- Powerful Questioning, Listening and Challenging skills
- The GROW Coaching Model
- The Coaching Relationship
- The commercial side of setting up a Coaching Business (via e-learning)
- A FULL 9 Days of NLP Practitioner Workshops, which includes the skills and tools for transformational coaching:
- The Mind-Set of an NLP Coach - the pre-suppositions of NLP
- How to create Rapport (trust and connection) deliberately, both verbally and non-verbally
- Creating a Goal that incorporates everything we know about how our unconscious mind works
- Learning the 'first language' of our mind - the Representational Systems that allow us to create powerful change rapidly
- Learning to observe the minute non-verbal communication in your Client that can support you to rapidly cut through 'story' to discover deeper levels of meaning
- A tool for helping your client discover an internal source of information and wisdom to support improved communication and empathy with others
- Using the 'internal coding of meaning' to create change at an unconscious level (contrasting and mapping sub-modalities). With this skill, we are able to work to create a replace a limiting belief, with a generative belief.
- The Meta-Model in Language- for surfacing how your clients are making the meanings in their own 'map', that are keeping them 'stuck', or 'unresourceful'
- The Milton-Model in Langauge - for guiding your client to focus inwardly in guided visualisations and accessing resources for change that were previously unconscious
- The Clean Language Model - a beautiful form of questioning for working cleanly with your client's metaphors and symbolic world to facilitate deep change in ways of creating meaning, very gently
- State Management Tools - simple anchoring and stacked anchoring, to support people to have greater choice in feelings, in a moment (e.g. to access and feel more confident during a meeting, or whilst public speaking)
- Resolving an internal conflict that causes someone to be paralysed in indecision or inaction (Parts Integration)
- The structure of a class NLP Coaching Session
- Mapping the mental 'strategies' that are fundamental to every behaviour/feeling that we have, as a way to design change. E.g. changing the strategy for 'getting out of bed in the morning' from 40 mins to 2 mins.
- A change pattern to end a bad habit
- Discovering the unconscious 'coding' for Time and using it to create changes such as - resolving feelings from the past, without ever having to re-live the memory, and creating a compelling goal for the future
- A Tool for facilitating your Client to access their creative thinking, their ability to plan and their critical thinking, in such as way that they are able to design a pathway to their own dreams, without their internal critic sabotaging them
- Revision exercises that help you to organise this massive toolkit for change and the transformational understanding of our minds that underlies it
What have Past Coaching and NLP Students had to Say?
During the program – I did exactly that! The teachings were incredible, my mind was expanded, I developed my coaching skill set, learned so much about myself, the human mind, how we communicate, make meaning and achieve results in our lives.
Words cannot express the gratitude I have for Grace so openly sharing her knowledge and teachings which run incredibly deep. I love the entire course, the content, the people, and how it has changed my life and now allows me the gift of sharing what I have learnt with others so they can create positive change in their world.

What More Could You Ask For in a Coaching Course?
Support after you Graduate!
Many people stay connected to their class mates from the Coaching Course and exchange Coaching (peer coaching). We really encourage our Graduates to RECEIVE Coaching and when you are a Coach, you can exchange Coaching with someone else at no cost, so why not?
People also often email in questions and wish for more contact with a Trainer in their first few years of practice. As a result I have developed a social website (like Facebook) that is just for Coaches and includes access to online Q&A sessions, and also helps people to organise into peer coaching groups on themes, and practice groups, with a minimum of effort. At the very least, it is a place where you can find someone else to exchange coaching with, who has a similar level of skills.
The Coaching Community is FREE to join (there is no membership fee). It is intended to help people connect and collaborate, as well as to continue their own personal development in the longterm.
Participants will receive both a Certificate of Life Coaching and an ABNLP Registered NLP Practitioner Qualification on completing
This program is pending accreditation with the ICF as ACSTH and CCEU 72 hours.
The ACSTH Certificate will read 'Professional Coaching with NLP'. Participants will receive a Certificate of Life Coaching on completing the course and be able to the join the International Coach Federation immediately.
Timing for issuing the ACSTH Certificate for this program will suit people who will be commencing their 100 hours of coaching experience for an ACC application from scratch with this course. We anticipate your ACTSH ACC application to be possible in September 2018, and that participants of this program will be able to receive the ICF ACSTH qualification certificate 4 months later.
If you are seeking a fully accredited program to apply for ACC within 3 months of commencing the course, please ask us about studying the Certificate of Professional Coaching with NLP Practitioner separately, as an alternative.
