The purpose of the session is to demonstrate (1) your ability to hold a clean, professional coaching conversation that includes each step in the coaching arc, and (2) your ability to debrief the conversation with a focus on the learner during the course.
Preparation: Your accreditor will use The Coaching Demonstration Rubric to evaluate the demonstration. Included in the rubric are some best practices and tips to help you prepare. We have also created a series of videos on each of the main areas. We also recommend practicing prior to the session.
Important: Please bring a peer to the session to serve as your coaching client. This person should bring a real scenario they are experiencing to receive coaching on. Role play conversations will not pass. We will start with some introductions and setting expectations, followed by the 10-minute demonstration. The coaching client will be dismissed at the conclusion of the 10-min demonstration. The accreditor will then lead you through a debrief of the conversation, any feedback, and a discussion on how you will facilitate the learning during the course.
Sessions are held in English; if you prefer the coaching demo in a language other than English, please reach out to team@ica-certified.com for further details.
