The first step in becoming a Certified Wellcoach®
Our classes provide you with the essential theories of coaching science and application of skills coaching, based on our Coaching Psychology Manual (required text; ebook recommended). The Manual is the foundation of our program, a primary study tool to become a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach, and is widely used as the text for several coach training programs as well as academic courses, including a Science of Coaching Psychology Course at Harvard University Extension School. Check out the research based on our coaching model.
In addition to participating in live classes, you will receive our 10-hour coaching habits e-course.
How long will it take to become Certified?
Here is a sample timeline for completing all the Modules required to become a Certified Wellcoach®, which starts at the conclusion of Module 1 training regardless of whether you have chosen the 4-day, 4-week or 9-week option.
Keep in mind that 4-Day/4-Week cohorts require 15-20 hours of course pre-work (i.e., reading the manual, listening to coaching demos, and reading articles) before you begin the training.
Having completed all requirements for Module 1 Core Coach Training:
Months 1 + 2: Complete Module 2 by participating in five-2-hour live virtual classes, two e-courses, and completing feedback surveys and knowledge assessments.
Month 3: Begin Module 3 by completing three, 1-hour mentoring sessions and begin work with practice client(s).
Months 4 + 5: Complete Module 3 by submitting Well-being Visions and Goals (for you and one client) and passing the written and oral exams.
Months 6 + 7: Receive your “Certified Wellcoach®” designation and start conducting the 50 coaching sessions needed to apply for the NBHWC exam.
Month 8: Complete Module 4, “Lifestyle Medicine for Coaches”, assessments and feedback surveys. Receive your “Lifestyle Medicine Coach” certificate.
If you wish to, you may then apply to take the National exam, through National Board for Health and Wellness Coaching after completing all four modules and you have practiced with your own clients for 50 coaching sessions.
