Coach Mentoring Programme (CM1)

Mentor coaching is a focussed program where your coaching skills are assessed and provided targeted feedback on development areas to continue to build on your coaching ability over the course of the program.

It is a requirement of the ICF that coach’s access a minimum of 10 hours mentoring with an ICF credentialled coach to ensure the global industry standards of coaching are maintained. It is required for your credentialing application.

What a pleasure it was to take part in the CA Coach Mentoring Program! With the perfect combination of honing in on the ICT competencies and practical coaching I thoroughly enjoyed each of the 7 fortnightly mentoring sessions. Revisiting the competencies allowed me to consider how I am aligning to these in my coaching practice and what more I could do to provide further value to those that I coach. The opportunity to observe others coaching and to coach in front of my peers was invaluable. I felt privileged to be in a safe space where observing, giving and receiving feedback as well as having thoughtful discussion was warmly welcomed by the group. I highly recommend the CA Coach Mentoring Program to others!

Group Mentor Coaching Process (7.5 hours)

The group sessions are organised so that one or two of the ICF Core Competencies are focused upon and discussed in each call for 20 minutes.

The remaining hour of each call will involve coaching. You will receive a schedule for the program with your role on the call (ie coach |coachee | observer).
2 participants will have a separate allocated 15-minute block to coach and 15 minutes of targeted feedback from everyone.

Individual Mentor Coaching (3 hours)

Your individual sessions are booked in with your Coach Mentor at a mutually suitable time following the group sessions.
You bring along a recorded coaching session to unpack with your mentor. You also get the opportunity if you choose to coach your mentor and debrief together.
