The latest edition of the International Coaching Psychology Review includes an international debate around the agenda for teaching coaching psychology. The discussion starts with a paper from Dr Anthony Grant, of the Coaching Psychology Unit at the University of Sydney, who offers thoughts on how coaching psychology should be taught based on research so far. There follows a response to Anthony's paper from colleagues in the field, including Dr Michael Cavanagh, Prof Stephen Palmer, Dr Angela Hetherington, Dr Jonathan Palmer, and others. Finally Anthony Grant provides a further response to comments from the field.
