Professional Academy Certificate in Business Coaching Skills

This UCD Professional Academy Certificate will help you demonstrate your ability to manage yourself and others. Business coaching skills develop your management reach, whether you are directly responsible for a team or responsible for people within a project. With the introduction of remote and hybrid working in many organisations, the importance of good management skills has never been higher. Coaching skills are a recognised benefit within organisations looking to maximise performance while ensuring individuals feel empowered, motivated, and fulfilled.

Our online experience is designed to be just as interactive, supportive, and inspiring as the UCD Professional Academy campus experience.

Online courses can be accessed from any computer or laptop with an internet connection.

Live lectures are delivered using Zoom. During these lectures, your teachers will use technology interactively to ensure an engaging learning experience. When appropriate, students will be encouraged to activate their microphones so that they can ask questions and communicate with other students.

Student care is a high priority at UCD Professional Academy, which is why our Student Services team is on hand to support you throughout your time with us. They will respond to any queries you have, help you with any technical issues, and facilitate your learning experience at every point. All students are given access to our Student Portal, where you can see your timetable, access all your study materials, and manage your account.

If you are studying an online course, your assessment will also be submitted online.

This course is assessed in two ways. The first is a learning journal of around 200 words per week.  The second assessment is a report of 2,500-3,000 words telling the story of how you have tried to implement the learnings of the course in your own management style, including what worked for you, what you need to concentrate on, and how you may choose to implement in the future.

UCD Professional Academy Certificates and Diplomas are designed to give your career an advantage. Developed in conjunction with industry thought leaders our courses teach practical, applied skills to support you to achieve your career and business goals. They are suitable for career minded learners wishing to advance their professional skills and prospects rather than their academic credentials.

The Professional Academy is an independent wholly owned part of UCD designed to address the need for skills development in the workforce. Courses tend to be short, designed and delivered by industry practitioners, and are not part of nor do they lead to a traditional University award such as a degree or a masters. They are widely accepted by employers and many students are sponsored to study by their organisation.
