We are thrilled to announce that Kingstown College has been awarded the EMCC Global Supervision Quality Award (ESQA) for our Professional Diploma in Coaching Supervision. This is an important milestone – and a real testament to our commitment to professionalism, ethical practice, and excellence in coach education.
Why This Matters
EMCC Global’s ESQA is a globally recognised accreditation for coaching supervision training programmes – a mark of high-quality standards rooted in rigorous professional competence. By earning this accreditation, our diploma gains formal validation from one of the leading bodies in the coaching world – giving our graduates confidence that they’re trained to internationally respected standards.
For coaches and supervisors, this means you can trust that the programme is not just theoretically sound, but structured in a way that truly supports impactful supervisory practice.
About the Diploma
Our Accredited Diploma in Coaching Supervision is designed to equip experienced coaches with:
- Theory, practical tools, and reflection skills – so you can supervise with insight, confidence, and ethical clarity.
- A systemic mindset, using models like the Seven-Eyed Model, to help you understand relational dynamics in supervision.
- Contracting and boundary-setting expertise, including navigating transference, confidentiality, and parallel processes.
- Advanced relational and facilitation skills, so you can hold challenging conversations, foster deep insight, and facilitate creative, reflective practice.
- Organisational supervision competence, tailored to working within systems, with internal or external coaches, and engaging with stakeholders.
- Professional development, helping you define your supervision philosophy, plan for ongoing growth, and prepare for potential EMCC or ICF accreditation.
We offer the diploma via live virtual classes, allowing you to join from anywhere in the world.
What This Means for Our Community
- For Current and Future Students: This ESQA accreditation reinforces that our supervision diploma is built to the highest standards. If you’re a coach looking to deepen your expertise, enhance your supervisory capacity, or move into supervising other coaches, this programme is now more attractive and internationally validated than ever.
- For Organisations and Clients: Having supervisors trained on an ESQA-accredited programme means more robust, ethically grounded supervision. That adds significant value to coaching teams, mentoring initiatives, and leadership development plans.
- For Kingstown College: This recognition reflects our long-standing mission to raise the bar in coach education. Since 2003, we’ve aimed to combine practical rigor, ethical integrity, and a global learning community.
A Word of Appreciation
We’re deeply grateful to EMCC Global for recognising our diploma. As EMCC themselves noted:
“Most importantly, EMCC Global accreditation reinforces our belief that high-quality supervision is at the heart of ethical, reflective and impactful coaching.”
