ECC has created an interactive and engaging online platform to support working parents and managers.

It is a scalable, global solution that helps people address their changing situation as parenting and work life coincide. This portal provides articles, videos and interactive exercises all geared to making the journey to becoming a working parent a fulfilling one on both the work and home front.

In response to the current crisis, Working Parents Online has been updated with some dedicated resources that address the special circumstances working parents and individuals may be facing during this challenging time.

Who is this for?

Working Parents Online is an interactive resource platform specially designed for those becoming new parents, managers and individuals who need access to supportive resources around the topic of parenting. The platform has been designed to be easy and intuitive to use with busy, time-poor working parents in mind.

Although a standalone resource, it works well in conjunction with our other parental transition coaching methods. In response to the current crisis, Working Parents Online has been updated with some dedicated resources that address the special circumstances working parents and individuals may be facing during this challenging time.

By providing working parents and managers with a virtual resource they can tap into whenever they need specialist support, organisations will be investing in retaining and supporting some of their key talent.
