About the session

The Coaching Skills Lab offers an opportunity for each coach to work with coaching peers in a safe space and build confidence and competence.  

• Each session will be supervised by two accredited coaching supervisors 
• Using the coach/coachee/observer model, the participants will use the time to explore these roles, provide feedback and develop confidence 
• The supervisor(s) will be on hand to observe the participants whilst they practice and also provide supervision space to agree ways of working and a summative session, to enhance learning 
• The session will give participants an opportunity to re-build coaching networks and connections
