Systemic Team Coaching® Diploma

Our Masters-level Systemic Team Coaching Diploma programme enables experienced team coaches to become among the most highly qualified in the field today. This ICF-accredited team coaching training programme deepens and strengthens your team coaching practice by supporting you in applying your learning to a live client assignment.

“Systemic Team Coaching is an ongoing partnership – not a series of events – and the AoEC Systemic Team Coaching Diploma helps you learn how to partner with a complex team during a programme lasting 9-12 months. During that time, you set a process in place which leads to learning and coaching occurring with your client team even when you’re not there with them.”

Professor Peter Hawkins – AoEC Honorary President

“This course not only transformed my approach to coaching teams, it helped transform my business by breaking into an area I had long wanted to involve myself in.” 

“The programme is transformational; I am a different coach as a result. It’s offered me an opportunity to develop my practice at all levels; when working with individuals, teams and organisations. It allowed me to bring together my life experience, previous training and development, as well as the learning during the programme, to create my signature approach. The faculty and participants were generous with their time and created a safe, but challenging, place to learn and grow as a systemic team coach practitioner. Highly recommended.”
