    A NOTE ON CREDENTIALS

    The accreditation matters. The trainer matters more.

    Learn directly from one of Asia's Top ICF MCC, NLP Master Trainer, Licensed Neuro-Semantics Trainer, and EI Master Trainer.

    FAQs

    About ICF - International Coaching Federation

    The International Coaching Federation (ICF) is the world' s largest organization dedicated to coaching and coaches, promoting the profession by establishing high standards, providing independent certification, and building a global network of qualified coaches.

    ICF offers a globally recognized, independent credentialing program for coaches. Professional coaches who have met rigorous academic and experience standards and demonstrated a thorough comprehension of coaching skills are awarded ICF Credentials.

    Coach-specific training programs are also accredited by the ICF. Accredited programs go through a rigorous review process and must show that their curriculum fits with the ICF Core Competencies and Code of Ethics.

    ICF definition of Coaching

    ICF defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. The process of coaching often unlocks previously untapped sources of imagination, productivity and leadership.

    ICF Credentials

    The ICF offers three levels of credentialing based on coaching hours:

    1. Associate Certified Coach (ACC) - 100 coaching hours
    2. Professional Certified Coach (PCC) - 500 coaching hours
    3. Master Certified Coach (MCC) - 2, 500 coaching hours

    To earn a credential you must complete the required hours of coach-specific training from an ICF accredited program and 10 hours with a Mentor Coach. ACC candidates take the ICF ACC Credential Exam; PCC and MCC candidates take the ICF Credentialing Exam - both are proctored, computer-based exams based on the ICF Core Competencies and Code of Ethics.

    Your ICF credential is valid for three years; to renew it, you must complete 10 hours of Mentor Coaching and 40 hours of continuing education.

    Requirements - ICF Level 1 ACC Pathway
    • At least 60 hours of coach-specific training through an ICF Level 1 program.
    • At least 100 hours of real client coaching experience, gained after starting your coach-specific training - at least 25 of these hours must fall within the 18 months prior to applying.
    • 10 hours of Mentor Coaching with an eligible mentor coach, spanning a minimum of three months.
    • A performance evaluation of your coaching, plus completion of the ICF ACC Credential Exam, which assesses your grasp of the ICF Core Competencies and Code of Ethics.
    • Requirements are set and updated by ICF directly - always confirm the current details on the official ICF website before relying on any third-party summary, including this one.
    ICF Core Competencies

    The ICF Core Competencies support a shared understanding of the skills and approaches used in today's coaching profession, and form the foundation of the Coach Knowledge Assessment (CKA). They' re grouped into four domains - none weighted above another - all core and critical for any competent coach to demonstrate.

    Why earn an ICF Credential?

    ICF Credential-holders are part of a self-regulating group of elite coaches who provide accountability to clients and the coaching profession as a whole - completing rigorous education and practice requirements.

    Coaching is one of the fastest-growing professions, and is currently unregulated - anyone can call themselves a coach. An ICF credential sets you apart and shows your commitment to your own professional development.

    It can also help you charge higher rates, attract more serious clients, secure corporate contracts, and increase referrals and client satisfaction.

    ICF Credential Exams

    Once a participant finishes the required ICF training hours, mentoring, and coaching experience, they file an application with ICF. Once approved, ACC candidates take the ICF ACC Credential Exam, while PCC and MCC candidates take the ICF Credentialing Exam - both proctored, computer-based exams assessing understanding of the ICF definition of coaching, Core Competencies, and Code of Ethics.

    Requirements - ICF Level 2 PCC Pathway
    • Completion of an ICF-accredited Level 2 coach training program, covering the required 125 hours of coach-specific education.
    • At least 500 hours of coaching experience with real clients, gained after starting your coach-specific training.
    • 10 hours of Mentor Coaching with an eligible mentor, spanning a minimum of three months.
    • A performance evaluation and completion of the ICF Credentialing Exam, which assesses your grasp of the ICF Core Competencies and Code of Ethics.
    • Requirements are set and updated by ICF directly - always confirm the current details on the official ICF website before relying on any third-party summary, including this one.
