Coach Training

In 2002, ADLER’s Certificate in Professional Coaching was the first program in Canada to be accredited by the International Coaching Federation (ICF). Our coach training offerings have since expanded to train thousands of learners across the globe with both in-house deliveries and private coach training offerings that address both the art and science of the coaching practitioner.

The ADLER Approach

The curriculum for our coach training program is grounded in the coaching competencies of the ICF. Great care has been taken to achieve a balance between conceptual and experiential learning modes. Our Coach-Instructors are valued for their highly interactive and engaging teaching, with emphasis on practice and practical application. Our coaching training program is offered in English and Turkish. Our training incorporates discrete coaching skills and behaviours that support positive interpersonal interactions in a number of areas, such as: 

  • learning and skill development
  • creating new relationships 
  • improving overall performance 
  • dealing with challenging work situations/conflicts 
  • deep listening
  • acknowledgment
