The evening starts with a short presentation, then we’re open for any group questions you may have and we finish with tea and coffee. We stay on afterwards for any individual questions. The whole evening should last for around an hour, depending on the number of questions people have. If you can only stay for a short while though, you’re free to go whenever you like.

The Dublin Open Evening is on Tuesday 31st January, starting at 7pm at our new offices at 12 Merrion Square in Dublin.

Positive Success Group (PSG) have  been there from early on and are still as passionate and dedicated to life coaching touching every corner of Ireland.   One of the benefits and privileges of life coaching in Ireland is that the people we meet and work with are so rich with life experiences to learn from.

The history and culture of Ireland has resulted in people who have a desire to develop more and more.  There has been no time to be stagnant – there has been constant change and challenge.  Part of what life coaching brings to Ireland is new knowledge with new techniques to bring control back to the individual and who can then take ownership for their own actions and their own future.

The most common piece of feedback we hear in Ireland when doing life coaching is “ I wish I had learnt this sooner, things would have been easier”.

If being in control of your life is something you want – choose a life coaching program and advance your learning now.

When working with a coach on a life coaching program, what happens to you?

YOU create a clear picture of WHO you are and WHERE you want to be

YOU have clarity on what your strengths, abilities and natural gifts are

YOU set clear and defined goals that are more exactly what YOU want and reach them

YOU set up invaluable systems and identify resources to make your life easier and more fulfilling

YOU establish regular habits to support you for the rest of your life

YOU become pro-active – taking the initiative, not waiting for things to happen to you

YOU develop a strong sense of personal integrity and live up to it

YOU improve your communication and relating skills to attract and maintain more enriching, synergetic relationships

YOU release pressure by seeing things in perspective

Some topics that are covered on life coaching programs:-

• Personal Development & Success

TOP TIP: When choosing a life coach to do a life coaching program with – make sure they are accredited and fully insured

All the courses in life coaching are facilitated by active coaches who have years of experience in coaching CEO’s, senior managers, directors, employees, students, parents, teachers, groups, teams and organisations.

What one of the students who completed one of our courses in Ife coaching said

“ It was a privilege to have participated and work with the PSG team.  I  have found all their courses in life coaching challenging and life enhancing”  Eoin -  company director

Having designed and delivered hundreds of Life Coaching Training I know there are lots of valid reasons why people choose Life Coaching Training.  One of the things you want to do is to understand your reason for wanting the training in the first place.

In other words know your motivation for choosing Life Coaching Training

One of the main reasons is for a Change of Career

If your main motivation is to change career – be your own boss and or to make tonnes of money – be realistic and be prepared for the hard work.   You can of course make money from life coaching.  What you need to be asking yourself is do you have the  time,  support and perseverance necessary to build your sustainable client base while still supporting yourself financially.   If you do – great, if not you may want to find something else that brings in an income while you are building your business

Coaching is hugely rewarding and fulfilling as a career especially if the motivation for doing it is in line with your purpose as an individual.   If you are motivated by facilitating people be aware of their strength, understand how they operate and help them be effective during change then Life Coaching Training is definitely worthwhile doing.

There are two ways to obtain a Life Coaching Certificate.  Enrol in a class room style OR choose an online coaching certification.  The class room style certification tends to focus on practitioner skills whilst the online coaching certification tends to focus on lifestyle and life strategies coaching.
Both Life coaching certifications are very valuable and choosing the right one could directly impact your earning potential.

Be aware that many companies offer Life Coaching Certification but what is their certification process and is it recognised in industry?

There is no doubt that being a certified Life coach brings credibility but what it doesn’t do, is guarantee  that  you can have the skills, tools and techniques to deliver results.

When choosing a Coaching Certification ensure the following;

-   The provider has a proven history that consistently demonstrates success for their graduates

-    The Coaching Certification trainers are National Qualification award providers such as FETAC

-    There is accreditation that is recognised but nationally and internationally such as LBCAI, AC and/or ICF

Who benefits from attending Life Coaching Courses?

Well to be honest everyone.  Considering that premise of Life Coaching is finding balance and confidence in living a fulfilled life – who doesn’t need that?

The people who benefit from attending Life Coaching Courses are,  Individuals who want to self coach,  Managers, Leaders, Trainers, Educators, Business owners, Self employed, Job Seekers, Business Start ups, Parents, Carers, Directors and anyone who is interested in living their best balanced life.

What types of courses are available?

Life Coaching courses in Ireland are everywhere you look.  I see them advertised in my local schools and VECs as part time evening courses.  I see them run out of lots of different venues from colleges to hotels and community centres.  I even know of one course that is run from the living room of the trainers home.

The shorter courses tend to be part time classes from 6 to 10 weeks – each class being about 2 and a half hours long – you may receive a certificate of attendance

You can do more intense short courses – 5 to 10 days and receive a Coaching Certificate and/or FETAC award

The more substantial courses range from 3, 6 and 9 months  and you can receive a FETAC award and/or a Diploma

My experience is that some of the short – introduction to coaching courses can be anything from self help workshops to accredited certificate courses so please do your research.

What type of course will suit my needs ?

With so much choice on offer its a good idea to decide what it is you need to get from the course.

Once you have an idea what you want – then look at the course duration – what the syllabus covers – what the qualifications are – what you can expect to end up with

There are 3 main benefits from attending Life Coaching Courses

Personal development : Self Awareness, Self Management and Self Control

Up skilling:  Coaching skills, tools and techniques

Career Progression: Professional qualification and transferrable skills to increase employability

What can I expect to pay?

You can expect to find courses prices ranging from €90 to €12,500

The workshops are the cheapest and the designer label qualifications are most expensive

What I suggest is you invest in yourself and your needs.  Is it necessary to pay the higher limits – over €10,000 I dont’ believe so.  You can obtain an excellent qualification for example an Accredited Diploma  for between €2,500 and €3,000.  The majority of professional diplomas carry the same weigh in credibility and business recognition so don’t be sucked in by the labels !!
