Class Descriptions

We asked coaching students what were the important things they learned about coaching. Predictably, some commonalities are found in everyone’s list and some unique insights appear.

UCU provides you the opportunity to dig into the core competencies that every coach needs as well as to find the courses that will let you be an expert coach in your area of study.

Each program (Direct Sales Coaching, Salon Coaching, and Life Coaching) offers approximately 30 hours of instruction devoted to your major: key content coaching needs in the specific area of study. You will receive a broad understanding and application of core knowledge competencies in the live seminars. As you complete your major, you may choose electives to finish out your program.

Look through the list—and as questions develop in your mind—contact us for more details.
