Who we are

Established in 1999, The Coaching Academy is the largest life coaching course provider of its kind in the world and we are incredibly proud of the reputation we've developed since opening our doors 24 years ago. As well as life coaching, we also provide courses to enable our coaches to establish their own training niche, by that NLP, business and corporate coaching, or coaching parents and children.

We started when life coaching was a relatively new phenomenon and were one of the first in the UK to provide fully accredited life coaching qualifications. Now we find ourselves at the forefront of coach training and are chosen by more people looking to be a professional life coach than any other UK training provider.
