Summary
Coaching psychology is the scientific study and application of behaviour, cognition and emotion to deepen our understanding of individuals’ and groups’ performance, achievement and wellbeing. This one-year MSc (or two-year part-time) Blended Learning course will provide you with a solid grounding on coaching psychology theory and practice from a broad variety of psychology perspectives, helping you to use a research and practice-informed approach to promote change for individuals, organisations and their communities that is sustainable – attainable, lasting, and respectful of the wider social and environmental context. Additionally, the MSc Coaching Psychology programme covers a wide range of transferrable skills with real-world value, with an emphasis on personal development, professionalism and employability. You will be expected to work towards a minimum of 80 hours of coaching supervised practice (for BPS Stage 1 accreditation), building on taught coaching psychology skills and practice during sessions (with a mandatory minimum of 20 hour of supervision, embedded in the course). Research modules will introduce you to advanced research methods, which you will apply to your very own research-based coaching psychology project. You will be assessed through observed skills practice, written assignments, supervisor’s reports and the completion of coaching hours. This course has no exams. We offer this course as a Master’s and a Postgraduate Diploma. For the Diploma, you will not complete the research consultancy project (and would not be eligible for the BPS Stage 1 accreditation). The course can be completed in 12 months full-time (1 year) or 24 months part-time (two years). Whilst this is a full-time course, the blended learning delivery model enables you to balance your studies with other personal commitments. The course is the first step towards gaining Chartered Psychologist status with the BPS, and will prepare you to progress onto Stage 2 doctoral-level training, which allows you to become Chartered).
