The ability to coach student teachers in the educational environment is a key competency for every teacher. The purpose of the current research is to design and validate the coaching model based on the selection theory in the university. This research is of a mixed sequential type with a database strategy and contextualization method. In the qualitative part, university professors were selected according to theoretical saturation with a purposive sampling method (N = 3) and for the validation of the questionnaire according to Cochran's formula, an exploratory sample of 360 student teachers of Farhangian University was used and a multi-stage sampling method was used. Also, in the quantitative part, for the effectiveness of the model, the training package derived from the coaching model was determined on 44 people, who were randomly selected, and assigned to two experimental and control groups. The research instrument in the qualitative part were semi-structured interviews and the researcher-made questionnaire in the quantitative part. In the quantitative part, the organizational commitment questionnaire of Alan & Meyers (1991) and the coaching method were implemented during 10 sessions of 90 minutes. The method of data analysis in the qualitative part was open, central and selective coding by MAXQD software and thematic analysis approach. Also, exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was used for the reliability of the questionnaire and model. In the quantitative part of this research, it was a semi-experimental pre-test-post-test type with a control group and a follow-up phase. The results showed that the coaching model includes two dimensions of personal coaching and educational coaching, 7 main components including self-discovery, intelligent goal setting, searching and persistence in work, relationship building, education and creating knowledge, environment, effectiveness and influence, and 35 indicators were presented as a coaching model. The results showed that coaching is effective in increasing the level of organizational commitment of student teachers and is stable over time.
