Hannah Butler, our Director for Coaching Practice, writes:

I’m pleased to announce our new Centre for Excellence, which will be an important part of our community engagement strategy, ensuring that we are engendering a dynamic learning platform for our EMCC UK members and broader stakeholders.

The centre will create and implement comprehensive development programmes, offering our members the ability to access current thinking, research and to be up to date with innovations in our profession and the broader adult learning field.

The centre will include three directorates:

Directorate for Coaching Practice
Directorate for Mentoring Practice
Directorate for Supervision

Launch event

The Centre for Excellence will be holding its first event on 16 January, when we will be introducing and launching the 2023 strategy for coaching practice. The session will outline the purpose of the strategy, and explore how members can get involved and be part of the Centre for Excellence.
