Your learning on this course will be a blend of:

• Block-delivery face-to-face sessions on campus
• Regular online sessions
• Where necessary – for example, if you’re unable to attend campus due to work commitments – interactive livestreamed campus-based sessions 

In addition to face-to-face and online contact, you’ll engage in significant self-directed study, supported by tutors and peer networks. An important feature of this course is that you’ll be expected to work in a relevant environment throughout your studies. This will provide an important context for your module assessments and help you to embed new skills and knowledge through ongoing professional practice.

If you start this course without a coaching role, for example if you are an international student, you’ll be offered support to find a coaching role within our networks. However, please be aware that it is your responsibility to take the lead in finding and confirming a role.

If you choose the 40-credit version of the Applied Coaching Project, you will be able to select one 20 credit option module in addition to the core modules. This is only recommended if you are studying part-time over two or three years with the option module to be taken in the second year of study.
