The Inclusion Coach Training Course is a 12-session training course covering advanced knowledge and proficiencies in the diversity and inclusion field. The program is designed for coaches who have completed the 1.0 training course and want to further enhance their coaching qualities by engaging in a specific area of focus.

  • Develop a theoretical and practical framework for making diversity and inclusion central to your coaching. 
  • Understand inclusion coaching in personal, professional, and business settings.

Course Format

The class will meet once a week for two hours, at your designated class time. Each class is broken into three main parts:

  1. Discussion: The first third of class includes an open discussion on the chapter you read to prepare for the course. Your trainer will answer questions and provide additional insight. 
  2. Demonstration: Your trainer will demonstrate how to use the tool or skill being discussed with a volunteer client from class. 
  3. Practice: The last portion of the class is reserved for practice time, and you will be broken into pairs to practice the coaching tool or skill with a classmate. This section concludes with a reflection.
