Curriculum:
This program is offered through independent study (although the student will have a mentor who will be available during the program) and there are three levels in this program; 1. Reading and Literature Review stage 2. Ideas Stage 3. Execution Stage
During Reading stage, the students have to read the study material (approximately 4-5 eBooks on Positive Psychology, Mindfulness and related areas) and make notes out of them. This usually takes from one month to 1.5 months. During Ideas stage, the student shares his/her ideas on the books read along with working with a mock client (who can even be a friend). This takes roughly a month or so.
At the Execution Stage, the student needs to get at least two clients, with whom at least four coaching sessions should happen (This may take around two months). The students will be provided coaching manuals and suggested coaching protocols before they start coaching the clients. When the program is completed, the client’s feedback will be taken by the mentor. This program includes weekly calls with the student mentor that gives immense value to the participants.
