Coaching is an essential professional development tool that promotes professional development and helps to retain a highly skilled workforce. This course will explore the foundations of coaching and how they can be applied in your work. Throughout the five modules, we will examine the “Being and Doing” of coaching. We will explore the mindset you need to lean into as a coach, as well as specific skills used to support growth and development. You will have opportunities for individual learning as well as collaborative learning with your colleagues.

• Learn how coaching can transform your organization and workforce
• Engage in individual and collaborative learning with other professionals, and with the series facilitators, who are certified by the International Coaching Federation (ICF)
