How to 'be' a Coach Supervisor: A Certificate in Executive Coaching Supervision
Explore dimensions of coaching supervision, and learn how to model good supervisory practice, with this three-day, accredited, introductory programme.
All three days of the executive coaching programme will be run virtually. It is hoped that subsequent programmes will run face to face for days one and two with the third day delivered virtually.
What you will learn
On this programme you will be introduced to the AoEC supervision competencies of ethical maturity, systemic thinking, relational presence, and objective calibration, and consider how these competencies are embedded within the supervisory role.
You will learn about the nature of supervision and the role of the coach supervisor; reflect on your own ‘psychological systems’ and how these influence your approach; consider systemic perspectives and the power of relationship; explore different approaches to 1:1 supervision; and gain insights into group supervision interventions.
Each of the three days will be underpinned by practice sessions, evaluation, and feedback to support your development of supervision skills.
On completing this programme you will have a better understanding of what it means to ‘be’ a supervisor, how each of the supervision competencies and your personal systems inform your own practice, and how you bring value to your coach supervisees.
AoEC Supervision Competencies
How you learn
This creative and experiential programme blends theory, practice, reflection, and demonstration to introduce you to concepts, models, and approaches appropriate for the supervision setting. Small group practice sessions are scheduled for each day of the course, and you will rotate through the roles of supervisor, supervisee, and observer.
The programme runs on a 2 + 1 model: day one and day two are consecutive, and you have a period of practice and self-reflection before day three. You are encouraged to take on a minimum of two clients for the purposes of this programme, and to schedule practice supervision sessions between days two and three.
Accreditation
This is a certificate level programme in executive coaching supervision; on completion you will receive a certificate of attendance from the AoEC.
How to ‘be’ a Coach Supervisor is accredited with the International Coaching Federation (ICF) for 21 CCEUs (Continuing Coach Education Units) - 17 Core Competencies and 4 Resource Development.
