CSA Japan
Like its counterparts in CSA’s supervision training around the world, this rigorous 1-year programme centres on creating a lively professional partnership with coaches — one in which they can significantly develop their range and capabilities as both coach and supervisor, and return to their work resourced and stimulated. It is highly experiential in approach, while also being grounded in teaching, practice, and feedback in both classic and current supervision theories and models.
Celebrating our 10th Year, and our second Japanese Programme:
Since the Diploma was first accredited in 2005, CSA’s Faculty has grown steadily, enabling us to bring the programme to an international audience. With a strong team, it quickly established a valued place in the coaching supervision community across the Asia Pacific and Chinese region. Always adapting to new research and reflecting current thinking in the field, CSA continues to model the same ethos and high standards for learning.
Building on the huge success of the past 10 years in the Asia Pacific, we are delighted to offer our second Japanese cohort in 2026. This is an exciting opportunity for coaches, supervisors, and leaders to deepen their skills and practice by becoming accredited graduates of the CSA Diploma in Coaching Supervision.


CSA is delighted to have 'Approved Provider' status with ICF and our Diploma Program has been continuously Accredited with EMCC since 2005.
What Distinguishes Our Programme
What distinguishes the CSA Diploma programme is that in addition to a thorough training in classic supervision models, students will be trained in CSA’s Full Spectrum Model of Coaching Supervision.
The Full Spectrum Model incorporates Hawkins & Shohet’s 7-eyed model of Supervision together with core teaching and practice on the Use of Self in Supervision, multi-dimensional Presence work which utilizes the seminal ideas of Sharmer/Senge et al (TheoryU), work with subtle energies, Buddhist Psychology, and quantum physics – a living, relational perspective.
There is also teaching on Coaching Psychology and on Systems Thinking. This broad range ensures that the course is both challenging and holistic. Personal Development for Supervisors is foundational and attention is paid to bringing mature reflective practitioners into the profession.
