AoEC Ireland/N. Ireland Open Event

Have you thought about training to be a coach, but found it hard to know where to turn?

It’s understandable. You’re about to shell out a lot of money (well, you will be if it’s a credible coaching course!) and you want to know the company is reputable.

You would like to get the chance to ask questions; to meet the people who will be training you; and perhaps to speak to someone who has already been on the programme themselves.

Well, now is your chance!

We are hosting our first AoEC Ireland/N. Ireland open event on Thursday, 16th June!

This free, interactive workshop event offers a taster into the world of executive coaching to help you with your decision-making.

The session will be 2 hours and you will get to spend that time with the programme trainers – Trudy Arthurs and Louise Nicholson – as well as speak to some past participants of the programme. Putting a face to a name can help make an important connection that could make your decision that much easier.

The event will include a discussion around what coaching is/isn’t, a live coaching demonstration with an attendee, information on our programmes and the opportunity to hear from and chat with a recent graduate of our Practitioner Diploma.

Did you also know that graduates of our Practitioner Diploma in Executive Coaching are eligible to apply for accreditation with the International Coach Federation, the Assocation for Coaching, and the European Mentoring and Coaching Council?

So, come along and see us on 16th June!

Please also consider forwarding this information to anyone you know who might be interested in training to become a Coach; or any organisations you know of that would like to send some team members on an executive coaching programme.

We are excited about this one and hope to see lots of new faces on 16th!
