Emerging Coaches Connects 

Our emerging coaches connects are open to all coaches (new & returning) who are keen to gain some new ideas, cement previous learnings & make connections with other like minded individuals within our community. We run our programmes as a cohort so you can work alongside others in the same position as yourself to grow your capability and confidence in coaching.
