Knowing what to do is one thing. Feeling confident enough to do it well? That’s where coaching transforms your learning.
At Aim Higher Training, we provide accredited qualifications that build practical skills and real-world competence. But we know that skills alone aren’t always enough to drive meaningful growth. That’s why we’ve partnered with Prodevuk Ltd, specialists in coaching and leadership development, to offer something more powerful:
Together we offer a combination of accredited training and professional coaching that helps learners build both competence and confidence.
This integrated approach is already making a significant difference for individuals and organisations ready to grow. By equipping team leaders and managers with knowledge and skills and embedding them through executive coaching managers become more able to deal with many of the current challenges in the post pandemic workplace.
What’s the Difference Between Coaching and Training?
Understanding the difference between coaching and training is key to getting the best from both.
- Training teaches the what and how: structured knowledge, tools, and processes to help you meet learning outcomes or earn qualifications.
- Coaching focuses on the why and who: building self-awareness, boosting confidence, and overcoming internal barriers.
When combined, training gives you the capability, and coaching helps you apply it effectively.
Together, they form a powerful formula for growth:
Competence + Confidence = Action
Common Confidence Blockers (and How Coaching Helps)
Even the most qualified professionals sometimes struggle with self-belief. Some of the most common confidence blockers we encounter include:
- Imposter Syndrome – “I’ve got the qualification, but I don’t feel ready.”
- Fear of Failure – Anxiety around making mistakes or being judged.
- Overwhelm – Feeling stuck or unsure where to begin.
- Struggling with Feedback – Finding it hard to take critique constructively.
Coaching provides a safe space to work through these challenges. With the support of a skilled coach, you can:
- Reframe limiting beliefs
- Build on your strengths
- Set focused, achievable goals
- Develop emotional resilience and self-awareness
This is the missing link for many learners, especially those stepping into new leadership roles or returning to work.
Why Blended Learning Gets Better Results
Blended learning combines accredited qualifications with coaching support. This creates a flexible, high-impact development journey where learners don’t just pass, they progress.
With Aim Higher’s blended approach, you can:

- Stay motivated throughout your qualification
- Strengthen both technical and soft skills
- Build lasting habits and leadership confidence

It’s ideal for professionals managing transitions, re-entering the workforce, or taking on more responsibility.

Case Study
“One of our learners, Sally has recently achieved her Level 3 Diploma in Management Knowledge and Skills. Sally was only occasionally stepping into a team leader role within her company but was offered the opportunity to develop her knowledge of management and learn how to apply this in her role. She was the first to admit that she lacked confidence and her knowledge of management theories and processes was limited.
“My assessor from Aim Higher Training has been absolutely brilliant every step of the way. She has been supportive and encouraging and when I did not believe in myself, my assessor did and encouraged me to
complete the course, because at times I did not think I could do it.
My confidence has grown massively and from doing this course I have now received a promotion within my
company to a Team Leader”.
