Tara Hurst – Manager

“During my time studying with the LCA I have experienced true professional service and very fast responses to my questions. Nothing was ever too much and I have enjoyed chatting to Pete Jordaan on various aspects of the course. He kept me moving forward and made things a lot easier once I knew how to approach a specific subject/project or assessment. This enabled me to complete the course in about 8 months part time, which was my goal. Very happy to recommend the LCA to anyone interested in becoming a Life Coach,just give them a call and they will work with you on how to make it happen. The course material and information was put together well and helped me understand the different aspects of life coaching. My tip, get started and then just keep doing a little bit every day and create a mini support group with your fellow students (this was vital to my success).”

Thomas Kovacs

“I find Life Coaching Academy a balance of a professional outfit and a close-knit community of fellow coaches-in-training. The Cert IV Life Coaching Program that I am enrolled in is rigorous, fosters theoretical and practical learning and inculcates self-discipline. I am already using some of the coaching techniques I learned in my coaching work here in Jakarta. LCA also has excellent in-house coach practitioners who have many years of experience that I can tap into and learn from. I recommend LCA to any coaches-in-training, who are not looking for short cuts but for a comprehensive program that teaches them how to be an effective and impactful coach out there, and helping people realize their potential.”

Fenny Ang – Jakarta

“When I decided to embark on a formal life coaching certification journey in 2005 I considered a few institutions, based on experience, accreditation, and value for money and curriculum. To me it was key that my qualification needed to be internationally recognised, and that I should be able to apply the skills obtained globally. Also, since I would be travelling all over the world, I needed to be able to be accommodated remotely during triads and assignments. Peter and the LCA bent over backwards to support me, and the turnaround time was always very quick, professional and complete. The trainers and mentors are very knowledgeable, experienced and helpful and the study material is of an exceptional standard. Today I am applying everything I have learnt in my own successful life coaching practice in South Africa, and I maintain a close association with LCA for ongoing support and learning. Thank you Peter and everyone at LCA!”

Celeste Du Toit – South Africa

“I have found the Wellness Coaching Course very comprehensive & meaningful. I liked the fact it limits participation to 6 people because the conversations are deeper & more real when dealing with often very personal & sensitive material. I would HIGHLY recommend you do it! “ JUST DO IT”

Beverly Berelowitz

“The LCA provided me with the knowledge and skills to become a working coach. The journey begins with the residential weekend, which is a great way to build the foundations of the course. The program is relevant and organic to today’s coaching requirements, the backbone staff (especially Lynda & Peter) were always prompt to answering any questions or helping solve any issues. The trainers are highly knowledgeable and very helpful creating a supportive environment and their mentor program has provided an inspiring setting to being a working coach. I highly recommend the LCA as your preferred coaching academic choice”

Zak Dikvert – New Zealand

“After much research into coaching institutions and speaking to other coaches about their experiences I decided on L.C.A the main reason being that it felt more authentic without lots of hard sell material added or pushiness. I enjoyed the intake weekend with some great Coaches running the course. The course has added new knowledge and insight to support my clients though my PT Business which is 13 years young, and although weight loss of the body starts with weight loss of the mind all the extra tools and learning experiences achieved though the LCA course to further support my clients has been awesome. The course has also taught me some valid lessons on getting the best out of me and I hope to add to my knowledge though L.C.A in the near future.”

Vibeke Ostermark

“The Life Coaching Academy basically changed my life! When I started my journey with LCA I wasn’t fulfilled at all in my professional life, I was depressed and had a very low self-esteem. I absolutely loved every single step of this journey as it allowed to continuously grow, work on my strengths and weaknesses and expand my knowledge at my own speed. I can’t recommend the LCA enough as it changed me in a beautiful way, I learned to push my own boundaries, face my fears and find the confidence to overcome in challenge that is coming in my way.I am now fulfilled and happy and I am so glad I can now, in my turn, help people reach their goals and put a smile back in their face. Thank you to all the beautiful people I met there, Peter, the teachers and the students, you made this journey even more beautiful and special to me. And always remember you are special too.”

Anne Cailleaux – France

“I did quite a bit of research into the different life coaching courses on offer before enrolling with the Life Coaching Academy. The main reasons I chose the LCA included the weekend intake at the START of the course, the support offered, the cert IV was accredited and the interaction with the LCA during my enquires indicated they were the right choice for me. I could also re attend the weekend intake sessions in the future at no cost (other than my personal expenses). I have spoken to other coaches recently who completed their qualifications at other institutions and it has reconfirmed to me that I made the right choice. I am so glad I trusted my instincts and went with the LCA. To be honest this course has changed my life!”

Tracey Hovey

“LCA Life Coaching gives a good insight into the coaching industry, leading you in the right path to becoming a fully developed, professional life coach. I was impressed by the quality of the course material and the time frame you are given. Throughout your training in this course, you are constantly growing in knowledge and developing in all aspects in your life coaching career, becoming and reflecting the image of a true life coach. Thank you LCA for being there.You guys are great.”

Lina

“When I started to search for a coaching company it was important that they could accommodate me as an international student. Even before Day 1, I knew that the LCA was perfect for me. The support from the LCA team, and the coaching mentors, has been great. The program is extensive, the materials are great and easy to work with, and the new knowledge and skills that I now have, exceed my expectations. I have now signed up for the exec master program, because I just cant imagine not continuing this. 10 out of 10 to the LCA !”

Michael Brooker – Singapore

“A course not only full of enjoyment but very informative and above all practical indeed. It was in fact a life coaching experience for me too. The course was organised perfectly with online cutting edge facilities assisted by friendly and helpful staff members at all levels. I can only highly recommend it for whoever wishing to make a transformation in his/her life and gear up to share the experience gained through The Life Coaching Academy with others who are in need. The essence of the course is to become an excellent listener, building trust and rapport by asking right questions that people can help themselves to sort out their own issues.”

Mina Etminan

“I came into the LCA course already ‘converted’, having been previously coached by a member of the LCA alumni and experiencing real change first hand. This sparked a desire in me to assist others to realise their goals and reach their potential. The LCA provided the perfect framework for me to gain the skills and knowledge I needed to do this in an environment where my thinking was stimulated. I was motivated and supported by not only the LCA staff, but by the other students who were also completing the course with me. This is a course that will lead you to a career where you can help bring about positive change in the lives of others, and simultaneously feel the positive effects in your own.”

Mark Gleeson

“Obtaining my life-coaching certificate from The Life Coaching Academy was a positive and progressive experience, and due to the depth of the course, I feel that I am confidant to start my career as a coach with extensive knowledge and understanding. The online portal for students is not only a fantastic tool to help you through the course but also to refer to as you embark on your journey as a coach. I would also like to thank my mentor, Ina Trood. Her passion and motivation for coaching was evident in all our sessions and because of her experience and constructive feedback I feel that she was a catalyst in my initiating personal breakthroughs as well as providing direction throughout my course.”

Jackie Cooke – International Athlete

“As coaches we are in a unique and privileged position to work with clients to assist them in achieving their desired goals. Learning the necessary skills to do so, is managed methodically and professionally by the Life Coaching Academy (LCA). Further, LCA is both supportive and flexible in the manner in which this learning takes place. Beyond the professionalism and support of LCA, the skills and experiences I attained from my studies enabled me to better understand and communicate with my friends, family and colleagues; a truly life changing experience…”

Paul Rinder

“The LCA reflect true professionalism and enthusiasm for what they do from the very first point of contact. Being an overseas online student, I was a bit apprehensive about making the commitment but there is so much support from your coach, your fellow students and the LCA itself. I loved taking this journey of self exploration and meeting like minded people in the process. I only have positive things to say about my dealings with the LCA and I can’t wait to sign up for our next journey together! Thank you LCA for giving me the tools to make my dream a reality!”

Nadia Matthews – Hong Kong

“I chose the LCA after investigating many options. It turned out to be a great choice as I completed my program well within the prescribed timeframe and have now added the set of skills I obtained to my existing business with great results. The academy support services were always there to give me encouragement and advice when I needed it. Thank you to the staff at the LCA.”

Lyndall

“When I began to search for a life coaching program to study I felt that the LCA was a genuine program (it required commitment, passion and enthusiasm.  After all that is what a life coach is; committed, passionate and enthusiastic) .  It was an academy that cared about training coaches that want to make a difference in this world. And that was only my first impression, what came next was even better.  When I began my life coaching journey I have found support that made me stronger as a person, I have found an academy that believed in me and in my dream. I have found myself as a life coach.   I brag about the LCA to anyone who wants to become a life coach.  I brag about Deb Hann and Trudi Pavlovsky for being a great support in my life and regardless what it is that I seek they taught me to believe in myself and the power within.  Not to mention Peter Jordaan for answering all my questions no matter how silly they might seem.  Thank you for being an example of excellence, thank you all for making me a qualified life coach.  I  will always work hard at making you proud of me.”

Toleen Badawi – Saudi Arabia

“I am very thankful and appreciative of the support and guidance of Peter, Lynda and all the team at the Life Coaching Academy. Completing the course has been a major step in my career goals and I feel very empowered and confident with all the knowledge and strategies that I feel I have gained through my experience with the LCA. The course not only has helped me with running my business and assisting my clients more effectively but it has also given me some great tools to aid in my own personal development.”

John Reynolds

“When I decided to to pursue a certification in coaching I looked at numerous programs both in Australia and in Canada.  The comprehensive course offered by the LCA and the flexible course delivery was the perfect option for me. I managed to do the Professional Coach ICF Certification while spending part of the year in Australia and the other part in Canada.  I found that my movements and traveling did not impair my capacity to complete the program and I felt supported by the LCA every step of the way.  I have learnt much more than I expected through this process and have met and connected with amazing people. I am excited with the options open to me as a result and would recommend the course to anyone who has a genuine desire to develop their skills and knowledge in coaching.”

Anne de Champlain – Canada

“A former LCA graduate inspired me during my own personal coaching experience, and with a natural passion for positivity including a strong desire to assist others I felt compelled to advance my own learning and knowledge.   I undertook a life coaching course with LCA which has enabled me to develop the necessary frameworks to inspire change for others.  The Coaching Mastery Weekend Intensive was an extremely inspiring and empowering experience, a perfect foundation in experiential learning and fabulous opportunity to connect to likeminded people. In facilitating a supportive learning environment LCA provides a great opportunity for training and development.”

Marnie Dromund

“I am so grateful to have taken the journey in becoming a qualified coach with the LCA. From the course content, to the  Coaching Mastery Weekend Intensive, and the quality of trainers and mentors, the LCA delivers a great framework of training and development for the aspiring coach. I found the course to be extremely informative, inspiring and it definitely provided the kind of personal challenge I was seeking at the time. The experience was a powerful one that certainly facilitated my own self development helping me transform my own life and I feel humbled and privileged to now be in the position to help and support others to do the same.”

Stefani Zappia – UK

“The Life Coaching Academy adopts a very innovative way to learning and the pacing and structure of the learning process allows students to really understand what they are studying and apply in real life (in my case, my workplace). The residential weekend, book critique, research project, assessment questionnaires, webinars, triads and mentoring program provided a solid foundation for developing coaching skills and my ability to set up my own practice. The insights gained from the webinars and the other projects and assessments really helped in refining my coaching skills throughout the process. The professionalism and friendly approach of the LCA stands out above the other institutes I have contacted. This was pretty much seen from first interaction with Lynda and all throughout my program of studies. Peter was very helpful in exploring options for me to complete my program of studies at the most acceptable / efficient timeframe without compromising the quality of my learning and experience. He also provided a solid checkpoint for me and was very flexible with things. My mentor provided solid support to me throughout the program. My triad mates were very supportive and encouraging as well. The LCA staff supported me all throughout my journey. The entire program allowed me to maximise learning opportunities and build my confidence. I recommend the LCA to anyone who wants to embark on a journey of self discovery and develop their coaching capabilities.”

Ian Gutierrez

“I am based in Jakarta, Indonesia, an HR professional with a passion for Training and Coaching.  I had been researching a good on-Line Life Coaching Course for an extended period of time. I had inquired about several courses in Singapore & Jakarta but they didn’t seem to be what I was looking for. I researched about the course while in Australia and LCA came up in my search.  I liked the time-line and the course content being offered by LCA. Needless to say, I was very impressed by their professionalism when I spoke to them over the phone. Today I am so happy I selected LCA for Certificate in Life and Business Coaching. I would recommend LCA to everyone interested in becoming a great Coach. The highlight of the course for me is the in-depth knowledge base that I am gaining through the extensive course material and the way it is delivered, the amazing Webinars, professional & passionate Trainers & Mentors, the practical experience through Triads, Research Project and Book Critique. The course is inspiring and challenging at the same time. Five months into the course, I love every bit of the time that I am investing. I have gained so much in terms of self-development since I enrolled with LCA. I am constantly improving as a person and in my interactions with others. LCA always emphasizes the coach’s humbling ability to make a difference in others lives, to make them feel more accomplished and happy. That for me is the essence of Coaching”

Taruna Aggarwal – Jakarta

“The Wellness Coaching Training provided excellent comprehensive education, tools and resources for use in Wellness Coaching practice with individuals and in Corporations. The integration of the coaching process relating to ourselves as individuals gave a greater insight into the client experience and an active involvement in our own Wellness process. I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to move into the Wellness business and those persons working in Human Services. A very enjoyable, thought provoking and interesting training program. ”

Maree

“Flashing strobe ceiling lights, jack hammers, sub zero temperatures and fawlty towers type accommodation. Did that deter us – no! Deb in all her awesomeness Hann, battled through and saved the day. The lights were dimmed, the jack hammers stopped, temperature was increased and we had a bottle of complimentary wine at dinner. What more could we ask. Oh yes, it was a truly inspirational weekend.”

It has been a great personal journey. Meeting people from such varied backgrounds has been a joy and I have maintained contact with some. I am looking forward to building up my own coaching business. Thank you to both you and Lynda – I have always found you very helpful and pleasant when I have contacted you with a mundane problem and I have really appreciated this. ”

Dr Shirley Shultz Robinson

“I feel that I am a very well qualified coach and have learned a very broad spectrum of the aspects of coaching and can go in to any situation and confidently coach clients. The course really does equip you to start working once you have finished. The course reading material was very useful and informative. The trainers and those running the LCA were excellent, very knowledgeable, passionate, inspiring and helpful. I felt the level of support provided was excellent and nothing was ever too much trouble. I always felt the questions I raised were answered well The weekend residential courses were very beneficial and it was great to have interaction with other people on the course. The mentor programme was also very valuable. ”

Sarah – Louise Jones

“Hello Coaching Colleagues Over the past 18 months you have contributed to my coaching journey and personal growth. Thank you so much for your input, words of encouragement, constructive criticism, being a sounding board when I have needed it (which was often) and for just being there for me! Without your support I would not have been able to progress to this stage and achieve my dream of launching a Life and ADHD coaching business for young people. You have all been my COACH along the way! The journey has been slow and steady…small steps forward which over the last few months has resulted in me completing the LCA Cert IV course, Coaching Teens & College Students with ADHD with Jodi Sleeper-Triplett and my first round of Recipricoach training (which I only found out about from one of you). With this grounding I now feel I can take a deep breath and step out into the coaching world. Today I have officially launched the Young Achievers website (www.youngachievers.net.au) … I wanted to share this exciting milestone with you! I am now on my way to providing coaching services……… whilst I continue to grow my skills and and gain more experience. As always any feedback, ideas or subtle prompts to keep me on track will be WELCOME! Thanks again for championing me this far Best Wishes Terry”

I had such a great experience completing the Professional Coach and Certificate in Wellness Coaching courses at LCA. All of the teachers, mentors and support staff are incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and responsive. The content of the course is comprehensive and it was great that progression through the modules is largely self-paced. I found that the course really sets you up well for running your own coaching business, with detailed business modules and many hours of coaching practice. The students are held to a high standard and the courses are rigorous and robust, with a large volume of amazing templates and study materials to help you on your coaching journey. I’m a bit sad to have finished my courses as I enjoyed the experience so much! I look forward to studying with LCA again in the near future. I cannot recommend them enough.

Great course, self paced, incredible mentors / teachers. Good materials but at time confusing layouts. Support was great but keep in mind, they seem understaffed to manage the high demand workload, so be patient on waiting for results. Thanks LCA!

I thought the course was very well laid out. Had a bit of trouble at the beginning figuring out how to get the assignments in. I am in Canada and it took over a month to get there. We figured it out quickly after that though. The time difference was challenging for the in person webinars but it was so worth it. I am very confident that this filled in the areas that the first course I took was lacking.

LCA is an Academy that I would definitely return to for follow up training. The course is detailed (yes you will be challenged 🙂 It promotes individual growth as well as quality learning outcomes. The trainers and mentors are easy to engage with and want you to succeed, they really know their stuff. Highly recommend.

This course is very robust and sets you up really well with all the skills and experience you could need. Once you get your head around how the course runs and the little details around where to locate various tools online via the Student portal its fairly straightforward. I did find I struggled initially with the 10 steps versus the assessment requirements, as it felt like I was given all this documentation, but no real understanding around what fit where and what order to do things in. I was a little overwhelmed and would have appreciated a mentor, or someone checking in with me during the initial stages of the course. I also felt the need to post items in for assessment was very “old school”. I believe alot of this has been addressed with the current growth of the LCA and its move into a more dedicated online presence (including s change to Zoom for their online interactive presentations). I also found gaining support from the current and past cohort via the LCA Facebook page also filled in some of the gaps for me in what was required for different sections of the course, giving me the opportunity to ‘pay it forward’ and in turn help others when I could. The live webinars and in-depth triad requirements really helped me feel the progressions in my skills and learning and the opportunities to constantly reflect and get feedback added to this.
I found once I got into the swing of what was required, I was able to excel and really fall into my abilities in a very supportive and encouraging environment.
Course content really covers all areas and is not something you can ‘skip through’ which means anyone completing this course is getting a well deserved qualification, not just ticking some boxes and getting a certificate. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone looking to find a NAT recognised qualification, that is well structured, broad,detailed and really sets you up for success!

I began my life coaching journey as a way to change my career but have found the knowledge I have gained has changed my life. The LCA have been incredibly supportive, the mentors are so knowledgeable and the community were all friendly and encouraging. It was challenging in parts but the end results were worth the effort. Overall a wonderful experience.
