ICF Certification

When coaching credentials matter, ICF accreditation leads the way.

ICF Certification

The International Coaching Federation (ICF) is the largest accrediting body for institutional executive coaching programs. It requires coach training programs to go through a rigorous application and accreditation process, resulting in programs that are recognized throughout the coaching industry as well as by those who hire coaches. Increasingly, individuals and companies that hire executive coaches are requiring that they have graduated from an ICF-accredited program and have obtained an additional individual credential from the ICF.
