CHRISTIAN COACH TRAINING PROGRAMS

When I researched and wrote The Complete Guide to Christian Coach Training, I started - just as a prospective student would - by looking online to identify viable programs.  I also asked leaders in the field of Christian coaching to submit names of programs and to confirm my list.  I then asked each program to review and confirm a basic orthodox definition of Christianity and a basic definition of classic, professional coaching.   The following schools were then asked to submit information on their programs, resulting in profiles of each school included in the first edition of my new ebook.  The Complete Guide to Christian Coach Training (December 2008) - available at www.mychristiancoachtraining.com.

The easiest way to evaluate these programs and ultimately make the choice that’s right for you is to purchase the ebook.  The research is already done for you.  You’ll have profiles of each of these programs in one convenient resource.  The investment is only $19.  For more information to purchase, click here.
