HEALTH COACH COURSE OPTIONS FOR EVERY NEED
The Dr. Sears Wellness Institute offers Health Coach Certification courses that provide age specific programs, advanced training, resources, and tools.
Whether you choose to become a Certified Health Coach (CHC) with our life-stage specialty courses, or take your coaching to the next level by becoming a Master Certified Health Coach (MCHC), you can pick the path to certification that best fits your needs.
Instructor-Led Courses: A Certified Health Coach needs the knowledge, tools and resources designed to support clients at their specific life-stage. We help you achieve this by giving you the option to choose one (1), two (2), or all three (3) life-stage specialty courses (Families, Adults & Seniors, and/or Pregnancy). Your first course is six (6) weeks and includes your core health coach training, plus the content and curriculum for that life-stage. Each additional life-stage specialty is three (3) weeks, building upon the core foundational knowledge acquired in your first course.
Self-Study Course: Our most popular Adults & Seniors Course is now available as a self-study option. This new Adults & Seniors Self-Study Course allows you to become a Health Coach on your own schedule and be ready to make an impact with clients quickly. Get Started >
Instructor-Led Master Course: For those desiring to become a Master Certified Health Coach, once you have completed your initial course, you will begin your 24-week Master Course.
