Professional Coaching Supervision

Leading to a CMI Level 6 Qualification

Develop the expertise to support coaches to practise safely, effectively and ethically.
Course overview

What to expect

This specialist programme is designed for experienced coaches, organisational leaders, managers, and HR/OD professionals who have a solid grounding in coaching and are now offering, or preparing to offer, supervision to coaches working within organisational settings.

While grounded in the core principles and values of coaching, coach supervision is a distinct and advanced discipline. It provides a reflective space to explore practice, strengthen professional capability, and attend to the coach, the coaching relationship and the wider organisational context. Supervision combines reflective dialogue, challenge, support and guidance to promote safe, ethical, effective and continually developing coaching practice.

Course Accreditation & Recognition
Why this accreditation pathway

Why CMI is the best fit for Professional Coach Supervison

CMI
Why we choose CMI for Professional Coach Supervision

As an approved centre for both CMI and ILM, we are able to choose the awarding organisation that we believe is the strongest fit for each area of professional development.

For our Professional Coach Supervision qualification, we choose CMI.

CMI has a long-established reputation in management, leadership and professional development and offers a specialist qualification pathway for Professional Coach Supervision. Its framework recognises supervision as a distinct discipline, bringing together reflective practice, ethical decision-making, professional standards and the capability to support coaches working within complex organisational settings.

That makes CMI particularly well suited to the way we approach Professional Coach Supervision at ChTC. Effective supervision extends beyond coaching or mentoring the practitioner; it creates a structured space for reflection, professional challenge and learning, helping coaches maintain safe, ethical and effective practice while considering the needs of their clients, organisations and wider professional systems.

For learners, a CMI qualification also provides independent recognition from an established professional body, giving coaches, employers and clients confidence that their development has been assessed against defined qualification standards.

The right accreditor for the right qualification

We don’t believe that one awarding organisation is automatically the best choice for every subject. As a centre approved to offer qualifications from both ILM and CMI, we select the qualification framework that we believe best complements the subject, the learning experience and the professional outcomes our learners are seeking.

For Professional Coach Supervision, that’s CMI.

How it works

The Learning Experience

A clear two-stage journey from guided learning through to qualification support.

01 Phase 1

Guided Learning — Multi Module

This course is delivered across multiple guided learning modules, allowing the programme to be structured into clear stages of development.

A modular format supports progression over time, giving learners the opportunity to build understanding, apply learning between sessions and return with reflections from practice.

This approach is particularly suited to programmes that cover broader themes, multiple areas of competence or a longer developmental journey.

02 Phase 2

Undertaking Your Qualification

For those who wish to take their learning further, The Leadership Edge offers the option to progress towards a CMI Level 7 qualification. Following completion of your chosen modules and a period of reflection, you can choose to register with the Chartered Management Institute (CMI) and begin working towards the qualification.

Once registered, our fully inclusive qualification service provides expert guidance throughout the process. From understanding assignment requirements and planning your work through to assessor feedback, you will have the resources, advice and encouragement to stay focused, confident and on track.

Developed and refined over the last 15 years, our service is designed to make the process as straightforward and supported as possible, helping you translate your learning into a recognised professional qualification
