The Executive Coaching for Equity Certificate is a professional, non-degree certificate designed for leaders within organizations, school districts, non-profits, and institutions of higher education. Our approach at the University of Colorado Denver is to support working professionals in an engaging, blended format of monthly modules completed through asynchronous and live, interactive virtual sessions. Our research-based curriculum of best practices in coaching is aligned with the International Coaching Federation (ICF) coaching competencies. Participants will receive one-to-one coaching from an Executive Coach as part of their professional growth and coaching development.

  • Influence an inclusive culture with effective coaching practices

  • Meet proficiency in the ICF Core Competencies for Coaching

Timeline & Structure

The next cohort for Executive Coaching for Equity Certificate begins with an in-person weekend in October 2023 and completes at the beginning of May 2024 with three face-to-face weekends; one in October, January, and April. Each month a virtual module will provide our coaching curriculum with a required two-hour, live Zoom call for in-depth discussions and coaching practice. Zoom calls will be scheduled with the cohort to ensure availability and maximum participation.

Participatory Commitment

This 8-month non-degree, continuing professional education certificate requires participants to complete one module per month and to practice coaching within an applicable, real-life context. Each participant needs to commit to approximately 15 hours per month between the learning materials and active coaching.
