OVERVIEW
What sets us apart from other courses, which focus more on distance learning, is the opportunity to learn in a professional group, honing skills, discussing the material and using the techniques under skilled supervision.
In between sessions there are practice groups, so there is the continuity of contact and on-going skill-honing and support.
All candidates are furnished with a range of materials that can be used in coaching at all levels and the course itself attracts people from the major professions, the worlds of theatre, business and industry as well as people moving from the world of counselling and therapy.
Its main aim is to provide high quality training involving theory skills and practice to train competent, ethical and confident coaches.
This course has a quality award from EMCC and has an endorsed award from the Institute of Leadership and Management.
It also includes an MA as an option for those wishing to pursue an HE award alongside their Professional Accreditation.
ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
If this has not yet been available then a willingness on behalf of the candidate to attend some personal development workshops during and after the course. (The purpose of this is to make sure our own needs and wishes are not put on our coaching clients.) This makes sure that the coach has good self awareness and is therefore more able to give the coached person the highest quality service.

Taster Days
We offer one-day tasters in all of our longer training. These days are both informative and fun and you will leave with some useful tools. They take place 2-3 times a year, dates can be found in the Workshops section of the website. If you decide to progress onto further training the amount you have paid will be discounted from the course fees.
Coaching Taster Day
Coaching is a relatively new kid on the block, though it has been around for decades in other disguises. Essentially it operates from a premise that many people need a forum in which to assess their current personal or work situation and plan for the future in a strategic way that takes account of their beliefs, their values, the system in which they live and the overall ecology of the situation. It concentrates on now rather than the past and works for the betterment of the future. Read more...
I wasn't sure what to expect of the Iron Mill course but I loved every minute of it. The tutors and course content are nothing short of excellent, I would definitely recommend studying here. Thank You so much!
