It was such a pleasure to do this course with Dave, he’s very knowledgeable, fun and a joy to work with! He has an upbeat, positive attitude that made me feel at ease and excited about my progress. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking for a more structured practice. He truly cares about the people he works with and helps them achieve their goals. Thank you so much for everything!

Dave is such a lovely genuine bloke which made the experience of learning Community Based Life Coaching more enjoyable. The course itself is provocative and it gives you the opportunity to choose various coaching models which best suits you as a Life Coach or in the context of your role within the community. I really enjoyed pulling it all together for my assignment because it allowed you to really think about various scenarios and how you could use the various coaching roles. A thoroughly enjoyable course Your a blessing Dave! Thankyou!

Training with Dave was brilliant from start to finish. The materials given for the course are useful and explained thoroughly. Dave gave good strategies to use as well as one to one tuition. His knowledge and life experiences gave this course the edge to be absolutely brilliant. I would totally recommend him if you are thinking about a career in coaching.

Really useful course, taught in an interactive way. Dave encouraged discussions and brought methods and terms to life with real time examples. Thoroughly enjoyed it and ready to put what I’ve learned to use in my daily role.

I thoroughly enjoyed exploring the world of coaching and how I can bring it in to all aspects of my work. I particularly enjoyed the format from large group to small to 1-1. It worked brilliantly for me. I would highly recommend this training to others.

Dave is a phenomenal trainer and coach. Content was underpinned by theory and brought to life through personal insight - Dave is a polymath and story teller who weaves humour and humanity into his work, puts delegates at ease, and stimulates inspiration. Training has had an immediate, direct and lasting impact on my practice and this has been cascaded to my team. Highly effective.

Dave is a magnificent trainer - he is personable, knowledgeable and very supportive. You see the subject matter modelled through his own approach and this reinforces the value of a coaching approach in your own work.

Thought provoking and interesting course - an introduction to some of the theories that underpin current coaching approaches presented in a practical and useful way so that they can be adapted to suit different organisations and roles. It’s a good opportunity to consider how your organisation works and current good practice and to have the time and space to discuss issues with different organisations, share good practice and reflect on how you could improve the way that you interact with the people you work with.

A really informative, well structured and professionally presented course by Dave Wood with helpful examples, interactive exercises, interactive discussion and time built in for questions and self-reflection on individual and organisational practice. Delivered with honesty, positivity and humour and providing excellent pre and post course support information including handbooks, video tutorials, suggested reading, additional resources and consolidation activities. I have really enjoyed the first two modules and they have already provided me with lots to think about and great, new ideas and approaches to try in my every day practice.

Dave has a relaxed approach to the training which was refreshing we took plenty of breaks in order that the online training felt manageable. He is extremely knowledgeable and gives plenty of time for interaction and discussion.

I recently finished a Accredited Award in Community Life Coaching with Metanoeo CIC. I found the course both interesting and delivered in a professional but relaxed manner, which helped me to relax and enjoy the lessons more. I was offered support, in finding a placement and allowed to complete one essay after the course finished and another when i had completed my placement, as this did not start straight away, to allow me to reflect on my practise and what i had learned. I felt my questions and queries were answered promptly, within lessons, over emails and during the one to one tutorials offered. The tutor provided me with all the information needed to set up my own practise and has kept me up to date with other courses available for my personal development. Thank you Christine Cunningham

This is a great course. In part that is due to the content, which is well planned, and in part to the delivery - Dave is a great tutor - but mostly it is due to the learning atmosphere that is created. This course brings together people with different backgrounds and experience and allows them to share and learn together in a manner that is both effective and fun. I can't remember ever laughing so much before on a course! I would definitely recommend this course for anyone who is interested in becoming a life coach.

The module parts of this course is conducted in a group setting. It is an informal but nonetheless, safe leaning environment. Dave’s teaching is informative and fun. It is clear that he is passionate about helping others and sharing that passion with his students. He is extremely supportive and happy to meet outside of the set module times. His use of his own experiences during the group sessions makes the course content more accessible and easier to understand. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone who is interested in pursuing a career in life coaching.
