The Institute of Refrigeration (IOR) has published its latest Education Guidance Note, looking at coaching as a way of employers supporting engineering and technician development.
IOR Member Mathew Noon, who drafted the Guidance Note, added: “Writing this was incredibly important to me because I’ve seen first-hand how powerful coaching can be. My own experience with coaching has played a key role in accelerating my career, helping me strengthen my skills, understand my blind spots, and grow with purpose. This guide shows how engaging with coaching can support professional development, improve communication and leadership, and help everyone unlock their full potential.”
IOR CEO Miriam Rodway added: “The IOR Education Committee has over the past few years produced a series of really useful tools to support the development of everyone working in the sector and improve continued professional development. They are continuing this work with even more guides being drafted and are planning an open meeting later this year to share this work and get feedback from members on what topics they want IOR to cover next.”
The IOR Education Guidance Notes cover a wide range of topics from skills specifications for technicians to how to become STEM ambassador registered. They are all free to download here.
