The Meta-Coach Training System® is a powerful coaching methodology that transcends traditional Performance Coaching, taking Coach and client to higher levels - to Developmental and Transformational Coaching. That is why we call it ‘meta’ meaning a higher level. At these levels profound change occurs naturally and easily. The result is success and transformation.

Meta-Coach Training is an accelerated coach training system that supports participants to move through learning modules, at their own speed and pace, to culminate in Master Coach status. It is taught in environments that gives participants every opportunity to excel - as Executive, Personal (Life), Organizational and Self Coaches.

A masterful Coach will have theoretical knowledge and advanced skill in six crucial processes such as: communicating, working with the layers of reflexive awareness, facilitating change, working to implement action steps to make the change real and lasting, working systemically with a system, the human mind-body system, and working to actualize a person’s potentials, talents, passions, and visions. Because of this the Meta-Coach Training System draws on the Cognitive Sciences of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Neuro-Semantics (NS), and integrates them into cutting-edge coaching psychology. Meta-Coaching equips participants to use the following six leading edge coaching models:

Communication − The NLP Communication Model
Reflexivity − The Meta-States Model
Change − The Axes of Change Model
Implementation − The Benchmarking Model
Systems − The Matrix Model
Self-Actualization − The NS Self-Actualization Model

This comprehensive program differentiates itself from other coaching education by integrating three key areas of a successful coaching career:
» Your Self - for personal development and self-actualization
» Your Coaching Skills - for advanced and tested skill competency
» Your Coaching Business - for sustainable financial success

Being the most advanced training system in the world, the modular structure allows you to process through units or levels of accreditation right up to the level of Master Meta-Coach at a pace that suits you and your lifestyle. It allows you to complete modules of learning that are immediately relevant to your life, skills and/or business. These modules include:

Module 1 - Coaching Essentials™
Module 2 - Coaching Genius™
Module 3 - Associate Certified Meta-Coach (ACMC)

Training, testing and assessment are rigorously benchmarked and assessed against the international standards of the Meta-Coach Foundation (MCF).

You’ll find how to integrate training, consulting, counseling and mentoring in a truly congruent life path.

YOUR COACHING SKILLS AND MASTERY

You’ll gain credibility and confidence from a thorough grounding in the most advanced cognitive behavioral coaching models in the field including:

The Axes of Change Model
As the very first non-therapeutic model for facilitating change in the field of Coaching, the Axes of Change Model is becoming recognized by many academic institutions as the most cutting edge development in the field to date. Developed by Hall and Duval in 2003, based on Self-Actualizing premises and the naturally occurring change process of healthy people, this simple yet revolutionary model gives you as a Coach 9 integral skills for Coaching change and 9 critical roles to play as a change agent.

The Neuro-Semantic Benchmarking Model
Where is your client in their process of change? How do you know? How much more skill development do you need before you will have the coaching skills of a Master? By what criteria are you measuring this? What is your benchmark for success? The NS model for benchmarking your skill development accelerates your learning, seeking to close the elusive knowing-doing-gap. This exhilarating model puts your theory to the test, by demonstrating what you can actually do - initially against 7 Core Coaching Skills and ultimately against 26 Coaching Skills. Through being benchmarked yourself you learn the art and science of shaping performance through benchmarking.

The unique Matrix Model
This revolutionary model for mapping human functioning brings together all the very best from the fields of Systems, NLP and NS into one comprehensive model. Initially developed by Dr. Hall in 2001 for working with the mind-body-emotion systems of humans this model has also become a critical model for working within organizational, family, and cultural systems. This model finally gives the new and experienced Coach a model for facilitating systemic change - using psychological premises and specific NLP and NS change patterns for knowing precisely what to do when.

The Neuro-Semantics Self-Actualization Models
There are three NS self-actualization models: the NS Self-Actualization model specifies the theoretical frameworks of the concept of self-actualizing (making actual one’s potentials by mobilizing resources), the Marix of self-actualization, and the Self-Actualization Quadrants. These models detail the definition, meaning, components, and processes of actualizing one’s best possibilities. In the context of coaching, these models actualize the best visions in the human potential movement by Maslow, Rogers, Carl, and others by giving practical processes.
