ICF Membership Changing for Coaches<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The International Coaching Federation, ICF, is the leader in the coaching industry.\u00a0 The ICF publishes a Code of Ethics for coaches (taught in the Center for Coaching Certification<\/a> class for becoming a Certified Professional Coach<\/a>, CPC).\u00a0 The ICF provides detailed information on the Core Competencies for coaches.\u00a0 As a professional membership organization, the ICF is working for a cohesive, collaborative standard in the coaching industry.\u00a0 Whether the coaching industry self-regulates or becomes government regulated, the ICF is at the forefront.<\/p>\n

The International Coaching Federation (www.CoachFederation.org<\/a>) is in the process of changing the membership requirements.\u00a0 Effective April 1, 2012, 60 hours of coach specific training will be a requirement for membership as a coach.\u00a0 If you are a member before that time and have less than 60 hours, your membership becomes provisional until you complete 60 hours of training, or complete the training and coaching requirements to become an ACC, PCC, or MCC.<\/p>\n

The Center for Coaching Certification program to earn the CPC<\/a> designation is geared for experienced, busy professionals and provides 30 hours of ICF-approved coach specific training.\u00a0 The Certified Master Coach<\/a> program is an additional 30 hours of training so that the two combined provide the 60 hours necessary for the ICF membership.<\/p>\n
