Resources for Coaches
A Peer Coach is someone who has been certified/accredited after demonstrating competency as a peer coach using the IY coaching methods and processes.
This section is for people who are peer coaches working with parents. Included here are training protocols, forms, and measures for peer coaches. Only those who have purchased the Incredible Years® programs have permission to use and distribute these materials. See also Certification section.

Coaches, did you know we have a video with Parent Group Leader Training video clips available? These are videos filmed during a 3 day training led by Carolyn Webster-Stratton, intended to help remind leaders of concepts learned in the training and further their understanding. This is a great tool to help group leaders as they begin to implement groups. Check out the “Parent Group Leader Workshop Training Samples”!
Maintaining Fidelity after Accreditation/Certification
In order to assure that accredited Peer Coaches continue to deliver with fidelity, we highly recommend the following:
-Accredited Peer Coaches should continue to lead groups (lead at least one group every 18 months)
-Accredited Peer Coaches should participate in a fidelity check every 12-18 months: this could be a coaching session with an accredited Mentor/Trainer, a video review of a coaching session by a Mentor or Trainer from the Incredible Years office, an in-person consultation day, or Skype consultation calls with a certified Mentor.
Even expert Peer Coaches benefit from on-going feedback and discussions about their work. Without fidelity checks, it is easy for coaches to drift from the original model. Ongoing consultation is also a chance for coaches to hear about new materials or innovations to the programs.
