What’s Included
Because of the evolving nature of the course of study, course details may change slightly. The current structure includes:
- An initial peer interview with another participant.
- A four-day initial retreat at Bend of Ivy Lodge. This retreat will center on conducting coaching interviews, making initial assessments, establishing competency-based coaching outcomes and practices, integrating somatic practices, and launching our Community of Inquiry.
- A Day of Presence with Horses. We will spend one of our initial retreat days exploring presence with horses.
- An individual 30-minute coaching session with Bebe or Amy after the first retreat, along with availability of faculty support by email and brief phone appointments as needed.
- Two audio reviews of recorded coaching sessions, and two written case studies. You will receive extensive faculty feedback and assessments on your work.
- Five monthly conference calls that include in-depth study of the competency model and exercises, demonstrations, group discussion and/or live coaching.
- One mid-course community virtual conference to practice accountability to coaching outcomes, and to refine coaching approaches mid-stream.
- Six “pod” coaching calls in trios, in which participants coach each other towards their commitment, and receive assessments on their coaching.
- On-going coaching relationships with at least two outside clients on which students receive supervision and feedback through self-assessments, case write-ups and audio reviews.
- A four-day closing retreat at Bend of Ivy Lodge, incorporating somatic practices, coaching around commitment, and teaching on Presence-Based Coaching. This retreat will focus on coaching for completion, contextualizing coaching in a life-long evolutionary development process, a final live coaching certification demonstration, and completing our Community of Inquiry.
- Reading and additional resources include a community website, audio recordings, and cutting edge conferencing technology. Doug’s two books are required pre-course reading; additional reading is also required.
- A final, live coaching demonstration with a live client in front of the class and two assessors, required for completion of the course.
- Documentation of certification as Presence-Based® Coach, and documentation of completion of Level 2 requirements for ICF credentialing (IMPORTANT: certification is NOT GUARANTEED, and is dependent on completion of all requirements and a successful live coaching demonstration.)
- Optional participation, during LIPCC, in PBC I and/or II retreats, at ridiculously low cost.
