A distance learning course is the ideal way to gain a Professional Diploma in Child Coaching. Whether you're looking to go on to further education, improve your job prospects or expand your knowledge, distance learning Diploma in Child Coaching is a flexible and convenient course, which allows you to comprehensively prepare for an exam or career through home study. What's more, because the distance learning Professional Diploma in Child Coaching Course is a fully comprehensive course, no prior knowledge is required.

This Quality Assured Diploma course is designed for those who are considering becoming a child coach or to those who wish to expand their existing knowledge of the subject. This is a field which is less than fifteen years old, despite having historic origins that span more than a century.

The course will cover definitions, standards and models in child coaching as well as examining the core principles and concepts which enable the successful establishment of a child-coach collaborative and positive relationship. Due to the vulnerability of children and the need for different or alternative methods of communication, there will be some material covering child development both physically and psychologically, parent-child relationships and how children learn and shape behaviour through different forms of communication.

Unlike adult coaching techniques, when working with children one has to employ flexible methods, and these may be through creative mediums and other 'hands' on strategies, all of which will be studied throughout the course material.

POSSIBLE CAREER PATH
___________________________________________________________

Play Therapist
Play therapists help children to make sense of difficult life experiences or complex psychological issues through the activity of play. Play is a child's natural way of communicating and with a play therapist they can explore various issues they might find difficult to express in other ways. As a play therapist, you would usually work with children aged between 3 and 11 on a one-to-one basis, or in groups of up to six children. You could work with children experiencing severe emotional pain and distress (such as depression, aggression or anxiety) caused by, for example: abuse trauma neglect domestic violence family breakdown bereavement brain development problems. You would aim to help children become more able to cope with how they are feeling, develop insight, emotional intelligence and confidence. Throughout this process, you would work closely with the child's parents or carers and other professionals such as teachers, social workers and nurses. Your key duties would include: assessing the child's needs running therapy sessions at a regular time and place making use of toys (such as puppets, cars and dolls) and creative arts, including drawing, clay, sand, movement, music and therapeutic story telling developing symbolic communication with children, which involves making a connection between the signs, symbols and actions the child creates through play and how these reflect their experiences creating an in-depth therapeutic relationship, which promotes positive change in the child by helping them to help themselves. Occasionally, you may need to attend court to give evidence, for example in a child protection or custody case.
