Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to become a coach for writers and professionals in the literature sector. This course was piloted last year to great acclaim. Many writers who have also been tutors and facilitators in their working lives are looking to extend their range of opportunities for earning a living. The new field of coaching on a one to one basis is ideal for experienced writers who enjoy working with other colleagues in the field, enabling them to flourish in their writing careers. This training package will also be suitable for those working in a further or higher educational settings to enhance work with students on an individual basis.

Feedback from last year’s course:

Excellent and inspiring

I feel as though I have been given a master key to open and move through the many doors in my life. 

The trainers were open and constructive and worked with the group in partnership.  They gave practical examples to exemplify the work based on their considerable and successful coaching experience.
