Educational Institutions

We support Educational Institutions as they develop health/wellness coaching programs onsite (often as part of their student retention program or employee wellness programs) or bring wellness coaching content into their curriculum. Universities partner with us, learn our training curriculum and have our support as they move forward with their program and accreditation if they choose to move in that direction.  They gain a quality health coaching curriculum, approved by the ICF, NBHWC, CHES, AHNA, CDR and others. Along with quality training for their faculty, this program prepares Colleges/Universities for the quickly changing health coaching world with assurance that they have the best and the cutting edge.

Our intent is to support the growth and development of the profession of wellness & health coaching and we see universities playing a significant role.
