Program Impact Highlights:

• Coaches who completed the Group Coaching Certificate Program (GCCP) reported noticeable improvements in their skills across multiple core competencies.

• Participants led by GCCP-trained coaches attended more sessions, stayed in the program longer, and were more likely to achieve risk-reduction milestones than those whose coaches had not participated in the training.

• Focus group findings revealed that coaches had a positive overall experience, felt more confident in their coaching abilities, and appreciated the training’s flexible schedule.

• These outcomes underscore the value of the GCCP as a meaningful way to enhance coaching quality and support participant success in the National DPP Lifestyle Change Program.
