What are coaches saying about our online courses?
Foundations of Session Design
The course has taught me to look more closely and critically at my own training. I hope that in the future I will be able to tailor my training even better to the age groups that attend my training sessions. This course is extremely suitable for the starting trainer/coach but is also very useful for more experienced trainers. In any case, I learned a lot from it!

One of the best online courses available with World Class instructors assisting you along the way to have a clear understanding of coaching and development . If you are new to coaching or would like to refresh you skill base I would highly recommend this course.

Great course content, valuable for coaches of all levels, whether that's reminders on the basics or ideas not seen or used before - it's a great blend. Looking forward to researching the additional resources on specific topics that inspired me to look deeper, especially into the individual learning plans. Well done!
