Courses

 

This section is designed for people who have attended the in-person iWAM Certification Training for 2 days.  The contents of this section contain learning that would normally be in Day 3 of the iWAM Consultant Certification.  There are also  additional resources to download and save, and a Close-out Quiz that needs to be completed to receive the iWAM Consultant Accreditation.

Please download all the resources and save them to your own digital filing system for future reference.

The materials contained here are distributed to our NLP Practitioner Students only.  They contain 18 days worth of NLP training, as MP3 files to listen to on your own device (to download) or as videos to watch here.

These materials are used under license, and provide a ‘second description’ from another awesome trainer of NLP, Richard Bolstad.  They include a PDF of another NLP Manual.  Students are provided these materials under trust that they will not distribute them to people outside of the The Neuro Coaching Academy Trainings.

You will also find here the NLP Conceptual Evaluation Paper. This contains approximately 50 short answer questions that are intended to support your conscious mind learning of NLP theory. All the answers to these questions are available in the Manual that you receive in class.

Comments are enabled under each video, please feel free to comment here as you watch the video, or in your class Facebook Group.

I hope you enjoy these fabulous resources.

Welcome!

An Overview of the E-learning and Online Component of the Training

The e-learning contained here includes content to help you prepare if you have registered for the course early, and would like to get started and/or to review what you covered in the 12 days of workshops.

Of the 3 lessons, Professional Coaching is the only one is that is ‘REQUIRED’. This one also includes quizzes to support your learning.  This e-learning can be taken at any time in the program but must be completed prior to your first online mentoring experience.  Your mentoring commences after the 12 workshop days have completed.

The Introduction to Coaching is useful prior to attend any workshops, to help understand the connection between Coaching and NLP as a methodology that Coaches use.   Content from that module is also covered in the first workshop day.

The final lesson,  Additional Practice, Resources and Readings contain information about the Online Coaching Practice Group and other goodies to help you to integrate your learning, following the in-person workshops.

The NLP Practitioner Home Study

 As part of the course, you will also need to go to the NLP Practitioner E-learning and download the NLP Practitioner Paper. This is a requirement of the course.  If you wish to receive your ABNLP NLP Practitioner Certificate, you will also need to access the recordings there.  You have been granted access to this already, and can access it from the Course menu (top left) or by clicking here.   

If you are attending the program as an intensive (delivered in a single block), please do your best to go through these resources in the lead-up, as this will help you to manage the large volume of new information in the intensive format.

The  Videos for NLP are NOT a direct recording of the course you will be attending, but a longer NLP Practitioner Program delivered by another (awesome) trainer.  So, it will not feel like a total repeat in person.  It is more than you have two descriptions of NLP. The Video recordings by Richard Bolstad cover more than we can cover in 10 days.  The audio quality is not the easiest, unfortunately, so other audio files are provided if you find this frustrating.  You are free to choose which ones to access to support you to prepare for the intensive training and to complete the NLP Practitioner Paper.

The Business of Coaching Program is not a requirement but is strongly recommended if you intend to establish your own professional coaching practice as a self-employed Coach.  You can access this at any time from the Courses menu item, or go to it here.  You do not need to wait until the end of the course to start this, you can access this whenever you choose. When people complete this, they can also request a 1-hour individual mentoring session with the Trainer on building a Coaching-based business.

Your access to all of these resources is live for 12 months.

Your quiz results will be emailed both to you and the course trainer as you complete the quiz.

Live Contact Online, following your 12 Workshop Days

After the 12 Workshop Days, you are required to attend:

• 2 x 2 hour online Coaching Practice Group (held monthly)
• 2 x 3.5 hour online Group Coach Mentoring
• 2 x 1.5 hour online Individual Coach Mentoring

This is all scheduled for your program to occur over the space of 3 months minimum.   You may take longer, to a maximum of 6 months.  Anything longer than this will need to be negotiated as an extension.

Please check your Welcome Email for the exact dates for your Program and the final date for completion of all the course requirements.

Note that the hours of online contact AND your eLearning for ‘Professional Coaching’ are included as ‘Coach Specific Training’ and cannot be missed if you wish to complete the ICF certificate that is currently under application.

After you have completed this, you are asked to submit a 20-minute recording of a coaching session with someone who is not a fellow student, or a Coach.  You will receive written feedback on this from your Trainer, that will support your decision whether or not to use the recording in an ICF application for an Accredited Coach Credential.

In total, you will receive feedback in writing from 5 observed coaching sessions during this program, as per the ICF guidelines for a coach qualification.

We very much hope that you enjoy the program, both online and in person.

 

The Inventory of Work Attitudes and Motivations

The remarkable 21st century instrument based on Cognitive Science, measuring 48 unconscious programs that drive your attitudes, motivation, passion and performance at work.

The iWAM is a powerful profiling instrument that measures 48 unconscious ‘programs’ that we all have, at different levels and combinations.

Attitudes and Motivational Patterns are different from what is measured in Personality Profiles because:

• They are cognitive processes that can be recognised in the language patterns that people use – how someone talks, not what they say
• They are context specific – we can have one in ‘life’ context and the opposite in ‘work’ context
• They can be changed through personal development and coaching – we have the choice to change if we want
• Understanding metaprograms never involves judging or categorising someone – instead, the iWAM provides a very accurate description of a unique and flexible human being.

What You Will Learn

Coaching is a truly satisfying and wonderful way to make a living and many people have a dream to work as a Coach.  Whilst there are more ‘internal coach’ roles emerging in large organisations, and more large organisations offering sub-contract opportunities for coaches than ever before,  it is still the case that the majority of Coaches who make a living are self-employed.

This e-learning is intended to provide an introduction to building a coaching-based business for someone who has never experienced self employment before.   Many people starting out as Coaches are also starting out in their first experience of Self-Employment.

If you have heard that if you just ‘follow your passion’ you will earn a six figure income as a Coach, and suspect that there is actually a lot of work involved, we promise that this program will take the mystery out of discovering what that work is.

Over five modules you will learn the fundamentals of:

• What you need to know about operating a business
• Key decisions and activities required to create a commercially viable Coaching Business
• The fundamentals of Marketing and Sales in a service-based business
• Sales for Coaches

An e-book just on the topic of sales and marketing is provided to give you greater depth on this crucial topic.  This book provides an outline for creating your own  28 Day Marketing Plan to get started.

The content is careful to cover off the entire market for professional coaching (small business, workplace/executive, or personal coaching)  in order to be useful for all Professional Coaches.  If you are just starting out in your coaching career, it is useful to understand the full market for coaching, before you decide on your own focus, or niche.

As part of this program you will receive a 60 minute online Individual Mentoring Session with the Trainer.

Templates and Resources

The Program includes a generous set of templates and resources:

• A Comprehensive Manual for capturing your learning and thinking in response to the modules
• A template in Excel for the essential financial management tasks
• A template in Word for a Business Plan that is customised for a Coaching Business
• An E-Book called ‘Building Your Website on a Shoestring’ that will save you many weeks of online research
• GET CLIENTS NOW! Kindle E-book on marketing for a service-based business

I am sorry to say that since recording this elearning we can no longer send people an Amazon ebook as a Gift. It also appears that the Kindle ebook is not always even available on Amazon.

We have discovered you can also download it as an ebook here for $12.99, or order hard copy from an Australian source:

https://www.booktopia.com.au/get-clients-now-tm–c-hayden/ebook/9780814432464.html

This program is designed and delivered by Grace Minton, the owner of The Neuro Coaching Academy, a training and coaching business.  Grace has experience as an owner of a six-figure coaching-based business based mostly on in-person coaching and public trainings; and, more recently as a Co-Founder of The Entrepreneur Arena, an online business that integrates coaching as part of an offering for small business owners and entrepreneurs.

Grace is a PCC ICF Coach who has worked in both Executive and personal development markets.

This program represents not only what is well known in the industry and in small business management, but information that has been learnt the hard way, from experience.  The content is very much designed with Coaching Graduates with no prior business experience in mind.
