Najczęściej zadawane pytania
What is the Certificate of Completion, and what is it not?
It shows that you finished this course and scored at least 80% on the final assessment. It is not an accredited qualification, a professional coaching credential, or a vendor, employer or government certification.
How does the final assessment work?
It has 35 questions drawn at random from the course question bank, with a 35-minute time limit. You need 80% (28 of 35) to pass, and each attempt gives you a new mix of questions.
Do I need to be a supervisor to take this course?
No. It is written for supervisors and team leads, but anyone who gives feedback to coworkers, trains new staff or wants to grow into a leadership role can use it.
Is GROW the only coaching model?
No. GROW (Goal, Reality, Options, Way forward) is one common, simple model. The course uses it because it is easy to remember and works for short workplace conversations.
Does this course replace my employer's HR or discipline process?
No. Harassment complaints, discipline and human rights issues have set steps. Always follow your employer's policies and talk to your manager or human resources when you are unsure.
Czy zaświadczenie jest akredytowane lub oficjalnie uznawane?
Nie. To prywatne zaświadczenie o ukończeniu, wyłącznie dla Twojej wiedzy. Nie jest uznawane, akredytowane ani zatwierdzone przez żaden rząd, organ licencyjny, regulatora ani instytucję edukacyjną i nie zastępuje żadnej licencji, certyfikacji ani szkolenia wymaganych przez prawo.
