Edge Foundation is pleased to have Jodi Sleeper-Triplett leading our coach training sessions. Jodi was the first person to offer training courses specifically designed for coaching youth with ADHD. With the Edge Foundation, Jodi has provided the field invaluable leadership by designing training that ensures consistent use of protocols to provide coaches with the necessary skills and tools to coach students and young adults who have ADHD.
Jodi Sleeper-Triplett brings over 20 years of experience working with youth and 12 years focused on coaching youth with ADHD. She is in a unique position to know the intricacies of the coaching process that create success with younger clients.

The Edge Foundation training certification is designed to provide a full complement of skills to life coaches passionate about creating success with young clients, one step at a time.

I have taken Jodi’s course and found it to be exactly the training necessay to help those students who struggle with disorganization, priority setting and distraction issues. As a retired teacher I was tutoring kids with ADHD and learning disabilities in the Toronto area. I could get these students back to grade level but there was nothing in place to hold their improvements. Coaching is the the answer. Since completing Jodi’s coaching training I have been able to support the students in the areas that will sustain their academic gains.
As a leader Jodi is orgainized, knowledgeable and able to cut through verbal clutter to articulate the core issues. If you are considering taking a course with Jodi your time will be rewarded.
