To answer the question of\u00a0how to become a life coach<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span> I think it\u2019s important to answer an even more important question and that is “What is a Life Coach<\/strong>?”<\/p>\n Life coaching is a practice with the aim of helping clients determine and achieve personal goals. Life coaches use multiple methods that will help clients with the process of setting and reaching goals. Coaching is not targeted at psychological illness and coaches are not therapists or consultants.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n That\u2019s a pretty big definition so it stands to reason that training is an important factor.<\/p>\n How to <\/strong>become a life coach<\/strong><\/span><\/span> is best served through working with a qualified\u00a0organization. There are the large schools such as Adler in Canada or CTI but there are also many worthy companies such as JTS advisors who offer excellent training in strategy, accountability and assessment coaching.<\/p>\n The kind of\u00a0Life Coach training<\/span><\/strong><\/span> you will need may very depending on the facility but the core training for each will cover the art and science of coaching. The skills you will learn in exchange for your coaches training fees<\/strong> include: effective listening, effective questioning, intervention techniques, leadership effectiveness, accountability and strategy techniques, change technologies and more. You will also receive tools for change, inner psychology, code of ethics, and contracting with your client. Your curriculum should include classroom (virtual or at location), peer to peer coaching, coach the coach, home assignments, lectures, resources and reading and evaluation.<\/p>\n In Terms of Life Coach Training<\/span>, How Much Does it Cost?<\/p>\n Life coach training fees<\/strong> range from\u00a0hundreds\u00a0to thousands and even 10’s of thousands of dollars. \u00a0If you are buying a coaching franchise, you will probably be paying over $10,000.00 (and usually more like $100,000.00). \u00a0The most important thing to know is wether or not you are getting great value for your money, because many coaches training organizations are expensive for what you get. \u00a0Some of these organizations could simply be carpet baggers, squatting on an opportunity to take advantage of well meaning, yet naive people. \u00a0How do you avoid those more ‘scammy’ types of trainings? \u00a0Talk to people who did the training and see what they thought and what kind of results they are getting.<\/p>\n How to become a life coach<\/span><\/span><\/span> begins with the decision to enter into one of the most rewarding careers you can choose. Life coach training<\/span> is the surest way to learn the most advanced coaching techniques that will benefit your clients. Life Coach training is designed by leaders in this field and who are there to provide you with the means to take your coaching techniques and business to the next level.
