The Diploma in Coaching and Mentoring course equips you in the knowledge and skills of coaching and mentoring and the models and approaches that are used within this field. We also have a range of singular mentoring and coaching courses available.

Coaching and mentoring courses and qualifications are typically rooted in psychology and explore commonly applied models and techniques used in organisational settings. Coaching is associated with team building, executive coaching, management coaching, life-skills coaching, career development and personal and professional development.

Mentoring is associated with positive personal and professional growth, career outcomes and development. You will learn the skills, techniques and in depth insights of mentoring. In the role of mentor, you will contract and develop with your client a highly personal yet professional relationship that is creative, dynamic and intentional resulting in a positive outcome.

Mentoring enables the individual to develop a greater sense of fulfilment, role identification, internal authority and identity, that results in a greater level of competency and personal satisfaction.

Certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (Credit rated at SCQF level 8)
I really appreciate the support and guidance Dr Marie Murphy has given me during my studies. I really appreciated her patience and kindness since English is not my first language. She was always there to help me with assignments and gave clear and thoughtful feedback, which made the learning process so much easier and more enjoyable. Her quick responses and support kept me focused and feeling confident during the course. I’m super grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a friendly and supportive tutor!

The course material is presented in a great and easy to understand way. The colourful pictures and diagrams enhance the course material. The content of the material was interessting and keeps one engaged without it being overwhelming, it is a great mix. It is great to have a tutor assigned to a student where one can get help and support and ask questions. I appreciated my tutor`s feedback on my assignments. And I particularly appreciated the clarifications regarding the TMA and the word count for each different section, and help to clarify the referencing system.

Certificate in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (Credit rated at SCQF level 8)
The course provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Through its structured materials, I was able to develop essential CBT skills that are crucial for effective practice in the field of mental health support. The knowledge I got has significantly enhanced my confidence as a mental health support counselor, enabling me to apply these techniques in real-world situations with greater assurance. I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Marie Murphy for her exceptional support throughout the course. Her insightful feedback was invaluable in helping me refine my skills and deepen my understanding of the material. I am confident that I will revisit the course materials in the future, as they are well-organized and serve as a valuable resource for ongoing learning and professional development.

i found this course and the material very informative, lots of personal tasks which helped to develop my knowledge and understanding of CBT. My tutor was helpful and would give direction if I was unsure of something. I feel able to begin to introduce CBT into my own work with more confidence.
