Co-active Coaching Intermediate

Co-Active Coaching describes the dance between the coach and the client, which is created in the moment. It is a unique, proactive alliance in which coach and client work together as equals to meet the needs of the client.

Principles
The offered courses are designed to teach that subtle dance and focus on experiential learning where participants experience and practice coaching instead of just talking about it. CTI's coaching curriculum is designed to integrate Co-Active coaching competencies deeply in your being rather than in your head, so that you can be responsive in the moment to a variety of client types and needs. Once you have completed this curriculum you will have the ability to coach with confidence in your own personal, authentic style.

Program
The core curriculum consists of five courses. Each course is a three-day intensive course based on experiential learning. The total co-active coaching curriculum has been accredited by the International Coach Federation (ICF).
The four-course intermediate coach training program is intended as the next step for individuals moving toward Certified Professional Co-Active Coach. All courses are three days long and are designed to be taken in the following sequence:

• Fulfillment coaching is about having clients let go of preconceived rules and limitations and step into what truly brings them alive.
• Balance coaching: guiding your clients to make powerful life choices and to select the experiences they want most, rather than dashing about either at the mercy of circumstances or trying to have it all.
• Process coaching is about being with clients wherever they are on the flowing river of their lives - in the strong current, the still pools or the rapids and eddies.
• In the Bones is an integrative course that deepens your confidence and solidifies the skills that have been taught in the previous fourcourses.

Hands-on training provides a powerful introduction to the techniques and skills of Co-Active Coaching. The focus is on participation and practical experience rather than lecture, with numerous opportunities to coach and receive feedback on your newly acquired coaching skills. At the end of the course you will have a very clear idea just how coaching might fit into your life. The co-active workshops will be given in English by two experienced international coaches of the Coaches Trainings Institute (CTI).
