Training for Coaching Expertise and Professionalism
In the past three years, five times I have spent anywhere from 2 to 5 days working with ACMC coaches and facilitating the processes by which they would take their skills to the PCMC level. That has led to 19 people having reached PCMC credentials. To coach at this level means demonstrating the core coaching skills at a level “3" for the first seven benchmarks as well as four additional skills: pattern detection, framing, tasking, and clenching the KPI.
This experience has taught me a lot about this next level of coaching expertise and how to facilitate people moving to that level. Consequently, I have designed and written a PCMC training manual as well as PCMC Feedback Form (Form 3). Recently, several people ready for PCMC have said that they really did not want to go through ACMC and be assessed afterwards, which is one way we have offered to do PCMC. They have communicated that they actually want some training in the advanced skills in a focused training. To meet this need, I have designed the following five-day training and assessment program for PCMC credentials.
