Optimus coach AcademyOpiniones 

I had been looking into developing my coaching skills for a number of years and wanted to find a course that enabled me to learn and become accredited as that was important to me. I found Optimus and am pleased that I did. I received exceptional support from the Optimus team and have grown in confidence to take the learning to better support my clients move forward. There is a great community of fellow coaches at all experience levels that continues even after you finish and the extra resources to develop a coaching practice have gone above and beyond my expectations. It is easily one of the best personal development decisions I have made.

I wanted to be professionally qualified as a coach and my experience with Optimus has not only helped me achieve this but has gone above and beyond in terms of support and the community it creates.

I chose Optimus because it had everything in one place for the training, mentoring and help to get to through to ICF Accreditation. There was a personal feel to the business and also a wide range of experience and knowledge in the cohort of students.

I graduate not only with the new skills the qualification gives you, but also an incredible group of peer coaches and ongoing support.

If you are looking for Professional Coach Training then I would highly recommend you consider Optimus.

This was my second Coaching program I had gone through in the last 2 years, but my first ICF accredited. As someone that had already been coaching, I broadened my knowledge and toolkit by leaps and bounds through the 6-month Optimus Professional Coaching course. All of my clients learn and grow through ways that work for them, and I feel confident that because of my Optimus Coach Training, that know matter what they bring I have the variety of tools, theories and knowledge that will help them get the results they desire. Added bonus: The peers in my class will now be lifelong friends.

My training with Optimus has honestly changed my life and my business beyond anything I could have expected. I was gently encouraged out of my comfort zone and always felt safe to try out new things.
Each of the trainers brings their own unique style and I loved how different they all are.
I would recommend training with Optimus 100%

I can honestly say that training with Optimus Coach Academy has been one of the best decisions I've made for my life. I never imagined embarking on the training that I would have learned as much as I have about myself and everyone else for that matter, thanks to Transactional Analysis and Neuroscience. This has shaped how I deal with people and indeed myself. I have met wonderful peer partners who I'm sure will continue to be friends outside of training. The course material is very thorough, the tutors are very knowledgeable and the company cares about Its student and wants to see them flourish. You may look at other providers, but I doubt you'll be able to find a course as comparable and all-encompassing as the L2 Professional Diploma offered by Optimus.

I had been looking at and researching coaching courses and qualifications for years but once I found Optimus, I jumped in as soon as I could.
The breadth and depth of subjects from Positive Psychology to Somatics and Neuroscience really appealed, and my experience with the admin team has been exceptional. I also needed flexibility, so being based online and having alternative days for classes that I could swap to when needed was invaluable.
The community of fellow students was amazing - kind, friendly and supportive which is indicative of the culture of the organisation.
The team of teachers were all impressively knowledgeable and passionate about their subject areas. But the real test of how well we had been taught was at the ACC exam which was far easier than I thought it would be due to the excellent grounding in ethics and ICF competencies that we had throughout the course.
The whole experience was positive, I’ve made great friends and feel fully equipped to coach thanks to the excellent mentoring and feedback.

Very quickly into my conversation with Ruth I knew that Optimus was the company that I was going to choose. Perhaps it was because Ruth used to be in education like myself, but it was more probably because she was so genuine, warm and curious.

The course is so well designed, using the latest research in how we learn making it enjoyable and informative.

What I didn't realise at the time was the biggest value wasn't the diploma at the end of, nor was it the incredible knowledge and coaching skills that you get.

But the community you become part of. It's priceless. The support and care of those around you during and after the diploma is one of the best parts of Optimus.

Designing and delivering a well thought out course isn't too hard if you're an expert in your field like Ruth, creating a community takes something special.

If you're looking to get into coaching, I would choose Optimus every time and I look forward to completing more courses with Ruth and the team! :)

The training at Optimus was brilliant, it was varied and thorough.
Ruth and her team are so supportive and friendly. The whole time i knew someone was available should i need them and even since the training the support is still there.
The amount of content you get is fantastic, i was really impressed by this.
The encouragement for everyones own individual journey is beautiful.
I looked forward to every session and met amazing people that I'm sure will be life long friends.
Not only have i learnt to be a coach but i have been on a invaluable self discovery.
I can't recommend Optimus enough.

Coaching has been a passion of mine over my 30+ years in the food industry and I have been fortunate to be involved in many organisational coaching (and mentoring) schemes.
In 2021, I decided that I would like to learn how to do this "properly" and look to leave the corporate world, set up my own business, and see if I can help people and have fun at the same time.

I looked at a range of courses and many seemed very "corporate" and, dare I say, more than a little "stiff and starchy"...

I found Optimus, then discovered Ruth Kudzi's podcast, which also gave me a real insight into the style and approach she and her team take in the training, which was a breath of fresh air.
A 15-minute video call with Ruth later, and I took the plunge into what has proven to be a great investment...

The Optimus course is fun, accessible, and follows the ICF principles as it takes the learner on a journey through all different types of coaching (GROW, neuroscience, positive psychology, somatics, to name but a few). This gives you a solid grounding in a wide range of approaches that you can "try on for size", in the many practical sessions.

There were a couple of other aspects that delivered even more than I had hoped - the course is highly interactive and you go on a real journey of self-discovery. I have come out the other side, not only as a certified coach, but with a much better understanding of myself and some friendships that I am certain will last for life.

A big thank you to Ruth, the Optimus Team and my fellow learners for a great experience!

I came into the diploma after completing a different qualification. I felt like I needed something more robust to give me a solid grounding in coaching principles, as well as giving me the space and support to find 'myself' as a coach. Ruth and the team are not looking to make cookie cutter coaches here, there is genuine space for individual reflection in addition to gaining a solid grounding in foundational coaching principles.

Coaching is part of my life now, and the Optimus diploma gives me the grounding that I need to work towards formal accreditation. As a person from a professional background already, this is very important to me.

Thanks so much to Ruth and the team!

The coaching diploma I took with Optimus genuinely had a huge impact on my life. When I finally decided to train to be a coach, I researched a few different schools and to be honest, the ones I looked at, I remember feeling that I wasn't clear on what I'd get at the end, or how the course would run and what my on-going path could be. They all fried my brain! With Optimus, I felt that most of that was answered and the call I had with them helped clarify and straighten out some of my thinking. It's a huge investment and it's not a decision I took lightly and now, I'm so glad I did.

My outlook on life, the way I think, the way I approach things, it's all changed for the better (and yes, you CAN change! You will learn this on the course). I understand myself more than I ever have done. And you need this in order to help others; they don't say you need to put on your own life jacket first for no reason!

I feel like I'm becoming a better parent, partner, daughter and just a better human in general, with everything I've learnt and I'm so excited to be able to start building a coaching business to help and support others. Because really, that's always been my super power and now I have the tools, with access to on-going learning (because we're all always learning), to be able to do this in a constructive way.

I thoroughly enjoyed the course. All modules were interesting and some even blew my mind. Any time I had feedback, it was taken on board and I was listened to. Genuinely. It's a great combination of theory and practical, which was also really important to me as I can't learn anything if something is all theory-based, which was another huge pull for this course.

So if you're thinking of becoming a professional coach, with everything included that you need to get there, including on-going support and learning, you've come to the right place.

Completing my training at Optimus has been life changing. I have had the opportunity to learn, practice and grow both personally and professionally. The team are warm, friendly and always ready to help. Optimus provided everything I needed to become qualified and ICF accredited, leaving me with less stress and more time to focus on building my business. Thank you to the whole team!

I'm not sure it is an exaggeration to call my experience of the Optimus diploma anything other than life changing. It was so much more than I was expecting - learning, community, self exploration and understanding, a qualification, mentorship, intellectually stimulating and practical. This is a company that genuinely care about their students and go above and beyond in their delivery of service including beyond the diploma as we are now experiencing as alumni. I recommend them without hesitation for ICF accredited coach training. This investment will be a turning point in my career I'm sure.

Joining the Optimus coach Academy, was by far, the best move I could have made to receive elite coaching education possible. I had previously attended another coaching institution, so I can honestly say that Optimus does not only provide an incredibly in-depth coaching program, but provide students with other areas of study that will, without reservation, make them better coaches. Topics such as Neuroscience, Positive Phycology, Transactional Analysis and others gives the students additional tools to help their future clients.

The team at Optimus also provides invaluable mentoring program that consists of 4 hours of one to one as well as group mentoring.

As a recent graduate of the program, my relationship with Optimus does not end here. With their Alumni group we stay connected, can take advantage of additional training and resources as well as Triad and mentorship.

If you want to be a premier coach and support for clients to achieve their goals, do yourself a favour and register with Optimus coach Academy.

The best investment in myself and a transformational experience

I initially signed up because I wanted to become an ICF accredited coach. I was a business consultant and I was looking for ways of creating sustainable transformation for my clients and increase my credibility.
I had no idea how much transformation I myself will have after this program.

The trainers and coaches in this program are experienced and knowledgable and very supportive. I have met amazing people in my cohort and built meaningful friendships.
As a result of increased confidence I dared to increase my prices and market my services with more courage.
I made my investment back a couple of months in the program and I am so proud of my clients.

What I love about this school is that they are open minded, always listen to the students and everyone gets the attention they deserve.
I had the opportunity to practice coaching in a safe space and be coached and mentored.
There is also alot of support for building and growing a coaching business.
I recommend Optimus to everyone who is serious about coaching.

Practical enriching and value adding. I'm coming to the end of my ACC coaching training with Optimus. I've appreciated of course the content and the range of approaches we have covered. But it's refreshing also to work with an organisation that recognises this is an investment of time and money and openly acknowledges and embraces the business element of coaching that other training providers I felt either are squeamish and gloss over how to repay your investment or make promises that don't feel trustworthy. I've felt during my time with Optimus the value-add is ever present, there's more than I could consume in six months whilst working full time but I have an alumni group and access to more learning even post ACC training. Within reason they recognise sometimes life gets in the way of a best laid training plan and do what can be done to help students complete. I do sincerely feel and have felt Optimus trainers want you to do well, most have trodden the same path in recent years - standards are uncompromisingly high which is a good thing but people want you to succeed and be a coach with strong ethics and integrity.

Training with Optimus Coach Academy has taken my coaching to another level. There has been an abundance of opportunities to coach, receive feedback on my coaching, mentoring and explore many different aspects of coaching. I have truly loved every single moment. The support and guidance has been high quality and I am now continuing my journey as a coach feeling more confident and skilled. This has been one of the best investments I have made! Thank you to the Optimus Team

Best decision I have made in years was to join Optimus and upgrade my skills, knowledge and coaching. Excellent content and delivered by some of the best talent in the industry. I feel like a far more confident coach, have met the most amazing people and made life time friendships and a robust support network. I have also gained complete clarity of my coaching style, niche and my next steps. Optimus has been completely life changing and I recommend highly.

Without a doubt the training from Optimus is the very best on the market. Not only to go for the ICF accreditation but also the additional training in Neuroscience, Positive Psychology and the support to set up your business. The training is incredible and I’ve always felt very supported. I’m just finishing the training now and we’re being invited to an Alumni group where we will continue to get support. If you’re thinking about where to get the best training to become a qualified coach then you’ve found it!

I’m so thankful for Optimus and everything all the trainers do. The course is in-depth, the right length, and wonderfully supportive. You have hugely helped me on my journey personally and professionally, opening up a whole new world of possibilities! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
