What Is InsideTrack Coaching?

InsideTrack Coaching is a highly effective solution that provides holistic, tailored support to individuals on their way to achieving their educational and career goals. Using our evidence-based, research-confirmed methodology, our coaches assess and address potential risk factors and opportunities to help individuals develop the knowledge, skills and beliefs they need to advance. 

Our equity-centered coaching model is designed to support all learners, empowering individuals to overcome barriers, harness the power of their own strengths and progress toward their full potential.

Holistic and personalized

Our relationship-based, multi-channel approach to coaching helps individuals assess their unique challenges in and outside of school, connect with their strengths and values to build motivation, and co-create a plan for achieving their goals. Coaches support learners in building confidence and purpose as they manage school, family, work and other commitments — all designed to promote lifelong success and transformation.

Human-powered and tech-enabled

Our strategic and scalable outreach approach delivers various levels of flexible support — from scheduled reminders to intensive one-on-one coaching sessions. Using our custom coaching platform, coaches connect with individuals in the ways that work best for them, whether that’s by phone, email, text or video chat. While technology enables our coaches to achieve broad reach and scale, our impact is always rooted in personalized, authentic connection and support.

Coaching for educational and career advancement

From colleges and universities to the workforce and beyond

With deep roots in higher education, we continue to coach students at community colleges, public and private universities, online programs and beyond. But that's just part of the story. We also provide coaching for local and national workforce boards, state work-related agencies and employer talent development.

Actionable learner insights for meaningful change

Coaching provides a way to track individual learner progress, while sharing overall pain points, blind spots and other opportunities institutions can address to enhance the support experience for both current and future learners.

The best coaches produce the best results

The standards for InsideTrack coaches are very high, with each coach undergoing a rigorous and formal training and certification process — resulting in strong skills and expertise.
