Holistic Coach Certification Program Outline & Agreement

Holistic Coach Certification Program

Weekly Requirements:

1. Access module materials through the learning portal. Look over all materials. Come to our live sessions with questions or comments about each lesson. I love to be interactive with you, and we all learn from one another. Please know your questions and thoughts are welcomed. Content is dripped out weekly. Learning Portal Login: https://members.holisticcoachtraininginstitute.com. Should you have a problem with log-in, contact: [email protected]. Login and password are provided to you within days of signing up for the program. Check Spam Folders if you haven’t received it before reaching out to the support team. All content is also posted in the LinkedIn group for your convenience.

2. Practice skills, templates or coaching outline with your coaching partner for a total of 1 hour each week. You coach them for 30 minutes and they coach you for 30 minutes. Please respect people’s time and schedule sessions when convenient to both parties. I’ve provided you a tracking sheet so that you can start to accumulate hours. You will need to log 12 hours of you coaching someone else by the end of the program. You will be paired with someone in the class but can coach with other people, if you like. Best practices are to respect confidentiality, be dependable and be coachable.

3. Attend live sessions. When attending live, be sure to be present and available to coach, share and interact. My preference is that you are on camera. Class recordings will be posted within 48 hours in the LinkedIn group for 14 days and will then be taken down. These recordings are confidential and are not meant to be downloaded or shared with other people. If you do miss a class, watch the replay and share your learnings in our LinkedIn group.

4. Post in the LinkedIn Group. Posting in the online group is optional, but highly recommended as it gives you another place to be accountable and supported. Best use would be to share your biggest take-aways or learnings from each lesson so that you can ground and deepen your awareness as we move through all the Modules. Post as much as you want, this is your space to connect, to share, to celebrate together! Make sure feedback is positive, supportive and coaching in nature. This is a great place to practice your coaching skills by asking each other powerful questions.

This program is about helping you learn the basic ICF Core Competencies, Ethics and Standards of coaching while learning a holistic approach to coaching.

List of Lead Instructors:

Lead Instructor: Beverly Sartain, PCC
Sub Instructor: Richard Sartain, ACC
Mentor Coach and Sub Instructor: Gage Bock, PCC

Learning Philosophy:

We use a 3-pronged approach to learning that includes asynchronous and synchronous learning.

There are 3-steps implemented each week throughout the 6 month program to support you in learning and developing your coaching skill set.

Step 1: Each week there is a video lesson delivered via The Holistic Coach Training Institute Learning Portal. Each video lesson includes a printable worksheet to assist you with taking notes and brainstorming how you will apply the lesson to your own coaching.The learning portal is available 24/7 so the lessons can be viewed at your Convenience. Each Module takes about 30 minutes to review.

Step 2: Each week you will collaborate with a partner from the cohort to put the skills that you learned from the lesson into practice. You will meet with your partner over phone or video for one hour each week based on your individual schedules. Each partner practices being in the role of coach for 30 minutes then in the role of client for 30 minutes. You are encouraged to work with more than 1 person from the cohort, as well as work with people outside of the cohort.

Step 3: Each week we meet via ZOOM for a live 2.5 hour training where we review the weekly lesson, engage in a group discussion, answer questions, and listen to recorded coaching practice calls with live feedback. Listening to peers practice coaching and receive constructive feedback will support you in having new awareness and developing your own coaching skills.

Engaging the weekly video lessons with worksheets, coaching with a practice partner, and receiving live coach training is a comprehensive approach to learning and developing your coaching skills that will prepare you for greater long-term success with your coaching. There is also a private LinkedIn group created for each cohort where students can interact, network, share, receive course content, and get updates as a way to build community. LinkedIn groups are shut down 6 months after the cohorts are complete.

There are no additional fees or interest added to the payment plans. We use Stripe as our invoicing system. Payments are automatically debited each month.

Full refunds are issued if a notice to cancel is received within 3 days after initial payment is made. There are no refunds after 3 days from the time of initial payment.

We are happy to work with you on ensuring you receive the value of your investment. And if you are not getting what you need from the program (for any reason), give us the courtesy of a conversation so we can work through it together. If you are needing different support, let’s discuss your needs and course-correct, if needed. A student can leave the program at any time. If the student leaves the program, they will still be responsible to pay for services rendered.

Confidentiality:

If you share a recording in class then you need to have permission from the Coachee to share it. Anything shared in the live sessions will be kept confidential unless permission is provided. We may ask if we can use your recording for ICF accreditation purposes. The ICF requires programs to provide student recordings as an example of work being completed in the program. We will ask your permission if we would like to use your recording. We will be housing our group calls for ~ 2 weeks in our LinkedIn group so that people who may have missed class have an opportunity to view it. Then those recordings will be discarded.

If there is something you are curious about that is not included in this outline and agreement, feel free to ask. Remember that we are in a partnership together. Please communicate with us what’s going on for you. We don’t know what you don’t communicate so make sure to let us know what you need so we can work together to resolve your needs and make this the best experience possible.

Here’s to an incredible journey!

4. Healing happens in a loving and supportive environment not through judgment, shame or guilt.
5. Holistic coaching is about making changes from the inside out.
6. The overall goal of holistic coaching is to create well-being and fulfillment in all areas of life that are important to you.
7. Holistic coaching offers the opportunity for you to create love, safety and belonging for yourself.
8. Change, healing, transformation are a process not an event.

HCCP Students Learn To Coach The "Whole Person" Including The Mental, Emotional, Spiritual And Physical Levels

Mental emotional physical spiritual levels image.

(Provided in the Holistic Coach Certification Program)

M E N T A L
Resolving any unresolved issues in your consciousness

E M O T I O N A L
Accessing and acknowledging your emotions and energy

S P I R I T UA L
Connecting with a deeper sense of meaning through nature, beliefs or practices

P H Y S I CA L
Embodying a healthy and grounded body

The 4 levels of holistic well-being helps create greater awareness of "the whole person" which supports us inwardly aligning with our outer goals. Creating balance and well-being across all levels sets a stable foundation for us to work on realizing and actualizing our full potential.

 

The combination of inner and outer action is something that makes holistic coaching different from regular life coaching that tends to be more focused on outer action.

 

We consider:

  • What do we need to be thinking to reach our goal?
  • What do we need to be feeling to reach our goal?
  • What do we need to be experiencing spiritually to reach our goal?
  • What do we need to be doing physically to reach our goal?

 

Most people focus on one level versus a combination of levels that will support us in actualizing what we truly want.

"Do you believe that all people are capable of becoming their highest self? Do you value seeing people holistically--from the body, mind, spirit, and emotional planes? Do you believe in the power of partnership to co-create positive changes for yourself and others? If so and you are considering a becoming a credential-based, ethics-grounded coach, the HCCP is the pathway forward for you."

Dr. Anna Patton

Holistic Coach

"The Holistic Coach Certification Program has been expertly put together to give you the tools to get you started on your coaching career. Some of the highlights for me were that you get to do coaching practice with a partner which really helps you to develop your skills. The trainer also gives you valuable feedback on your coaching sessions which helps you to identify what to improve on. You're provided with useful scripts which give ready made frameworks for different coaching sessions. In the live sessions, the groups are not too big which makes it nice and intimate. The 6 month format also allows you to do your training whilst continuing with your day job. I would recommend this program to anyone wanting to start a coaching career. This course not only enabled me to become a better coach but also to work on my personal and professional growth. So I learnt a lot about coaching but also about myself."

Peter Greliak

Transformational Coach

"After one conversation with Beverly, I knew that coaching aligned very well with my desires. It has taken some time for me to fully grasp the magnitude of why Coaching is essential for my life, and who I’m assigned to reach, but thanks to Beverly Sartain, the illumination of those revelations are abundantly clear today. Beverly, a master of presence, has walked me through the hard stuff in order to help me see all the great stuff ahead. I am pleased to introduce myself, my name is Sommer Sade’, Your Champion Coach, boldly stepping into what is mine and empowering you to step into what’s yours. Beverly Sartain is a thinker, innovator, futurist, change agent and a partnership with her is a decision to challenge the status quo and to move the needle in your life towards your dreams, passions and destiny."

Sommer Sade’: Championed Life

"I was a new coach just starting out when I signed up for the Holistic Coach Certification Program with Bev. Although most don’t bother to get certified, it was important for me so that I was able to provide the most effective coaching space possible. This program fits the bill in two ways: It is ICF (International Coaching Federation) accredited. And, it covered core competencies, ethics, and standards in multiple learning modalities. I am now the Founder & Owner of Modern Alchemy Coaching, LLC where I co-create with those who are stuck in overwhelm in a thought provoking and creative process that inspires maximization of their personal and professional potential. Personally, I have found the most sacred relationships with Bev and peers of my cohort; where my love and respect were reflected back in equal measure. I celebrate the life I’ve built as a result of my learnings."

Connie Jackson

Modern Alchemy Coaching

"I joined the Holistic Coach Certification Program because challenging myself and learning from other disciplines outside my area of expertise is where the growth opportunities occur. Through this fantastic program I’ve received challenge, support and encouragement to consider the possibilities of where my coaching can go- even as a veteran coach. Though I’ve been career coaching for some time, I signed up for the Holistic Coach Certification Program to show up for myself so I can continue to show up for others. I feel like I’ve achieved that plus the wonderful, unexpected, bonus of gaining a coaching community I can celebrate my wins with and coach through my challenges in a loving and guided way. Thank you Beverly, Richard and everyone else who makes the Holistic Coaching Institute what it is! You’re doing life-changing work and those around you see it, feel and are touched by it."

Beyond Discovery Coaching

"Beverly is a trainer and coach of the highest integrity. I recently completed her certified holistic coach training. Not only did Beverly provide impactful training and highly relevant documentation to review and chart our progress, but she also proctored numerous opportunities to practice our coaching skills. I especially appreciated the ability to work throughout the program with a coaching partner. The feedback I received on my coaching competencies helped me approach coaching in a holistic way. I highly recommend connecting with Beverly as the BEST resource for coach certification that is also approved by the International Coaching Federation. This is not just education- this is hands-on application of concepts which can be used in numerous industries and niches, with employers or as a business owner."

I’m so impressed with Bev’s coaching philosophy and ability to hold space, coach, and lovingly help me identify my limiting beliefs. I’m so glad to have a role model like her in my business and life! It’s only about a month in, and I’m already experiencing massive shifts in my confidence and business. I wasn’t expecting that. Trust your gut. If it’s telling you to, do it. Almost everyone in my cohort has mentioned how they listened to their intuition, went for it, and are so glad they did. I’m one of those people, and I know this coaching program will be one of the reasons my business will be successful and impact countless people. My favorite part has been having a coaching partner & listening to others coach. It’s hands-on and very experiential!

This program helped me realize my full potential and my true passion in life which is helping others help themselves through a holistic approach.  This program not only teaches you but guides you through the coaching process and experience. Being coached was a different experience for me. It really allowed me to come out of my shell and it helped bring back my spirituality. Beverly has been nothing but supportive and patient."

Jennifer Henriquez

Coaching with Grace LLC

“Before I started the Holistic Coach Certification Program, I felt stuck, uncertain about my life, wondering if I would ever be able to start my own business. I dwelt in negativity and self-doubt. Since participating in the program, I am experiencing the enlightenment of growth in many areas of my life, such as self-worth, confidence, and love. This experience continues to influence ideas within me, to encompass the mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional wellbeing as one entity.”

Healing With Janice, PLLC

“Before I started Beverly's program, I couldn't even call myself a Coach. Now I proudly say, I'm a Spiritual Life Coach. I am serving my purpose as a Spiritual Life Coach because of Beverly Sartain and her Coaching Development program. She preaches what she practices. And, it was important to me to learn from someone who is also doing it so well. I had no idea I would learn as much as I have, and grow and evolve in ways I never thought possible. Beverly is always there for support and is a life-changing Coach and Mentor.”
