This is the fourth component of the Certificate Program. Anyone who has completed Moving Towards Artful Coaching is eligible to enroll. Students may apply after completing The Coaching Conversation in the Context of Work, if they meet certain requirements and as long as they attend Moving Towards Artful Coaching within the first third of their Practicum Period.
Practicum is an intense and powerful learning process when you deepen your coaching competence through the integration of the following learning elements: supervision and feedback of your coaching; participation in Learning Labs (where client cases are reviewed, further exploration of coaching concepts occurs and deepened learning learning through interaction with fellow students); coaching clients (a minimum of 40 hours) and reflecting intentionally on your learning from the coaching experience; being coached by an approved coach (not included in the Practicum fee); engaging with assignments and additional readings. You will also increase your understanding of the Adler model and Adler Guiding Principles, gaining a deeper awareness of how the model and principles work together to frame the coaching process and experience.
Practicum spans approximately 7 months from enrolment through to completion. During these seven months students must be actively engaged in the the process of coaching and the learning elements weekly in order to move through the requirements successfully. Students are only eligible to sit for the certification exam once they have completed all the requirements of Practicum AND have accumulated a minimum of 100 coaching hours with clients.
Practicum is offered in a face-to-face format, meaning that Learning Labs are done in person at the Adler School (4 hours in duration), while supervision and feedback are done in a virtual format on the phone (2 hours duration). Virtual formats are offered based on demand (usually about once per year). Face-to-face formats are scheduled regularly. Students enrol with a cohort of students, and are assigned a Lab Leader as well as supervisors who work with them through the 7 month process. Because the cohort of students goes through the 7 month process together, their learning is enhanced through ongoing peer and faculty support. Practicum group size is 8-12 students per group.
