Join Svea van der Hoorn ICF MCC EMCC-SP and I for a three-hour, refreshingly pragmatic workshop: Liberating your MCC Application: The Pragmatic BELL Path" 🔔 🛎️ Date: Friday, 11 October 2024 TIME 🕘 9.00-12.00 noon New York (ET) 🕑 14.00-17.00pm London (BST) 🕒 15.00-18.00 Frankfurt (CET) 🕡 18.30-21.30 Mumbai (IST) 🕘 21.00-24.00 Singapore (SGT) We will share with you what we have learned from our own journeys, the journeys of successful applicants we have worked with as mentor coaches, Level 3 course participants, and a die-hard MCC journey group who willingly and enjoyably meet on Saturdays once a month. We've been analysing assessor reports to glean learnings, we've tracked re-submission reports to learn from those, we attend webinars and events, and have far too many zoffees and zees (Zoom coffees and teas) than is probably sensible, talking about all things MCC. What we will not be offering is a complaints, laments, and pity party - even though we have plenty of empathy and compassion with those for whom the MCC journey is painful. In fact, this workshop was born in response to some of what we heard and we thought "there must be a more learning-filled way that does not require pain 🤕🥲 before gain ✅ ✅ 🌟". Quick and easy to register and pay: https://lnkd.in/gxZpxcT8 Included in your 200 USD investment is:  ✅ 3- hour workshop - interactive and info-sharing ✅ 1 x 20-60 mins online individual session with either Svea or Matthew - use by 20 Dec 2024, or by arrangement ✅ PDF resource  And we promise, plenty of humour, rigorously researched practice-based evidence and ICF information.

Last week saw the delivery of AC Training's latest UKSPF funded workshop on 'Delivering Projects with Excellence'. As one of the delegates myself, I can hand-on-heart say what a great day we had, learning so much from the project maestro that is Michael Christopher MBA ChPP! The day was packed with insights, strategies, and interactive learning. And while I might be slightly biased, my fellow delegates had plenty to say about their experience too: “The course flowed well. I liked the relaxed, open atmosphere" "Training was thorough, interesting and fun.” “Great delivery, loved the informal environment” “I really enjoyed the day, especially being able to interact with others in "real life" rather than virtually. It was good to share ideas and experiences. The trainer was excellent and very engaging and ran the session well including everyone. It has improved my knowledge of what projects are, who should be involved and all the steps to include. I've not had any similar training on project delivery before, so it was all useful. Thank you.” If that's whet your appetite why not join us for a future workshop. There are limited places available on our next session:- Managing Through Coaching, January 16th 2025, face to face in Upton Magna.

I’ve just finished two days at one of Paul Avins‘ scale up business workshops (have a look if you want a really amazing business coach and to be amongst inspiring people!). We had to introduce ourselves and the organisations we lead. I was dreading it (public speaking…..!). When I was up there it came easily. I talked about the recent growth of the group and our exciting plans for the year ahead (also the challenges of being in the international educational travel sector during the Covid pandemic!). It made me think carefully about what we’re building, and what we think makes us really BRILLIANT to work with. At UKLC last year the team came up with an updated set of our company values (the other businesses in the group will do the same soon!). They aren’t just words on a page (or the walls, yet); they shape how we support our students, engage with our partners, and grow as a team. ✅ We care – about our students, our team, and the experiences we create. ✅ We build and maintain trust – essential in everything we do. ✅ We make a difference – in the lives of young people through life-changing study travel. ✅ We create fun, life-enhancing experiences – because learning should be memorable. ✅ We are living leaders – constantly evolving and inspiring growth. ✅ We actively encourage growth – for our students, our team, and our business. It was useful to pause and reflect on these today and how they drive our success. And if you’ve worked with us, I hope you recognise these values in the team (isn’t that their real test?!) #CompanyValues #ELT #Education #Teamwork #UKLC
