Workplace Career
Coaching Skills
Certification Masterclass

Many employees don’t leave because they want a different job. Often, they leave because they can’t see a future where they are and no one ever sat down with them to talk it through.

Career conversations should help people discover opportunities, clarify aspirations and plan real development. In practice, many managers and HR professionals lack the confidence, structure or tools to guide those conversations towards meaningful development outcomes so it stays at the level of a performance review checkbox, and the real conversation never happens.

This certification equips you to lead career conversations that actually go somewhere, helping employees and coaching clients gain greater clarity about their strengths, aspirations and development goals.

Why this programme

• Built specifically for workplace and organisational settings, not generic life or executive coaching.
• Integrates psychometric profiling assessments to provide a structured foundation for career coaching conversations.
• Links career coaching to talent development and engagement strategy, not just the individual conversation.
• Curriculum designed by Dr. Constance J. Pritchard, a recognised NCDA Fellow and Master Trainer in career development.
