Setting Industry Standards
Before the NLSC, few guidelines existed for life skills instructors and life coaching professionals. While some general standards had been specified for instructor qualifications, guidelines for learners across age groups had yet to be developed. The NLSC bridged this gap.
Alongside a team of professionals – including those with expertise in traditional education, financial education, and psychology – the NLSC created standards for both the instructors delivering life skills education and their learners.
