Begin a Journey of Healing and Empowerment — Guide Others Through Grief with Faith and Understanding


Introducing 

Christian Grief Coach featuring our C.O.M.F.O.R.T. Grief Coaching Model

Grief touches the heart in profound and unexpected ways. For those mourning a loss, the journey can feel isolating, a path shrouded in shadow and uncertainty. But imagine a world where each grieving soul encounters a beacon of hope and understanding, someone equipped to walk alongside them with empathy and faith. This vision is the heartbeat of our Christian Grief Coach certification course.

In the depths of grief, many struggle to find comfort and purpose through their sorrow. Traditional support mechanisms often overlook the deep spiritual and emotional nuances of Christian mourning, leaving a gap that yearns for the gentle touch of faith-based compassion.  The need is immense for skilled individuals who can navigate these tender waters with grace and wisdom, transforming grief into a journey of spiritual growth and healing.

Our Christian Grief Coach certification course bridges this gap, offering comprehensive training that melds biblical wisdom with practical coaching techniques. Participants learn to:

FAQ

  • How long will it take to complete the course?

    The home study certification courses are self-paced, giving you full flexibility. Since the home study option does not have a start or end date, completion time depends entirely on your personal discipline and schedule. Some students move through the material in just a few weeks, while others take several months to fully absorb and apply the lessons. The goal is progress, not pressure. Go at the pace that allows you to learn, grow, and let the Holy Spirit lead you through the process.

  • Are you accredited?

    Yes. HIScoach Training Academy is accredited by the CPD (Continuing Professional Development) Certification Service, which supports professionals in enhancing their skills and proficiency throughout their careers. This accreditation aligns with our mission to provide biblically grounded, high-quality training that equips faith-based coaches to serve with excellence both personally and professionally. As Scripture reminds us, “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.” — James 1:5, ESV “For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.” — Hebrews 4:12, ESV Let’s be clear — our ultimate standard comes from God’s Word. We believe the highest levels of ethics, honesty, and integrity flow from biblical principles. That’s why we encourage every student to prayerfully consider: Where will you be using your coaching skills? Who are you called to serve? What standards, principles, and worldview will guide your practice? We strongly encourage prayer before making any decision about training so that your learning aligns with God’s vision for your life and calling.

  • Can I enroll in the Home Study Program and later enroll in one of the other programs?

    Yes, absolutely. We understand that learning needs and preferences can change as you grow. If you begin with the Home Study (Self-Paced) Program and later decide you’d benefit from the community and interaction of a Virtual or Onsite Program, you can easily upgrade. All we ask is that you pay the difference between the two program options. For example, if you complete the Home Study Program in eight weeks and then choose to join a live group experience, you would simply pay the difference between the Home Study tuition and the Virtual or Onsite tuition. This flexibility allows you to learn at your own pace while still having the option to connect, engage, and grow with others when the time feels right.

  • Are you affiliated with a certain denomination?

    No, we are not affiliated with any specific denomination. The HIScoach Training Academy is a Christ-centered institution built on biblical truth and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Our mission is to equip Christian believers from all walks of life—regardless of church background or denomination—to serve, support, and coach others through the lens of God’s Word. We believe that what unites us is far greater than what separates us. Our focus is on developing (or rather, building) a community of Holy Spirit-led coaches who are committed to glorifying God, walking in love, and helping others grow in faith and purpose. At the heart of our academy is one foundation: Jesus Christ. We exist to help believers live out their calling with excellence, integrity, and compassion—reflecting His heart in all that they do.

  • Do you offer payment plans?

    Yes, we offer flexible payment plans for most certification programs and courses through 3rd party entities, i.e., Afterpay, Klarna, etc. Your options are shown at checkout. Our goal is to make high-quality, faith-based training accessible to everyone who feels called to coach. You can choose the plan that best fits your financial situation during enrollment.

  • After training, is there an actual certificate that students will receive?

    Yes. Upon successful completion of your course requirements, you will receive an official HIScoach Certification Certificate that verifies your training and completion through the HIScoach Training Academy. This certificate represents your accomplishment and your readiness to coach others from a Christ-centered foundation.

  • After taking the classes and becoming certified, would I need to take other classes or would I be ready to start coaching right away?

    Once you complete your certification, you are equipped and ready to begin coaching right away! The HIScoach Certification provides you with the biblical foundation, coaching framework, and practical tools needed to start working with clients immediately. Of course, ongoing learning is always encouraged. As you grow in experience and confidence, you may choose to pursue additional specialized certifications through the academy—such as Christian Life Purpose & Discovery Coach, Christian Self-Worth & Confidence Coach, or Christian Forgiveness Coach—to deepen your expertise and expand your impact.

  • What support do I receive after I complete the program?
