Student Coaching Now Available!

Students: The Health Science Center continues to embrace the growing integration of coaching culture and practice as a means of developing our people and achieving our Purpose: To transform lives in order to improve the lives of others. Therefore, there is an ongoing commitment to develop students as future leaders through modeling coaching concepts as a means to prepare them for the transition into the higher calling of the professions into which they will soon be entering.

What is Coaching?
Not to be confused with existing academic or career advising or other available student support services, coaching is also not counseling, mentoring, consulting, or a form of therapy. Instead, coaching is characterized as “forging a partnership in order to engage in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires the individual to maximize their personal and professional potential.”

Available on-campus Coaches are comprised of a pool of committed faculty and staff from all reaches of the institution. These volunteers have been trained through campus-facilitated means, many from accredited programs through the International Coach Federation (ICF). Coaches are selected through a formal application process based on their experience, dedication to serving, and adherence to Our Values.

If interested in being paired with a campus Coach for a variety of personal and professional development reasons, please submit the follow form:
