Education

The participants learn a basic format for each coaching session in order to be able to successfully manage the first coaching sessions. To work out the coach's concern clearly and to formulate it in a solution-oriented way is an important methodical step in the coaching discussion. We introduce the systemic-constructivist way of working and attitude. In order for the new to unfold in the coaching process, the appreciation of the old is necessary. It is therefore important that the coach has an attitude that is free of judgement and appreciation, that draws attention to the potential, so that it becomes free for the people and the task.

A competent coach needs a high level of personal competence, which includes appropriate handling of one's own feelings and those of others. He/she needs so much contact ability that he/she can remain stable in relationships even in difficult situations. Process competence, methodological knowledge, psychological and psychotherapeutic knowledge, understanding of organisations, hierarchies and leadership are also part of the basic tools of a coach. In almost 20 years, we have developed an independent, comprehensive coaching theory and practice, which we teach in this training.

As CCBerlin we stand for professional training according to the highest standards since 2004, which is why we do not do training on two weekends, with "a little mental technique" or in one week on an island.

In 2009, we developed a systemic training programme also - but not only - for the business context.  Our coaching training programme combines cross-method and systemic skills, taking into account the latest findings of brain research and the research results of positive psychology. Far beyond the systemic coaching training, you will benefit sustainably from small groups and intensive support. You will also acquire in-depth knowledge of online coaching, even if the focus is on face-to-face coaching.

With us, you have real experts in systemic coaching. We have been supporting companies in training and team and management development since 1993, have been pursuing the topic of systemic coaching since 2000 and have been organising two training courses per year since 2009. With our approach and our coaching centre, we have made a significant contribution to the training standards and understanding of professional coaching in Germany and are constantly developing ourselves and our training with great passion.

Our unique selling point is that we not only integrate this experience into our coaching training and further education programmes, but also continue to work in and for companies. We know where the shoe pinches in companies and what professional systemic coaching support can currently look like. Benefit from this mix - it is rare!

In times of the pandemic, we have learnt that online coaching is possible and useful. Nevertheless, coaching - and therefore also training - gains depth through face-to-face training. That's why we organise the vast majority of module days as face-to-face events. And to train your online skills right from the start, we also organise individual days as an online format via Zoom.

Together with experienced colleagues, we train you to become professional coaches in Munich:

Our training programme is exempt from VAT. It has been recognised by the government of Upper Bavaria as a qualification that prepares you for a profession.

In our work, it is important to us that the ‘chemistry’ is right. This also applies to the training programmes we offer. We therefore conduct a personal interview with every prospective trainee in advance. This allows us to establish whether the training programme is a good fit for the interested party and whether the interested party is a good fit for us. We look forward to hearing from you.

The Institute for Coaching and Mindfulness (ICA) emphasises individuality and diversity in order to meet the requirements of an increasingly complex range of topics on the coaching market. That is why we value diverse groups and want to train people from different sectors and with different personalities to become coaches, because we consider diversity and openness to different ways of thinking to be particularly important.

The ICA creates a collegial and personal learning atmosphere in small groups (approx. 12 participants). Within approximately one year (11 modules), theoretical foundations and sound methods for the professional and independent implementation of coaching processes are taught. In addition, the training programme helps you to discover and develop your individual personality as a coach.

The systemic and mindfulness-based coaching training programme led by Mathias Riedel (author of MINDFUL COACHING - Veränderungsprozesse, systemisch, achtsam und kreativ gestalten, published by Kohlhammer-Verlag in 2024) is supervised by a multi-professional team of lecturers and conducted in tandem for each module. The training team imparts practice-relevant, scientifically sound expertise at the highest level and uniquely combines a systemic, creative and mindfulness-based approach.

Coaching Spirale GmbH is a renowned coaching and training institute in Berlin that has been in existence for over 20 years. It is a place of active cooperation and is committed to individual and social transformation processes. 

Certified in-service training to become a certified systemic-integrative life and business coach: In a total of 13 modules over a period of 13 to 18 months, we train our participants in recognized systemic methods and enable them to become coaches with sound specialist knowledge and effective skills. The special feature of our training is the high degree of practical orientation and the “inner work”. Reflective self-awareness in one's own development process is an essential prerequisite for coaches to be able to support other people in a benevolent way. We make this experience possible for our participants in a trusting setting with a group size of max. 20 participants in a face-to-face format.

According to our systemic-integrative approach, we see coaching as an individual development process in which the focus is on the person, not their role in society. In coaching, we look at the interactions between people and their systems, the collective, nature and the bigger picture. To this end, our training participants learn to adopt an appreciative and solution-oriented attitude, ask questions, offer a change of perspective and help the other person to develop their own solutions.
