Frequently asked questions

Who is Providence Heights for?

Any woman seeking to redefine or discover her purpose. Women who go through our program have the opportunity to not only transform their personal lives through life coaching, but the chance to design and implement career goals that change circumstances for themselves and their families. Learn more about our application process.

What is the Providence Heights program and how does it work?

Providence Heights is a six-month virtual program focused on helping women deepen their faith, develop as leaders, and translate personal growth into professional joy. Our curriculum is taught by a team of credentialed life, career, and finance coaches that are aligned with our mission. See an overview of our curriculum.

Why is Providence Heights changing from a residential model?

Since piloting a first-of-its-kind program, we have learned a great deal as an organization. In order to scale our program and support more women, we have made the decision to launch a virtual program as of January 2024. Concurrently, we will work toward empowering local communities to have their own Providence Heights Program through an Affiliate Model. This new model will equip churches and organizations to help the people they serve through a residential program or an in-person non-residential program.

What does the virtual program look like?

Our virtual program will span across six months and split into three, eight week sessions dedicated to helping women develop personally, spiritually, and professionally. Classes and group coaching sessions will be facilitated online and take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays. One-on-one life coaching is scheduled between program participants and our coaching staff at a mutually agreed upon time. To foster community, we hold monthly chapel and host a quarterly community activity.

What does the curriculum consist of?

Our program is rooted in Christian faith and coaches teach from a biblically centered perspective. See an overview of our program curriculum.

What is the cost of the virtual program?

The cost to participate in our virtual program is $3,000 plus a one time $300 material and tech support fee for those seeking to take our both the Personal Development and Professional Development tracks. The cost of taking an individual track is $1,500 plus a $150 material and tech fee.

What is the time commitment for the new virtual program?

Our program curriculum requires a total of 8-10 hours per week, split between Tuesdays and Thursdays for both the Personal and Professional Tracks. If you will be doing Individual tracks, it will be less. This includes group curriculum as well as one-on-one coaching. See a breakdown of both the Personal and Professional tracks here.

Will one-on-one coaching still be available to program participants?

One-on-one coaching is still a critical part of our virtual program. Program participants will continue meeting with life and business coaches on a biweekly basis.

Is counseling still available through the program?

Counseling is highly encouraged but ultimately the responsibility of each participant.

Can men apply to the program?

Not at this time.

Can I pick and choose what classes I want to take?

We have dedicated the last two-and-a-half years to curating our program curriculum and it is most effective and impactful when taken as a set. However, to help alleviate the burden of the time commitment required and to broaden options, we are pleased to announce the option of two tracks: Personal and Professional. These tracks can be taken individually or together. Both options will still include group coaching, individual coaching, spiritual formation and community sessions. See both tracks here.

Is the program tuition refundable?

With limited spots available each quarter, once an applicant begins the program, we are no longer able to offer that spot to anyone else for that cohort. As a result, the program tuition is non-refundable.

Is there any financial assistance?

After years of research, we have learned that it’s important for women to be empowered and have ownership over their personal development. We've reduced the cost significantly and are grateful to the many donors who allow us to make our program more financially accessible. However, we also understand that there are unique cases. For those that wish to apply, but have a financial barrier, please contact us.
