Our program is compliant to both ICF (CCEUs) and EMCC (ESQA) standards

An on-line process: immediate practice to integrate the competencies

Open to the world, the programme consists of: webinars, demonstrations, peer practice, observed practice,… You will have your own tutor to make sure that you feel at ease with the process and the content. You will be invited to pursue your practice as supervisor with your first own client and to have your own supervisor (outside of the programme). And you will be invited to self-reflect and journal your supervision experiences. All this will count towards your certification with us (and for your accreditation with the EMCC).

Why us?

The supervisor training course by the Academy of Coaching Supervision & Mentoring is based on best practices in professional supervision.

Once the course is completed and validation (certification) is successful, you are ready for the next and final stage of acquiring the internationally recognized supervisor status which consists of EMCC accreditation (the only internationally recognised organization uniting coaches, mentors and supervisors that has clear and developed competencies for accrediting supervisors).

 

In the course of the training programme (7 modules), you will work directly with the programme creators, Sylviane Cannio, Cheryl Cooper and Ludmila Kostandova. Fran Fisher has created a special programme for mentoring with the new ICF competencies. All are experienced professional coaches. Fran and Sylviane are pioneers of coaching in their respective countries (USA and Belgium) and have developed a global practice; they also were the creators of internationally known coaching schools. Cheryl, from the UK, has a strong background as executive coach, supervisor, trainer and assessor with over 25 years of coaching experience; she is currently supervising internal coaches in the European Union Institutions. And Ludmilla, with almost 25 years’ experience in serving executive teams, has in-depth experience in coaching, mentoring and supervision, and specialises in supporting leaders who are undergoing complex organisational transitions. Together, they form a strong team of expert trainers at your disposal. 

Our goal is to give you the opportunity to shape your individual style of work as coach supervisor.

In terms of the methodology, the programme is based on the systemic ontological approach including the psychodynamic perspective (in-depth outworking of transferential relations, individual and collective defence mechanisms, parallel processes in dyads of a supervisor and supervisee as well as in groups), and both individual and group reflective practices between the modules.

Last but not least, as soon as you obtain your certification with us, you may appear on the list of the global supervisors on the ACSM website. Good news for you!
