In Module 4 you are introduced to the concept of Tripods (groups of 3 students). You will arrange to meet with your Tripod for a minimum of 6 sessions. These will be recorded in your Tripod Log, along with your reflections on each session. The Tripod Log can be located in the Student Resource Centre and is due in at the end of Pillar 3, after Module 18.

You will need to find a total of 6-8 volunteers to work with in Pillars 1, 3 and 4 of the course (you may use the same volunteers for your coaching supervisions as one of your Pillars 3 and 4 case studies).

​In addition to the Course-wide Requirements, there are requirements to be met in each Pillar so that you can progress to the next Pillar and, ultimately, graduate the course.
