No one becomes a professional coach from a weekend training or even an
extended month long training.  It takes a lot more than that.  We designed
Meta-Coaching so that it has within it all of the solid models, patterns,
and distinctions of NLP and all of the additional models of Neuro-Semantics
that arose from modeling expert coaches.

Consequently, Meta-Coaching involves 4 modules which cover NLP, Meta-States,
Neuro-Semantics, Self-Actualization, Change, and much more.  As a great many
people have taken Modules I and II (NLP and Meta-States), Module III is for
ACMC certification and Module IV is for PCMC credentials. 

The following is about PCMC which we are now offering at least once a year
somewhere in the world. 

ACMC IS JUST THE BEGINNING

When you complete Module III, Coaching Mastery, you have all of the models,
patterns, and coaching skills that you need to get started.  No one
graduates from Coaching Mastery as a master!  But everyone who graduates has
the potential of becoming an expert in coaching-if they gives themselves to
the practice and study.

Now if you have an impatient program in your mind, then your Meta Place is
setting you up so that you will not become a highly competent coach or an
expert in coaching.  Impatience in hurrying up to "get it" not only prevents
you from getting it, it positively hinders your development.  Instead, think
long-term.  Think years.  If coaching competence was something a person
could learn in weeks or even months, there would be a whole lot more
competence in the field.  But that's not how it works. 

Because ACMC is just the beginning, PCMC is the next stop on your pathway to
coaching competence.  And what is PCMC?  It is just 4-days of deepening your
ACMC skills.  It is deepening and expanding your ability to- 

          Recognize a coachable moment, how to facilitate those moments,
and how to utilize them.

          How to set frames not only as you start the coaching
conversation, but more importantly, during the session.

          How to set frames to correct misunderstandings as they arise in
the session in real time.

          How to detect and use pattern detection to get to the heart of
the matter with your client.

          How to understand and practice strategy process as a deep
listening method.

          How to use the Well-Formed Outcome questions more powerfully.

          How to deepen your use of empathy and validation as supporting
skills.

          How to learn how to challenge a client in a way that delights
them.

          How to confront effectively and compassionately.

PCMC is about deepening your coaching skills.  It is about learn how to make
the deep dive into your client's mind (Meta Place) so that you can get to
the heart of the person's meanings more effectively.  To that end, you will
do lots of practices in the first four days of the training; you will also
see demonstrations.  

Then the fun begins.  Then you will get to see ACMC coaches, who have 400
hours of paid professional coaching, set for assessment.  They will do that
in front of the whole group as they have 45 minutes (or a bit more) with a
fresh naive client.  We get these fresh naive clients by asking for people
who want a coaching session but who may have never been coached.

The fun here is the mystery and the adventure of "what will happen?"  That's
because we never know!  For an experienced ACMC coach, what will happen
should not surprise him or her.  For those with less than 400 hours, they
usually get surprised and say things like, "I've never seen or heard a
situation like this before!"  That's often when I step in to manage things
and not leave the client hanging.  

What's amazing at this point is how much everyone who is watching the live
coaching sessions learn.  It is the difference between intellectual learning
and experiential learning.  I think what's happening is that if you are in
the audience watching-you are thinking, feeling, and experiencing the
session as it is happening.  That is, you are putting yourself in the
coaches chair and imagining what you would say or do.  That doesn't happen
very often when you are hearing a presentation about coaching.

Here's something else amazing about PCMC training- it is open to everyone!
Unlike ACMC that has so many requirements (NLP training, Meta-States
training), we open PCMC to everybody.  And as a result we get people who are
brand new to NLP and Coaching.  We get Coaches from many other Coaching
Schools.  We get lots of ACMC coaches who are not ready to set for
assessment, but who plan to do that in the coming years.

If you are a Meta-Coach, then the PCMC training is your next step to become
a truly competent coach even if you have just taking ACMC.  In fact, I would
recommend that you plan to take PCMC two or three times to get the full
value from it.  There's really nothing like it.  

              When is the next one?  Bali, Indonesia December 2-9, 2024.
