When can I start?
Enrol whenever it suits you. You'll receive your programme material within a few days. Then study and complete the practical training in your own time and at your own pace.
As we said, this is a life coaching course with a difference!
How long does the Programme take?
New Insights life coach training, though comprehensive, is built around your needs, not ours. It's completely flexible to meet your lifestyle.
We cater for both 'hares' and 'tortoises'!
As a guide, we recommend that you allow 9 to 15 months to complete certification if you can allocate roughly 3-5 hours of your time each week.
This is not a fly-by-night course.
This is a comprehensive training programme designed to build your self awareness, knowledge, skills, experience and confidence to the point where you are completely ready to coach professionally and make a success of it.
In our experience, it is well worth investing the time to do exactly that.
Can I take as long as I like?
No, this is not an open-ended life coaching course.
This is a professional, accredited certification training programme and, as such, we place a cap on the time available to you at 24 months from the date you first enrol.
What is the 'Coaching System' that you refer to?
A unique feature of this programme – and part of what makes it far more than a standard life coaching course – is the inclusion of a high quality, structured coaching system for you to use during your practice coaching and, once you gain certification, for paid coaching purposes.
The System comprises thirteen coaching sessions which are generally administered over a six month period and during which you will take your client from life reflection and goal setting right through to uncovering life purpose, celebration of his/her achievements and goal setting for the longer-term.
The New Insights Life Coaching System, though carefully structured, is
sufficiently flexible to allow you to tailor the programme for different
clients and target markets – and to suit your level of experience.
This is a system that really works.
Many hundreds of testimonials from clients all over the world can support that claim. And you'll have complete access to every aspect of the system!
What support do you offer?
We pride ourselves on being able to offer friendly, caring and timely support to our Trainee Life Coaches.
You'll notice we use the word 'Trainees' and not 'Students'. That's because the New Insights life coaching course stresses the importance of really practical, hands-on experiential learning and development – much more than just academic study.
Here's some of what you can look forward to:
Courier delivery of your life coaching programme material to SA destinations, shipped within 3 working days of receipt of your order and payment.
A Personal Coaching Session with a certified New Insights coach to help you fast track your training or build early momentum for your budding practice.
With the PRO option, a personal Supervisor/Mentor coach assigned to you to guide and support you through your training experience.
Full member access to the Customer Resources section of the New Insights Africa website where numerous electronic resources including coaching session notes and client feedback forms are conveniently housed for trainees and coaches.
Access to The Forum, a powerful online networking facility where our Coaches and Trainees can Share, Grow and Learn by posting questions, suggestions, comments and advice in one of many relevant sub forums, each of which is convened by a certified coach.
Client membership to our leading edge Online Journalling Platform for as long as you like, with the option to upgrade to coach member status (and a host of additional benefits) at any time.
Ongoing eMail and Telephone Support for as long as you are in training with us and a paid up participant in the life coaching course.
Free subscription to Life Coaching Insights, an inspiring and informative blog for coaches and trainee coaches that is updated on a weekly basis with notifications sent to your email box.
Opportunities to Network with other New Insights trainees and coaches, either informally or through teleconferences.
Full Certification Support including self-test assignment reviews, review of practice client feedback, exam marking, supervision & coaching (PRO course option), coaching competency assessment (PRO option) and the delivery of a professional looking Certificate of Completion (CLASSIC) or Competence (PRO) once you've successfully completed all the requirements.
You refer to CLASSIC and PRO options above. How do these differ?
Essentially the PRO option is for trainees who want to add another dimension to their experience, by being coached by one of our top coaches while they are training to become a coach.
The PRO option also includes a more sophisticated means of competency assessment and will result in the award of a Certificate of Competency as opposed to a Certificate of Completion.
In all other aspects, including the material supplied, the two options are the same.

What certificate do you offer?
