What is coaching and how do I know if it’s right for me?
Coaching is an exciting role that covers all areas of life. Coaches help people achieve their goals, overcome their problems, and create lasting competencies that serve them in their family, relationship, business, finances, or wellbeing, depending on their needs. Many coaches start as individuals who have faced challenges in their own lives and now understand the profound impact that support from others can have in overcoming obstacles. If you are passionate about the emotional, mental, or spiritual wellbeing of others, and want to do highly rewarding and deeply satisfying work, then coaching may be the path for you.
As part of your reflection process, we encourage you to try working with a coach to get a sense of the experience, sign up for Jay’s coaching workshop or talk to one of our friendly [Enrollment Advisors].
What will my journey as a student feel like?
In an online program offering a mix of self-study and live coaching practice, your student experience is largely dependent on how you engage with the materials and how much you participate during virtual sessions. We strive to create a sense of community where every student feels they truly belong, creating a safe space for learning and growth while validating individual experiences and contributions. We encourage students to think out loud and express themselves openly and respectfully to make the most of their journey and connect with others in their program. To hear directly from our graduates, check out our graduate success stories.
Does Jay Shetty teach the program?
Our Certification Program contains three learning components plus a final exam. The first component is a series of video modules delivered by Jay Shetty, including pre-recorded coaching lessons and demonstrations. All students also have the unique opportunity to connect with Jay via live group Q&A calls throughout the program. The remaining learning components, including self-study and live coaching practice, are supported by our world-class mentors. Like Jay, our mentors are expertly trained professional coaches, ensuring you receive the highest quality guidance from beginning to end in preparation for your final exam.
What does it mean to be a Jay Shetty Certified Coach?
Becoming a Jay Shetty Certified Coach means you are joining Jay's movement to change one billion lives. It prepares you to be part of a community of purpose-driven individuals who use the power of coaching to become better parents, partners, and professionals. We believe that through coaching, you can create change in your family, company, and community and, like many of our graduates, launch your very own coaching business. You will also receive a digital Certificate of Completion, a "Certification License" to publicly use and display the title of Jay Shetty Certified Life & Success Coach, and brand materials, which may include a logo, badge or other intellectual property to support your marketing and branding efforts.
What are my career opportunities after graduation?
There is no singular way to use your coaching designation. As the name suggests, life coaching covers all areas of life and impacts the world across three interconnected planes: people, places, and policy. Connecting with people is the primary role of a coach, and that can happen in many ways: via one-on-one coaching, facilitation of mastermind groups, an online presence, or even in your current job. Who you want to serve and which problems you want to help people solve is up to you. Coaching also shapes our roles in the places we live and work--from law firms, hospitals, and gyms to schools, universities, and even government. In these settings, coaching enriches and elevates our professional positions, which helps us influence and affect policy to create a ripple effect across societies and the world.
How long will it take to complete the program?
With our carefully structured approach, our program is designed to be completed successfully within 6 months, though some students have finished sooner. With ongoing student support during the program, you can rest assured that you will receive the necessary resources and guidance to make the most of your learning journey within the required 6-month timeframe.
Will I be featured on the Jay Shetty Certification School website?
Once you become a Jay Shetty Certified Coach, you have the option to have your Certified Coach profile listed on the Jay Shetty Coach Platform, where you will remain listed on the site as long as you are an active member of the Certified Coach Community.
