Program details
Overview
A blended graduate certificate that prepares experienced organizational leaders to coach individuals and teams toward stronger performance. Students learn coaching frameworks and practise applying them, working through tools for accountability, communication and process management, and examining what helps and hinders people in reaching their goals. A large share of the program is practice: coaching others toward real personal and professional development goals across a range of professional contexts. The program is recognized by the International Coach Federation as an Accredited Coach Training Program, and graduates receive 125 Professional Certified Coach learning hours along with the Certified Executive Coach credential. Credits transfer into Royal Roads master's programs, among them the MA in Executive & Organizational Coaching and the MBA.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Standard admission requires a four-year (or comparable) undergraduate or graduate degree from a recognized post-secondary institution, normally with at least three years of relevant full-time work experience. Flexible admission instead normally requires at least five years of extensive relevant work experience combined with some post-secondary education, assessed case by case. Applicants submit a one-page personal statement on motivation and career goals, a detailed resume covering the past ten years, two reference letters and official transcripts; no minimum GPA is stated. English-language proficiency defers to Royal Roads' general requirement for third-year entry and graduate programs: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall (minimum 6.5 in writing and speaking, 6.0 in listening and reading) or TOEFL iBT 88 overall (minimum 24 writing, 20 in listening, reading and speaking).
Application Details
Application Deadline:Royal Roads University sets no single university-wide deadline: domestic and international applicants apply directly to the university through the same process, and every programme page checked shows one identical deadline for both. RRU consistently closes a programme's application exactly three calendar months before that programme's own intake start date — a September 2027 intake typically closes 7 June 2027 — though a few programmes (the Master of Global Management, for example) use a six-month lead instead. Each programme lists its own upcoming intakes, running from 2026 into 2028 depending on the programme, and RRU says it may still accept a late application if space and processing time remain, but it publishes no separate international deadline and no institution-wide equal-consideration or rolling policy. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
