Blended Study

 

We have developed our life coach training to make the best use of individual and group-based learning. plus you can study from the comfort of your own home. All our modules are delivered through this combination:

 

Group sessions

 

 

This is one of the aspects of our training which our students enjoy the most. Our group work sessions are structured and informative but also informal and fun. You will get direct tutor input on the topic of the session but will also get the opportunity to share your experiences, ask questions and learn from your peers. Our group-work sessions really bring our learning to life.

 

E-learning

 

 

You will be given access to all the course materials, exercises, reflections, pre-recorded session videos, quizzes, unit handbook and course guides via our online portal. You can choose to complete all your taught sessions via our pre-recorded portal sessions or combine them with our live sessions. Through complementing our group sessions with online learning, you have the opportunity to structure your studies to the learning style which suits you best.

 

One-to-one tutorials

 

For each unit you will also be given the opportunity to arrange a one-hour one-to-one session with your course tutor at a mutually convenient time. This session will help you work through the materials covered on a more personal level and also allow you to ask any questions you might not want to ask in the group setting. Many students also like to use this appointment to prepare for their assignment.

 

Assessment Strategy

 

The course has elements of both formative and summative assessment as we see assessment as part of the learning process.

 

Formative Assessment: Informal formative assessment will be undertaken and guided through the interaction during sessions and tutorials.

 

Summative Assessment: To gain the Level 5 Accredited Award you will need to complete a 2,000 (notional) word assignment to be completed at the end of the course. This essay is not graded with a traditional score as it is not intended to be an academic essay but a means of assessing whether you have processed and personalised an understanding and application of the course content.
