Requirements for long-term development of coaching practice:

•to reflect his/her coaching practice on a relevant knowledge base

•to get the ability of lifelong learning



Road to coaching competence

Central question:

How can we organize formal education programs enabling coaches to develop/enhance competencies for their job?



Road to coaching competence – starting points

•

Coaching is complex

•

Coaches need a special expertise (competencies)

•

Competence can not be taught directly,

competence has to be developed in activity

•

Competence occurs by linking to practical experiences

•

It is necessary to gain many years of experience in order to become an expert coach

Consequence: a specific didactical-methodical approach
