What you'll learn.

  • The difference between coaching, mentoring and telling
  • Questions that open a conversation rather than close it
  • Listening for what is meant, not what is said
  • Agreeing an action the person owns

Course overview.

Coaching conversations that develop someone instead of just correcting them.

The 1 day works through 6 modules and 18 individual topics, from Coaching and mentoring basics to Practice and role-play. Each one is taught then practised — you do the thing rather than watch it done — against situations from your own work.

Groups are kept small enough that everyone speaks more than once, and the facilitator is in the room the whole time rather than dropping in. You leave with the PDF courseware and notes in your own words.

Who it is for.

Anyone whose job depends on other people. There is no prerequisite and no assumed seniority — individual contributors get as much out of the day as team leaders, because the situations are the same ones.

How it runs.

One day, roughly 9am to 4pm, with a facilitator in the room the whole time. It runs in a CBD training room in any of the six capitals, or live online in breakout groups.

Terrific course. We covered a lot. Richard had plenty of great tips, guidance and anecdotes. He was very adaptable and incorporated my real-world experiences into the curriculum points, so everything we covered felt relevant. Thank you! Time well spent. I will be recommending Nexacu PD classes to my colleagues.

I enjoyed this course. Richard was great and explained the content very well. I learnt some new techniques regarding coaching and mentoring as well as have difficult conversions in the workplace. It turned out to be a 1 on 1 session which allowed me to freely engage with the course content and Richard.

Questions

Questions People Ask About This Course

Anything not answered here, call 1300 886 190 and ask a person.

How long is the Coaching and Mentoring course?
It runs for 1 day, 9:00am – 4:00pm, with a facilitator in the room the whole time. Nothing is pre-recorded and there is no platform to log into afterwards.
How much does Coaching and Mentoring cost?
$699 per person, excluding GST. That covers the course, the PDF courseware and the room. If four or more people from one organisation need it, an in-house course usually works out cheaper — tell us the numbers and we will price both.
Do I need any experience before this course?
No prerequisite. The course is built around discussion and practice, so what you bring from your own work matters more than any prior training.
Can I do Coaching and Mentoring online instead of in a classroom?
Yes. Every date marked “Live online” runs over video with the same facilitator and the same practice, in breakout groups rather than around a table. It suits teams spread across states.
Which cities do you run Coaching and Mentoring in?
Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney, plus live online. Every venue is a CBD training room. If your city and date are not paired on the schedule above, ask — dates are released in blocks.
Can you run Coaching and Mentoring just for our team?
Yes — that is in-house training. We come to your office, or you use one of our rooms, and the course runs for your people alone using your own scenarios. More on in-house training.

Four or more people? In-house is usually cheaper.

The same course, your people only, built around the situations they actually face.
