Global Coaching Conference - Unique Experiences

GLOBAL COACHING CONFERENCE

The Global Coaching Conference is an incredible opportunity for LLS students to network together, meet global employers, impress employers during practical coaching sessions and secure the coaching job of a lifetime in countries located all over the world.

With a varied and select group of employers in attendance, you can expect to choose between coaching abroad in countries such as USA, Canada, China, Qatar, Ireland and more.

There are global employment opportunities at the GCC that cannot be found anywhere else, and our GCC event is exclusively for our students.

Students who coach abroad will typically go for up to three months, but more than likely will return the following year or even be offered a more permanent position and the opportunity to live and work abroad for much longer.
