Growth business thumbs up

In the US, life coaching is currently a $1bn industry and is growing rapidly. 

In South Africa, and elsewhere in Africa, life coaching is an emerging profession that is also beginning to see explosive growth. Ordinary people are awakening to the power and effectiveness of life coaching in improving their lives and prospects.

Unlike so many other careers, life coaching is extremely meaningful and rewarding.

Life coaches use a wide range of simple, yet incredibly powerful personal development tools, and techniques, to help their clients overcome perceived obstacles and turn aspirations, desires, and dreams into reality.

If you love working with people, have an ethical disposition and a mind that is open to learning more about how you and other people tick, you have all the ingredients you need to take advantage of this trend and become a respected life coach.

Our acclaimed life coach training and certification programme will provide everything else you need.

So, at New Insights, our focus is on training and equipping coaches who can deliver consistently positive and meaningful results for their clients.

Our Success is Your Success ... and Your Success is Our Success!

How's that for a WIN-WIN relationship?

TRAINING THAT PRIORITISES YOU

Heart thumbs up

It is essential for anyone wanting to become a successful life coach to invest in high quality life coach training and certification.

There's a lot more to becoming a great life coach than most realise. Life coaching is often misunderstood to be some form of mentoring, advice giving or light touch counselling.

But nothing could be further from the truth. Life coaches are more accurately described as facilitators. They require broad-spectrum training and exposure to a wide range of skills, tools, techniques and methods.

As life coaching is an unregulated profession, the institutes and the type of life coach training they offer, differ markedly in quality, substance and, of course, fees!

At New Insights, our priority is you and your ultimate success as a life coach. We will never compromise on quality and comprehensiveness of our training. That said, our programme has been designed to provide the flexibility to suit your lifestyle. You can enrol whenever it suits you and you can study and practice in your own time and at your own pace.

Our training is not the cheapest on the market but it is very far from being the most expensive. In short, we go to some lengths to ensure that what we offer represents great value for what you get!

TRAINING WITH ACCESS TO A UNIQUE LIFE COACHING SYSTEM THAT'S PROVEN TO TRANSFORM LIVES ...

Life Coaching System v5

Some training institutes believe their job is done once they've imparted some theory and a bit of classroom practice.

At New Insights we go well beyond that. Our Life Coach Training and Certification Programme includes access to the well-researched and cleverly structured New Insights Life Coaching System for practice coaching purposes. 

Based on New Insights' proprietary coaching model, this tried, tested and trusted transformational coaching system comprises 15 sessions that span everything from an eye-opening session on life appraisal to an emotive session on finding one's life purpose. 

An extensive set of beautifully designed coaching and client notes is made available for practice coaching purposes and can, optionally, be licensed for professional coaching use after certification.

Our life coach training also includes exposure to free-form coaching using one of the common, generic coaching models that exist in the market.

Our trained coaches therefore gain the flexibility to offer their clients transformational coaching that is more structured and of longer duration, OR short-term, needs based coaching, that is more transactional in nature.
