The Diploma of Leadership, Coaching and Mentoring is an incredibly valuable program and qualification for commercial lawyers who are seeking to improve their own performance and the performance of others in this sector. It offers significant opportunities for personal and professional development and demonstrates value from the very first day of teaching.

Emotional Intelligence
Positive Psychology

Neuroscience and NLP Techniques

Our programs offer the unique advantage of having been designed and developed specifically to align with the eight new core competencies recognised by the International Coach Federation (ICF), as essential to being a professional coach. The ICF are the leading professional body for coaching and it is a rigourous process to be an endorsed ICF Accredited Coach Training Program (ACTP). We have worked hard to gain and maintain this, which means you get the opportunity to gain not just a national, but also an international qualification. These new competencies were released in November and that aligned perfectly with our Australian reaccreditation process.

The program incorporates the 10 mentor coaching hours that are a prerequisite for gaining your ICF Credential. After you finish the program we can support you with ongoing mentoring to ensure you achieve your ICF Credential.
