Loyola’s Coaching Certificate Program
The Coaching Certificate program emphasizes critical self-reflection and self-awareness, which are essential for effective coaching, helping you explore your core values, potential blind spots, and techniques such as non-attachment. You will also gain discernment, enabling you to clearly articulate the distinction between coaching and other support services like mentoring or therapy.

Workshops
The Center for Coaching and Leadership offers affordable and accessible workshops on leadership and coaching topics:
Presence in the Room: Becoming the Facilitator Your Group Needs
Good facilitation makes room for every voice, turns time together into meaningful progress, and helps groups think and decide in ways they could not on their own.
It begins with who we are, long before it becomes what we do.
Across five two-hour sessions, Carey Borkoski and Kerri Sutey lead this exploration of both the being and the doing of facilitation: how we show up, design and prepare, respond to what emerges, and carry the practice forward.
When we know ourselves and can hold the container with care, groups have room to do their best work together.
This course meets on Thursday evenings from 6:00pm - 8:00pm EST on zoom on the following days:
January 21
January 28
February 4
Febraruy 11
February 18
The cost for the workshop is $750.
