“The ILM7 coaching and mentoring programme comprised the right blend of practical and theoretical training and there was ample opportunity to build upon and sharpen my coaching skills in a lively and supportive environment.
Lois Burton is an accomplished coach and training professional and the sessions were both engaging and informative. I'm very happy to recommend this programme to anyone wishing to take their learning to the next level.
After completing the ILM7 programme I have successfully set up my own coaching practice”

“I have recently completed my ILM7 Executive level Coaching and Mentoring course with Lois. Having worked in L&D for a very long time, I had been using coaching skills in my day-to-day for years but I never felt comfortable referring to myself as a coach and saw this as an opportunity to build on what I knew and formalise those skills. Lois was so helpful from the start, helping me understand which course would be right for me as I hadn't had any formal coach training before. The course was great, the face-to-face days were amazing, and with the support of Lois and the fantastic women in my cohort my skills developed quickly. With all the coaching practice, supervision and workshops I now feel confident enough to call myself a coach!”

"I gained great benefit and enjoyment from attending the ILM 7 coaching and mentoring programme run by Lois Burton.
I found it very stretching and had lots of opportunities to practise new skills, with a great cohort of leaders from other organisations.
The psychological insights very particularly interesting and useful and I apply these on a day to day basis in my executive role.
With the programme being led by a master coach, I was confident that the host of tips and techniques shared were borne from significant practical experience. As a trainer and coach Lois was a great role model, very clear, supportive and generous. I would thoroughly recommend this programme to anyone seeking to develop and hone their coaching skills"
