the required live core course lectures, and they must complete a minimum of (8) recorded live coaching sessions, i.e. coaching labs. These recorded sessions will be observed and rated as performance evaluations. The student can obtain up to a total of 211 course time hours of direct program instruction to earn the Master’s Seminar Series Certificate in Professional Coaching, and a minimum of 200 program hours of instruction, including the coaching labs.
Labs
As discussed above, during the program period, the student will setup, record, and complete at least (9) coaching sessions worth one program clock hour each. Including any prep work, each coaching session may last up to 60 minutes. The sessions may take place online or offline at his/her convenience working with the person being coached. The student, not the school, is responsible for acquiring, setting up, recording, and completing the coaching session with his/her client or persons being coached. The student has up to the end of the program to complete all coaching sessions. At the end of the program to receive the Certificate, the student must submit each coaching session to be evaluated by the instructor. The coaching session recordings may be presented to the International Coach Federation (ICF) as performance evaluations for the School’s training and quality purposes, as well as for any future ICF accreditation or application process. Each Performance Evaluation coaching session is focused on the person being coached and what he/she is presenting for their coaching work and conversation. The student will record the session with permission being granted on the recording from the person being coached and a word-for-word verbatim transcript must accompany the recording. Session can be a coaching engagement with an individual who is or is not a student in the program. The session may not be with a coach already (unless the person is a regular client of the coaching student). The session may be a paid or pro-bono coaching session. These sessions should enable the student to practice learned coaching principles, methods, and techniques from the lectures and identify strengths and weaknesses, highlight areas for improvement, and track and monitor performance. The performance evaluation labs become a source of motivation and reward for the student’s development and growth as a professional coach. Other tools such as the ICF Professional Coach Markers are also utilized as reference and evaluation tools.
There is no minimum length of time required for the performance evaluation coaching session. Sessions should be long enough for a coaching conversation. These sessions will be evaluated by an instructor/observer who is responsible for providing written feedback to the student, noting the student’s use of the ICF Core Competencies in the coaching session. These sessions may be observed live by the instructor/observer or offline, but still must be recorded each time. The coaching sessions count as part of the total instructional hours of the program. ELTU may submit these coaching sessions, and the corresponding written feedback for the submitted recording to student sponsors, court or governmental agencies, ICF, or other outside agencies for program purposes such as review for school or program accreditation, continuous improvement, quality purposes, and to enhance the learning experience.
Confidentiality must be maintained in coach training lab sessions. ELTU will only submit recordings for which ELTU has received explicit permission from the person being coached and the student for review purposes and performance evaluation assessing the quality and methods of the coaching. Students will keep a copy of all their recorded coaching files. The maximum # of recordings a student may submit for performance evaluation purposes to the instructor is 2 recorded coaching sessions for each of the courses in this graduate program. When ready to submit the performance evaluation coaching sessions, the student will upload each recording and a typed transcript electronically using the student’s secured user login ID and password. Feedback will be provided in the form of a written performance evaluation report from the instructor and this information may also be provided to the International Coach Federation or other agencies for program or school accreditation purposes.
Lab File Guidelines
- In MP3, WMA or MP4 (audio) formats. Other formats will not be accepted. 95 megabytes or less for each file. Use a lower bit rate to decrease file size, if needed.
- Student will provide a word-for-word verbatim transcript of the coaching session and label the recorded files with student’s name and a number, i.e., JoeSmith1.mp3.
- Providing a URL to download or stream audio recordings will not be accepted.
- Of a complete coaching session (not edited) lasting up to 60 minutes. Those that exceed 60-minutes will not be scored.
- From an actual coaching session between the student and a paid or pro bono client. The individual being coached may not be a coach unless they are a regular client of the student’s ministry or coaching practice.
- English language only is acceptable when coaching session is submitted for this course.
Discussion Forum Online
ELTU Instructors offer either a Live Group Discussion Forum Event or an ELTU Student Community Posted Discussion Forum Online. The Discussion Forum is the place for knowledge sharing with those who are enrolled at ELTU currently, or to hear from others who have been enrolled previously and have posted their experiences and comments in reply to the Instructor’s Questions covered in the Course Curriculum / Syllabus. These questions are typically regarding personal, professional, or spiritual transformation, leadership, coaching, change management, or any aspect of the given course or program. Where you see an icon labelled “Discussion Forum” or content labelled as such in your Class syllabus, your participation in the Discussion Forum is required and will be graded to successfully complete the program. Where indicated in your Syllabus, a student may attend a live Discussion Forum via ELTU events or ELTU live seminars offered in lieu of posting to the ELTU student community discussion board. If these live events are available, they will be posted to the ELTU student community discussion boards and listed on your syllabus. If a student has not attended either a Live Discussion Forum Event Seminar or Posted Discussion Forum Online to perform and complete the required weekly check-ins, the Instructor may recommend to the School Director that the student be withdrawn from the program (see policy on Satisfactory Progress and Academic Probation).
Online Assessment
An assessment of the student’s knowledge gained from the course is necessary to measure progress and readiness for professional coaching. The Online Coaching Assessment tests the student’s understanding of the body of knowledge that includes the ICF definition of coaching, Core Competencies, cove values, standards, and Code of Ethics, and is intended to measure coaches’ understanding of the knowledge and skills important in the practice of coaching.
Program can only be offered when there is a minimum enrollment of 10 students on the Interested Participants list.
