While we match other ICF coaching programs that offer training in the core competencies that the ICF requires, our training goes far beyond.

It takes 6 to 9 months to complete the program, depending on whether you attend our in-person seminar. You attend any of our three live one-hour teleclasses that we have each week. Each call stands on its own. If you miss one, jump on the next. The ten hours of mentor coaching required by the ICF also takes place by teleclass, and is offered every quarter. It is led by Sheri Boone, MCC, who specializes in mentor coaching and knows the ICF core competency markers cold. We also match you up with fellow participants to help you complete the coaching hours required by the ICF.
