This is important – Sharon has revved up changed, improved and added to your Diploma Program...It gets bigger and better everyday!!! If you‘re close to graduation and won‘t be able to participate in this year‘s classes she‘s running, it‘s HIGHLY suggested you extend your membership for the year to include these classes...

To upgrade, email studentsupport@thecoachinginstitute.com.au or admin@thecoachinginstitute.com.au to find out what steps to take! ONLINE VIDEOS ARE COMING – MORE IMPROVEMENTS TO THE PROGRAMS!!! It‘s happening!! We‘ve been brainstorming, which means there are lots of ways we‘re thinking we can do things even better!!! Each month you‘re going to receive an ONLINE VIDEO FROM SHARON – either Sharon chatting to you about marketing, or interviewing a coach who is great at an aspect of marketing and sales... This is how it‘s going to work:  Certificate IV in Life Coaching: 6 videos for 6 months  Advanced Practitioner of Life Coaching: 12 videos for 12 months  Diploma of Life Coaching: 18 videos for 18 months There are 18 online videos in all... - The first 6 months focuses on building your one-on-one coaching business and is for everyone, regardless of your program type. - The second 6 months focuses on developing your niche and your database and is for Advanced Prac and Diploma students. - The final 6 months, which only Diploma Students will receive, will focus on online marketing, developing a product, building your database, running seminars, selling from the stage, entrepreneurial thinking, millionaire business models... If you‘ve been in your program for a while, you will get the video that is relevant to your month of enrolment... so if you have one month to go you will receive one online video. As these videos HAVE NOT been filmed yet, please understand we can‘t send you your video for the final month, ie month 6, because SP isn‘t filming it for another 6, 12 or 18 months!!! (Please read this carefully, in fairness to SP, she is NOT going to make all 18 in the next month, so it makes sense that you can only receive what has been produced by the time you graduate. (If you want to receive all of them, we will look at a smaller extension fee than the full fee, so they can continue coming to you... perhaps a monthly fee? Dunno... but at this stage we‘re looking for feedback if anyone who is close to graduating would be interested!) BRING’N IT ON!!! SYDNEY – BRISBANE – PERTH Okay – are you ready for this??
