BUSINESS COACHING AND MENTORING - ILM RECOGNISED COURSE

Coaching and mentoring are essential skills for leaders and managers to help others achieve their potential.
They allow them to positively influence, inspire action and motivate teams and clients towards their goals.
Coaching and mentoring are also life skills. You will undoubtedly see a benefit in all walks of life and career by adding coaching and mentoring skills to your skillset.
Our Business Coaching and Mentoring - ILM Recognised course is a brilliant way to get started in business coaching and mentoring.
It will provide you with the knowledge, practical tools and techniques needed to deliver effective business coaching and mentoring.
It is a crucial first step for businesses looking to meet the growing demand for coaching and mentoring in the workplace and the value employees place on learning and development. Employees want to feel valued, and there is a ‘war on talent’.
At the same time, how we work continues to rapidly evolve with the development of new technology and the continued prominence of hybrid working.
But this course is not just for businesses.
It is also ideal for individuals looking to get involved in coaching and consultancy and comes at a time when demand for coaches is soaring. LinkedIn statistics show there was more than a 2,000 per cent increase in searches for ‘business coach’ between 2020 and 2021 and a 1,000 per cent increase in searches for ‘executive coach’.
During this course, you will learn:
- The four pivotal coaching skills you need to focus on
- The tools and models that underpin great coaching
- Where and when you should coach
- How to develop a coaching culture
- The difference between coaching and mentoring – and why it matters
- How to build and develop your bank of coaching questions
SHOULD I DO AN ILM LEVEL 5 QUALIFICATION INSTEAD?
It depends on what you need from the training. Do you need formal accreditation? Or are you just seeking the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed to develop your coaching career?
If you want to become a member of a governing body, the ILM Level 5 Diploma or Certificate options will be better for you. Both will take longer as you must complete assignments and coaching or mentoring hours. Please click here for more information on our ILM Level 5 coaching qualifications.
To achieve the recognised status this course offers, you need to complete the training and the open book test. ‘Open book’ means you can use your notes and the course resources to complete the test.
