PositivePsychology.com: Emotional Intelligence X©

Course program

Emotional Intelligence X© by PositivePsychology.com is a ready-made 8-session training template built for practitioners who want to teach science-based emotional intelligence to their own clients, students, or teams. Rather than a course you attend, it is a complete toolkit — coaching manual, participant workbook, video lessons, and presentation slides — that you deliver under your own brand.

This is for helping professionals such as coaches, therapists, HR managers, organizational development specialists, consultants, teachers, and leadership trainers who already work with clients or groups and want a structured, evidence-based emotional intelligence program to run with them. No prior emotional intelligence expertise is required.

The curriculum is built around eight sessions. Session one introduces the Sailboat Metaphor, a framework for human functioning and emotional intelligence. Session two defines emotions and the five EI building blocks. Session three explores the connection between attention, emotions, and communication through emotional awareness work.

The middle sessions go deeper. Session four looks at beliefs about emotions and unhelpful thinking patterns. Session five frames emotions as data — signals about needs and values. Session six covers practical emotion regulation strategies. Session seven focuses on healthy emotional expression.

The final session helps participants build their own Emotional Intelligence Plan for ongoing practice. Alongside the core content, the package includes a Train-the-Trainer course, a Sailboat Metaphor Quickstart Guide, participant intake forms, a certificate template, and recommended books, articles, and videos.

The format is self-paced and fully digital. You download the materials and work through the Train-the-Trainer content, then deliver the 8-session program to your own participants however you choose — 1:1 coaching, group workshops, online, hybrid, or in-person. You receive lifetime access and updates, plus white-label rights to customize and rebrand the materials for your practice. A 7-day refund policy is available after purchase.
