Application Priority Deadline

Applications submitted 30 days prior to the course start date are guaranteed to be reviewed. We will review applications that arrive after the priority deadline on a case-by-case basis.

Dear Applicant,

The Professional Coaching Course is rigorous and can be demanding. We assume that each student who applies is fully apprised of the scope of work required to complete the program and agrees to take full responsibility for her/his well being during the year.

Given the demands of the program and the strong learning environment we wish to create, we take great care in our selection process. We seek applicants who demonstrate stability, reliability, and resourcefulness in their lives; the intellectual and emotional capacity to work with the course material; and openness to learning and personal growth.

Acceptance into the program includes several steps: approval by the instructor of your prerequisite program, completion of this application (including a photo, essays, and non-refundable, non-transferable $500 deposit), and approval of the application by the Professional Coaching Course leader.

If you are not accepted into the program, we will promptly refund your deposit. If you have any additional questions, you may request to schedule a conversation with the Professional Coaching Course leader.

We appreciate the opportunity to work with you and promise to act in good faith to deliver high quality coaching programs toward your development as a coach and human being.

We are committed to providing an inclusive and welcoming environment for all participants in the program.

Participation and community are essential to your learning and development in the PCC. As such, students are required to be present for the entirety of all four sessions, 9am-7pm each day with no exceptions. Please carefully check the session dates of the cohort you have chosen. If you have an expected conflict and will not be able to join any part of the sessions listed, please select another cohort.
- I have reviewed the session dates and times and confirm that I will be fully present on all days of all four sessions.
Cancellation Policy*
PROFESSIONAL COACHING COURSE CANCELLATION AND TRANSFER POLICY
These policies are effective as of the time you submit your deposit.

DEPOSIT: The deposit for the program is non-refundable and non-transferable. The deposit you submit is only applicable to your chosen cohort and may not be transferred to another cohort. Please note that if you are not accepted into the program for which you’ve applied, your deposit will be fully refunded.

TUITION DUE: The tuition is due and payable one month before the program begins. You are welcome to request an alternate payment plan (including the ones suggested on our site, which we always accept), but the financial obligation for the tuition is incurred at this time.

You may cancel 30 days or more prior to the starting date of the program, and your tuition is fully refundable minus the non-refundable deposit. If you cancel between 30 and 14 days prior, we will refund 50% of the program fee. If you are on a payment plan and have not yet paid in full, 50% of the program fee becomes immediately due and payable.

No refunds are possible after 14 days prior to the starting date. If you cancel less than 14 days before the program starts and have not yet paid in full, the program fee becomes immediately due and payable.

TRANSFERS/SUBSTITUTIONS: You may not transfer to another program nor substitute another person in your place.

WITHDRAWALS: If you withdraw from the program at any time for any reason, we will not refund your tuition. If the tuition is being paid in installments, the full amount becomes immediately due and payable.

EMERGENCIES: We always try to accommodate absences resulting from emergencies such as severe illness, accidents, and so on. Especially with the Professional Coaching Course, however, adjustments can be challenging and fees may apply. Therefore we are not able to accommodate requests for transfers for any other reason, such as work scheduling issues, family reunions, weddings, or the World Cup, for example.

REIMBURSEMENT FOR CANCELLED COURSES: If fewer than 10 participants enroll in a class, we reserve the right to cancel it. Should this occur, all tuition collected to date will be refunded. Though it is not typical that our programs are cancelled, to avoid confusion and disappointment, we suggest that participants who are traveling for the course secure insurance and/or refundable tickets. No reimbursement will be provided by New Ventures West on airline tickets or accommodations.
I have read and agree to the New Ventures West cancellation policy.
In part two of the application, you will answer essay questions that will require a self-assessment and likely take a few hours to complete.
