How can I gain a QQI Coaching Certification with this Course?

How does it work?


You can read more about the QQI Certification and how it is achieved by downloading our PDF brochure, but here is a quick synopsis:

  • We run this 3-day course alongside our 4-day QQI Management Coaching Course. From days 1 – 3 the course content is the same.

  • If you would like to continue to achieve certification, you will need to attend Day 4, immediately following Day 3.

  • On Day 4, you will complete the first part of the assessment work required to achieve QQI certification.

    This is a skills demonstration consisting of a 30 – 40 minute coaching session. This coaching session is filmed by your trainer as evidence of your assessment work.

  • Also on Day 4, your trainer will guide you through the QQI assessment brief. This helps you to begin preparing for the second part of your assessment work; two written assignments that must be completed in the 8 weeks following training.

  • Once you have completed our 4-day course and successfully passed your assessments, you will achieve a QQI Level 6 Award in Coaching Models of Practice. The award code is 6N3087.
