Coaching Level 1 (VTQ) Training Videos

In this first section we introduce you to your Coaching course, and explain how it works and what to expect. We then explain what coaching is, and what coaching is not.

In this section we talk about the importance of establishing a relationship during coaching and the skills and qualities required for a specific coaching role. We then look at how values, behaviours, attitudes and emotional awareness can impact on the coaching role. You will then learn about establishing ground rules, ethical and professional standards, and building the coaching relationship. In the final video of this section, we look at the benefits of coaching.

In this section you will learn about the impact of coaching on individual learning and development, as well as the legal requirements. We identify sources of support to deal with issues which are outside of our own expertise or authority, and talk about the environment for coaching. You will then learn about agreeing goals with clients, the coaching agreement and agreeing and maintaining records. Finally, we explain how to make changes to any coaching agreements you have made.

In this final section we show you what is it like to be coached. We then summarise the course, explain how the test works, and how you can review any part of the course before the test, as well as after you have passed.
