The coaching profession is a fairly new profession. With any new profession it is really important to set standards. At the start of 2001 we decided that providing a coach training program that was accredited was critical to the success of the profession. When you complete your training at ICA you receive a certificate from ICA along with the recognition that you have completed a course that was accredited with the International Coach Federation (ICF). The ICF have been responsible for setting the standards for coaching.

To become accredited means we had to meet many requirements to ensure we were achieving the standards of coaching in our training. At ICA we feel it is important to ensure that our program is rigorous and the result is that we have trained the best coaches around the world. At ICA you will really learn how to coach and what it is like to be coached.

So to choose our program means you value high standards of training, the importance of being certified and you want to know how coaching is occuring all around the world.

At ICA we offer you the Certified Professional Coach Training Program (CPCP). This is our top of the range, accredited program. On completion of this program you will be certified as one of our professional coaches. We have had many trainers listen to our coaches, some trainers who trained at other schools. All trainers conclude that people who train at ICA are the best coaches they have ever heard. So if you want to be the best coach you can be then the CPCP is the right program for you.

We also offer the Associate Certified Coach Training Program (ACCP). This program is a great start to understanding coaching. If you are wanting to see what coaching is all about then this is the course for you. If you decide that you want to move up to the CPCP then this is also possible.

Does coaching, in another culture, impact the way you coach?
This is a part of your training. You will hear how other coaches are coaching in different countries all around the world.

Will I be highly skilled as a coach on completion of my training?
Nearing the end of your training you will participate in a supervised coaching group. This is where a highly credentialed trainer listens to you coaching one of your clients. You also get to listen to a small group of your peers coach as well. It is a very enriching learning experience that is all delivered in a very safe trusting learning environment.

How will I get clients?
Part of your program requires that you must have done at least 60 hours of coaching by the time you complete your training. In addition you must also participate in a business mentor group that supports you in determining what is the next business step you need to take to grow your business. If you are deciding to coach in a company then the Business Mentoring Group will support you in getting started with this.
