Statistical data shows that more than 30% of engineering students drop out in their first year which is not congruent with their academic ability. A unique Personal-Academic Coaching Program for promoting students’ learning and self-management skills, self-efficacy and academic achievements for decreasing learning failures and dropping out was developed.The coaches are college especially trained lecturers.This article discusses the theories underpinning the Personal-Academic Coaching Model (Kedem, 2006) based on Positive Psychology (Seligman, 2007, ), Humanistic Psychology (Rogers, 1951) and Self-Efficacy Theory (Bandura, 1997).The research examines the influence of personal academic coaching on self-efficacy, learning strategies and students’ achievements.
