Support
One of the reasons people enjoy the Smart School course so much is that they receive great support and feel part of a live, caring community.
It’s very easy to feel isolated when you’re studying and practising, so we’ve put in place several support mechanisms to help you along the way.
So in addition to the training weekends, you will receive:
- One year of micro-group mentoring
- Business Missions to expand your practical skills
- Online Learning Zone with videos on detailed marketing and planning
skills - Full Business Kit with templates, questionnaires, processes and
everything you need to get started - Comprehensive manual
- Interactive online community for connection and encouragement
Micro-group mentoring
Throughout your journey you will receive online micro-group mentoring on your live practice and challenges.
Each micro-group has a fixed membership of no more than six coaches plus the mentor enabling you to share your challenges in a safe, confidential environment and at a level of detail to get valuable input from the mentor and group on how you can move forward with your client work.
The mentoring lasts for a year so that even after qualification you can continue to get support on the work you do with clients as well as how to build your coaching practice.
This is truly invaluable and will ensure you feel confident in your work and secure in the knowledge you have expertise to back you up where needed.
Online Learning Zone
In addition to the live training, there is a wealth of online video training to which you get 24/7 access in a secure members area.
This allows us to give you more technical or detailed training that would otherwise take up too much time on the live training weekends where we work at a more strategic level Each video is a digestible size – anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes and each ones sits alongside a discussion section for that video so you can raise questions, share ideas of discuss the content..
Business Missions
Business Missions are fun but important elements of the programme which increase your knowledge and experience around a number of key skills.
You will be tasked to complete at least three of the Missions but the more you complete the better skilled you will become in your field.

- Running an educational webinar to generate leads
- Producing your first newsletter
- Creating your website
