Why do coach training course vary so much in length?

Simply put because of what they are intending you to get out of them. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to realise that a 2 day weekend coaching training will not be giving you a full coaching skill set along with depth of practice, context of knowledge and how to apply it.

Many trainings are not really intending to prepare you for skilful coaching but rather are introducing you to the whole process of it. And that is fine if that is made clear. Beware training programmes that don’t make this clear.
