"Western Seminary began working with The Columbia Partnership three years ago to develop the first seminary-based coaching program in the country designed to meet ICF standards. Our partners from TCP worked with us from initial design through course construction, launch, and now into refinement. They quickly grasped the expectations of a graduate level program and integrated their knowledge of professional coaching into the unique dynamics of a seminary environment. I have observed TCP's commitment and contribution to partnership in their flexibility, clear communication, open and honest interaction, and their ongoing effort at developing and deploying our internal strengths in the coaching realm. This last commitment is a testimony to their priority - a commitment to our internal strength and capacity to carry this program into the future. The result is a program that is now operating on all three of our campuses and is surpassing our original goals."

The Conference Center has been able through your investment of time and training to develop our Coaching Training Program. We embarked on this learning voyage with the intent of providing coaches for our Center for Excellence in Congregational Leadership. Your expertise and personal investment in our leaders has not only allowed us to meet our original goals of providing coaches, but we now have persons who have changed their ministry paths to become professional coaches. For some of those involved it has been a life changing event in which you helped them to discover their real ministry gifts and released them to do what God had gifted them to be. Thanks again for your sharing not only your gifts and talents but you love and concern.” Ken Giacoletto President, The Green Lake Conference Center, Wisconsin
