Yet, the design and purpose of these programmes vary significantly across different institutions. This integrative review will systematically synthesise the literature on coaching programmes, focusing on structural characteristics, goals and educational strategies. Methods and analysis A comprehensive literature review will be conducted using Whittemore and Knafl\u2019s integrative review methodology. The search strategy includes the following electronic databases: MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, ERIC, Education Research Complete, supplemented by a hand search. Two reviewers will independently screen all retrieved records, and study selection will be documented in a PRISMA flowchart. Data will be extracted from eligible full texts on descriptive metadata, structural characteristics, goals and educational strategies of the described coaching programmes. The quality of the included studies will be appraised using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool for empirical studies and the JBI Checklist for Text and Opinion for non-empirical studies. Extracted data will be analysed descriptively and thematically and integrated into a framework that can serve future programme development. Ethics and dissemination As this review is based exclusively on secondary data, no ethical approval is required. The results of the review will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal and presented at an academic conference.
