Portfolio of Evidence Submission
As the global leader in Kids Life Coach Training, it is important to equip you to be able to transfer and apply what you learn in your training into real-life situations. This is the reason why we hope this will be unlike any training you have done before! We don’t believe in a power balance of theory that outweighs practical. In our experience knowledge is something that anybody can acquire, but to truly be effective as a Kids Life Coach, is about how you apply what you have learnt.
We promise to give you the skills and tools to coach children successfully, but this is reliant on you working towards developing and expanding your own mindset and skill set. We don’t want you to cruise through our training just so that you can be a mediocre coach. For us the words World-Class and Kids Life Coach cannot be separated and so we want you to strive to think, understand and apply what you learn with authority! You can expect experiential learning that will equip you for this and for you to do your best, you will need to use some high-level thinking that involves self-directed research. Your personal departure point will be based on your own past level of knowledge.
Participating in our scaffolded training allows you to gain the knowledge, skills and tools you need to quickly and easily launch your Kids Life Coaching practice. Due to the fact that our training at Kids Life Studio® is personalised and mentorship driven, we offer this opportunity for you to submit a portfolio of evidence to obtain feedback, verify your skills and to be issued your accredited certificates. This will give you the opportunity to be verified and to join a professional accrediting body.
