FAQs

How does this program differ from other programs?

Our mentor coaches and instructors are board certified, practicing wellness coaches and bring a wealth of practical experience to the program. The examples we share are from real-world scenarios, not a textbook. We also heavily focus on the coaching skills themselves, like the essentials of behavior change and motivational interviewing, so that you leave with a strong foundation on how to coach.

How long does the program take?

The program is designed to be self-paced, so that you can fit the webinars and sessions into your schedule. For most people, it takes about three to four months to complete. Adding in the Master Certified Wellness Coach (MCWC) program extends the timeline to include nine weekly Zoom sessions and 10 additional webinars.

What if I want to become National Board of Health and Wellness Coaching (NBHWC) certified?

To become certified by the NBHWC, we have an additional MCWC program covering more in-depth topics relating to the Board exam. Our instructors are Board certified and participate in voluntary study groups where they can share their knowledge and experience to walk through scenario-based questions and provide helpful resources.

Do you offer a payment plan?

Yes. We have a six-month no-interest option available when you register.

I want you to know how absolutely proud I am to be a student of Catalyst. Catalyst is, of course, the gold standard of Health and Wellness Coaching. My sense of pride that I will be a gold standard Health and Wellness Coach once certified through Catalyst is both humbling and empowering and so priceless to me! Thank you as well for creating the feeling of family. It sounds corny, mushy maybe, but that’s my feeling, my experience with Catalyst. You and Suzanna are so personable and present, so involved, so invested in the education of us students. Again, thank you!

As a coach who is now moving into the health and wellness arena, the Catalyst Coaching Institute training provided what I needed to help me excel in my own career. The way they incorporate Motivational Interviewing on such a practical level is something every coach should know and use in their daily practice. Suzanna and Brad are both wonderful instructors and I would absolutely recommend Catalyst to anyone who is considering this route in their career.

The FastTrack program in Colorado provided a very valuable weekend! Suzanna’s teaching style is comprehensive, approachable and honest, making it easy to understand and put everything into practice. The hands-on practice with actual Mentor Coaches on site with us also provided a distinct advantage over traditional learning settings. To top it off, the interaction with the other attendees provided a new perspective and enhanced the discussions/learning process. It was so great to be with people from all over the country who all have the same goal of helping people. Thank you!
