Free Coach Training Members Speak Out

Tweet

  

 

With just over 500 sign-ups in the month since we launched the Free Coach Training Program, I thought it was time to check in with participants and see how it's going.

Last week, I sent out a survey to members and here's what I learned. 

Biggest concerns about joining: Would the quality be any good? Would the coaching certificate mean anything? Would I have time to do the work?

What they found: The greatest number said, they're glad they joined. Followed by the quality is very good and they're inspired by coaching. They also found that the pre-recorded format makes it possible to go slow or totally immerse oneself in the training.

In their own words, the greatest benefits are: 

• greater belief in the value of coaching
• I'm getting a better understanding of what coaching is and what it is not.
• More awareness on how to ask questions
• I've only had the time to listen to the first 3 classes and print out all the materials, so it's nice to know I can listen in when I do have the time.
• I've found a lot of positive reinforcement that I'm effectively coaching people already.
• Affirmation of how transferable my therapy skills are for coaching.
• Connection to my previous learning about spirit coaching
• New insights into coaching vs managing people
• A holistic approach to coaching and personal development
• I've decovered one of my stregths and one big improvement coaching will add to the way I serve my clients
• The fact that coaching is so close to facilitation. I love facilitation.
• I am gaining a greater sense of self.
• I've gained clarity about the coaching profession and its purpose.
• I am feeling more motivated and more confident to begin marketing myself.
• I feel this adds so much depth to my coach training! This is the real deal. I am excited to learn more.
• It's convinced me that what I thought may be true, really is. That coaching is my natural calling!
• Allowing myself to fully submerge myself in this training however I want to has helped me to use the training as a jumping off point, not only for coach training and learning, but learning about myself.
• I am brand new to coach training and it helped to hear the demonstrations

97% said they'd recommend this program to a friend.

What would they say?

• Try the first class and see what they think.
• If you want something different and easy to follow the mastery IAC certified coach, then try this one!
• Do it now! Don't delay.
• It is the very first step, a great foundation to start with.
• For anyone who is interested in becoming a coach, I'd say to take these free courses in order to get a better idea of what coaching is about and to learn some before investing in coaching school.
• I've already referred several people. I've told them they NEED to check this out. It is not a scam. There is no "catch." It's about quality training from a servant's heart (Julia).
• If you want to become a coach, take Julia's course.
• Do it!
• It's quality coach training for free. And it instantly adds value to the learner both professional and personal.
• I would describe the resources available on-line, including classes, blogs, and study group. I would share how these resources are helping me with knowledge, understanding, and competency.
• The content is good and helpful to anyone working with people in any capacity.
• That if they are really interested in coaching, intend to incorporate coaching into their business, want to be a coach or just want some insight into themselves, this program is a must!
• That even if they did not decide to pursue a coaching career, the training may give them ideas about how to evaluate their own concerns and maybe even seek out a coach for themselves.
• It's wonderfull, You'll learn a lot and feel gently guided by Julia in a very safe environment. I can't believe this is for free, and she give a lor of great, quality coaching training. It's worth every second you devote to your training
• This is a great, free, opportunity to learn about coaching and see if it is a career they would be interested in pursuing, or doing on the side along with their other work.
• Just do it!
• I would tell them that if they want to pursue coaching as a career choice, The SCM is the place to get your training.
• Good discussions on the audios with pdfs to support them. I like how Julia leads discussions - she's obviously a masterful coach.
• This program is the real deal! Not only is it helpful, but it's a great starting point for something greater. There's no way you can lose!
• The training is free Why don't you give it a try.
• Julia is a fantastic role model for what coaching should be. Her high standards and ethics are very apparent in the coursework she designed, and in her interaction with her students.
• Take the time in between classes to integrate the lessons, questions, and work into your own life. Take some of the things that you hear to heart and apply them to your own life. Have a willingness to "discover" what you are learning.

I'm happy to add that the single most most requested program improvement will be added this week. Yes, we're still adding courses and features. We're serious about making this a solid alternative to spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on coach training before you know what you're getting into.

There's still time for you to be one of the first to pass the online exam and receive the SCM Coaching Certificate. The exam will be available at the end of September. Jump in now. It's all free.
