SHORT ON TIME?
Don’t worry – our workshops are designed to pack in maximum value, without going on for hours! With your chance to ask questions. Typically they last 40 - 45 minutes.
WANT TO KEEP IT PRIVATE?
We’re passionate about community & it's something our students regularly share as an unexpected bonus of the training. For these sessions we don't have camera access and you can ask questions anonymously. We don't have break out rooms or cameras on in these sessions as we've not had time to contract as a group :this also means we can share the recordings.
CAN’T MAKE IT LIVE?
No problem… save your seat now & we’ll email you the recordings, so you can catch up whenever you’re ready!

WHAT IS EVIDENCE-BASED COACHING?
Coaching is client driven and non-directive. It focuses on improving performance and developing an individual in whichever area of their life, business or career they want to focus on.
By applying evidence-based coaching techniques, a coach can help drive lasting changes in their client's behaviour and embed new habits. This in turn allows the client to move forward in specific areas of their lives, in powerful new ways (and is a huge part of what makes working as a coach so rewarding!).
We integrate research into our training and combine it with developing practical skills so you know that what we teach works.
WHO ARE THESE
WORKSHOPS FOR?
Coaching Curious
If you think coaching could be the career for you, but you'd like more insights into coaching and how it works, you’ll leave Coaching Experience Week feeling SO much clearer. Or if you're set on developing coaching skills to help you in your business or career & are searching for first-rate training to give you the expertise you need, this is 100% for you.
Become A Better Coach
Perhaps you have some coaching experience, but you want to deepen your knowledge. Coaching Experience Week will help you become more effective and send your success levels soaring, with evidence-based strategies that produce powerful outcomes for your clients!
Why Is Working With The Whole Person Important?
"It gives you flexibility as a coach, knowing you can adapt what you offer, based on the client in front of you. Research into coaching effectiveness has also found that flexibility is one of the qualities of great coaches helping them to support clients as an individual.
By putting your clients at the heart of the coaching relationship we believe you can have more transformational conversations and build deeper levels of trust (and rapport).
For me, these methods have transformed how I coach and the way we train our students at Optimus Coach Academy”
Ruth Kudzi, MCC Master Coach, CEO of Optimus Coach Academy
