CSA news.

We begin the sixth cohort of in the CSA ICF-Approved Diploma in Coaching Supervision in October. It’s a tribute to the CSA Training Team and to the 90+ marvellous coaches who have trained with us, that six years on from our first group, this programme has developed into one of the main courses of choice in the UK for trainee coach supervisors.  This course has grown in many ways since the ‘early days’ and we keep in touch with all that is best in coaching, so that our students and the graduate community are well resourced.

 

CSA France

We are delighted to announce our first programme in France that will begin next year – click here for details and please pass on this information to your French colleagues. This course signals a phase of international development for CSA and we are currently preparing programmes in several countries – watch this space.

 

Coaching Supervision news

Coaching Supervision is hot at the moment – two books on supervision have been published since our last newsletter:  ‘Supervision as Transformation’  Ed R Shohet and ‘Supervision in Coaching’ Ed J Passmore. Both of these feature CSA graduates and also the CSA Full Spectrum Model of Supervision. This model is used internationally and offers a comprehensive picture of the range and depth of supervisory work.Click here for details.

There will be another book on Coach and Mentoring Supervision out next month:  http://www.mcgraw-hill.co.uk/html/0335242987.html .  This is great news for coaches and for the coaching industry.  It’s been quite a slog over the past twelve years for those of us who have been pioneering the practice of coaching supervision and working to develop an understanding of what supervision really offers coaches – one which undoes the old fantasies of supervision as some sort of tick box activity or a form of policing. What is now obvious is how superbly this profession develops coaches because of its generative, supportive and resourcing functions  – as this recent literature on supervision, amply illustrates. I was also delighted to see Tatiana Bachkirova’s comments in Coaching at Work (Vol 6 Issue 5) where she proposes supervision as a non-mandatory support for coaches, one where supervision becomes: ‘our professional conscience in practice. It would be a regular and multi-level exploration of or work, chosen by us and not out of fear or for self-promotion, but as a personal commitment to self-improvement.” She further suggests that this rigorous, engagement in our own learning and development would serve the profession better than ‘crude and static accreditation systems’.  Yes, indeed.

 

ICF/EMCC statement regarding professional conduct.

This recently published code focuses on ICF and EMCC’s coming together to agree on-going professional development for the coaching profession and therefore has implications for coaches at all levels and for the use of supervision.
