Course Overview

The ILM Level 5 “Effective Coaching and Mentoring” programme is a comprehensive course that spans two 2-day modules, scheduled 6-8 weeks apart. Accredited by the Institute of Leadership and Management, it provides ongoing tutorial and supervision support to ensure continuous professional growth. Widely applicable across various sectors, especially healthcare, it empowers organisations to integrate coaching and mentoring practices into their infrastructure. Research indicates that businesses see significant ROI (up to 700%) from these programmes, boosting engagement, performance, and well-being.

Testimonials

An enjoyable and transformational experience that felt highly relevant to my current role. I will be able to apply the learning directly into my day-to-day work. The course was well delivered, and Helen created the right level of stretch and challenge throughout. I would absolutely recommend this to colleagues.

CMI Level 7 Course Attendee - NHS England

I really enjoyed the course content, even areas I was already familiar with, as it added new depth and perspective. The in-person format made a huge difference, particularly for group work and authentic discussion. I would definitely complete further courses with Convenzis and recommend this programme to others.

CMI Level 7 Course Attendee - Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (LTHT)

A great balance between personal reflection and stretching your thinking, alongside considering leadership at a wider, strategic level. The facilitation was confident, engaging and built trust early, which made group interactions particularly valuable. Even having covered some of the content before, the blend of personal and strategic focus made this highly applicable in practice.

CMI Level 7 Course Attendee - Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

The content was clear, engaging and easy to digest, with a strong focus on personal development rather than just theory. It was a very eye-opening and therapeutic experience. Helen delivered the course wonderfully. Additional clarity around the post-course assignment would be helpful, but overall this was a highly valuable and personalised learning experience.

CMI Level 7 Course Attendee - NHS

An excellent programme that really challenged our thinking and provided insights I hadn’t previously considered. Helen created a safe, open environment that allowed for honest reflection and meaningful discussion. I would absolutely recommend it – having the time and space to think in this way is incredibly valuable.

CMI Level 7 Course Attendee - Barking, Havering and Redbridge NHS Trust

This course was more emotional than expected, but in a really positive way. It created an opportunity to connect with others and reflect on my own communication and leadership style to improve outcomes for both my team and projects. Helen was kind, clear and supportive throughout. It is a very worthwhile experience for managers.

CMI Level 7 Course Attendee - Dorset County Hospital

The content is highly relevant to healthcare, with a wide range of tools to support leadership, particularly around self-awareness and emotional intelligence. Helen is an exceptional coach – this went far beyond a traditional course, creating space for deep reflection and real personal growth in just a few days. I would strongly encourage organisations to invest the time and funding for their leaders to attend.

CMI Level 7 Course Attendee - The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust

A very informative course with a range of models and frameworks to take away and explore further. Helen was brilliant – engaging, knowledgeable and highly supportive throughout. This course teaches you a huge amount about yourself and how to show up as your best self as a leader.

CMI Level 7 Course Attendee - Mersey West Lancashire NHS Teaching Hospitals

The course content was well balanced and thoughtfully structured, particularly the way it was split across self, organisation and the wider system – this made it easy to digest and apply. I really valued the mix of delivery styles, from teaching to group work and self-reflection. Be prepared to explore your own abilities and capabilities in depth.

CMI Level 7 Course Attendee - Channel Health Alliance

A very well-structured programme that really lends itself to the topic. Helen was incredibly accommodating and supportive throughout, helping us fully understand the content and apply it in practice. I would absolutely recommend this course to others.
