The Doctor of Coaching and Mentoring (DCM) fosters excellence in professional practice by developing the capabilities you need to become a leader in the field. You will be challenged to augment your existing expertise and to push the boundaries of your knowledge and understanding, so that you may operate at the highest level, be confident in providing facilitation and consultancy, and be competent in research and evaluation.
The DCM is a part-time programme aimed at experienced professionals who are seeking to extend and deepen their knowledge and understanding of coaching and mentoring. Typical participants include coaching psychologists, freelance coaches and consultants, mentor co-ordinators, counsellors, senior managers and HRD or leadership professionals from a range of public and private sector organisations.

Teaching, learning and assessment
The DCM is cross-disciplinary in its approach: as well as focusing on your own professional development through reflective practice and individual, peer and group learning activities, you consider, in depth, the pivotal organisational and psychological dimensions of coaching and mentoring.
Course length
Part-time: 3 to 5 years
The programme has two stages. During the first stage, which normally takes two years to complete on a part-time basis, you focus on the taught components of the curriculum. Once this is successfully completed, you move to the second stage: the thesis. Normally this takes three years to complete part-time. The programme integrates professional expertise and scholarly inquiry and culminates in doctoral research training and the design of original empirical research that leads to the completion of a doctoral thesis.
The course is designed as a five-year part-time programme (or three years with M-level exemptions), delivered through monthly study days held in Oxford (approx eight per year). In addition there are regular online workshops and discussions to support learning at a distance. There is individual coaching and academic support (face-to-face, telephone and email as appropriate) and assessment is through a variety of coursework assignments and a thesis, which is examined by traditional viva voce (oral examination).
The Doctor of Coaching and Mentoring thus provides the setting for you to gain deeper, more critical insights into professional practices and concerns and to become an autonomous, published researcher.
