Our Emotion Coaching training model operates via a cascading approach. The aim of this is to develop training and practice that is able to be sustained locally. Our experience suggests that Emotion Coaching is best delivered and supported by people who work in the communities in which the training takes place. This promotes adoption of the practice and systemic implementation.

​

Our cascading training framework starts with identifying people who are interested in taking a lead in Emotion Coaching in their organisation. These people attend our two-day core training and both follow-up workshops.  These trainings are held at least twice a term and delivered online. Those wanting to become accredited EC UK Practitioner Trainers will be required to attend a 'pre-application seminar' (held 3 times per year at no additional cost) to assist with their application and deepen their understanding of Emotion Coaching. Participants will also receive a Practitioner Trainee Support Pack to support their application. The process for all of this takes about 6 months. Accreditation costs £150 for the first year dropping to £80, then £75 in subsequent years.

​

Once accredited, Practitioner Trainers receive a range of training materials, logos to use at their discretion, and a listing on our website. They also have free access to an annual Practitioner Trainer Learning Day, and support within our Emotion Coaching community of practitioner trainers from around the UK (and internationally). 

The Emotion Coaching leads for the locality plan, deliver training and support the use of Emotion Coaching in their local context.  Emotion Coaching UK are able to offer support to these local leads.
