ILM Level 5 Certificate in Effective Coaching & Mentoring

This is a powerhouse of a qualification and will set you up with the knowledge and skills you need to embark on your journey as a coach or mentor, either within your organisation or as a self-employed coach working with businesses.

There are 3 mandatory assignments:

1. Understanding the Skills, Principles and Practice of Effective Coaching and Mentoring within an Organisational Context.
2. Undertaking Effective Coaching and Mentoring within an Organisational Context.
3. Reviewing your own ability as a Coach and Mentor within an Organisational Context.

The first assignment is focused on building your knowledge around key skills, concepts and principles. You will achieve this via a written assignment and is the focus of the first 3 in-person days.  At the end of those 3-days you will be ready to complete the first draft of your written assignment and start your coaching practice.

The second assignment is focused on your coaching practice hours.  You will need to complete 18 hours coaching and or mentoring – supporting 3 people in management roles within an organisation.  You will write up coaching diaries and reflective journals to provide evidence for your second assignment.

The third assignment provides an opportunity to reflect on the knowledge, skills and practice that you have developed over the course of the programme.  You can complete this via a written assignment or via a recorded discussion with one of our Assessors.
