As a coaching community, we all agree that what we're focusing on is our choice. Here at The Coaching Academy, we're focusing on showing up for our community, supporting those in need and upskilling in a changing climate, starting with a special message from The Coaching Academy's CEO, Bev James.
A message from our CEO, Bev James
In these extraordinary times, I feel even more grateful for our wonderful Coaching Academy family. Rest assured, we will continue to nurture, support and connect with our community online, to help inspire, educate and grow.
Community is at the heart of TCA , and we strongly believe that kindness and unity can potentially be more contagious than any virus. Coaches have valuable skills that the world needs right now. We can help people navigate uncertainty and manage change not to mention helping with relationships in trying times.
Together we can make a difference to our community and our world.
Let’s use the Superpower that is coaching to step up, unite and pull together for the greater good.
I hope to virtually see you soon, Bev

Our wonderful community of students is connected on Facebook and we’re grateful to see mutual support, uplifting messages and mutual accountability.

Other questions you might have….
1. When will Accelerator Days be back?
The health and safety of our students is our number one priority and to adhere with the advice of the Government and Health Authorities, we have decided to postpone the April Accelerator Days and any future Accelerator Days until further notice and we continue to monitor the situation across the UK. And we have wonderful news for you! We are currently working on tools and resources instead of these live training to support you in this period. Stay tuned for more information.
2. What can you do instead of attending live training to further your studies?
We welcome you to work through the workbooks, book your webinars as well as plan for mentoring sessions and practical assessments. Additionally, read around topics of interest, watch online videos and recorded webinars and tune in to Facebook live videos to connect with TCA and the community. Most importantly, we recommend you take this time to coach people during these challenging times on topics like resilience and change.
3. What support is currently available to assist you with your coaching diploma?
We are currently talking to our mentors and assessors to support you in your studies.
