You can also take up our group supervision offer (at a reduced rate of £250 for six sessions per year) or you can arrange your own coaching supervision if you prefer.
​
We offer a tailored learning experience where, alongside core modules, you have the opportunity to specialise at Master Practitioner level by selecting a module of your choice from our Level 6 option block. There is plenty of opportunity to craft your assignments and portfolio work to suit your health coaching practice and personal interests whether working in independent practice, the NHS, voluntary sector or workplace.
