Coaching Essentials Certification

This is a pilot version of the Coaching Essentials Certification. It has been designed in alignment with the International Coaching Federation (ICF) Core Competencies and has achieved provisional certification for the ICF Level 1 accreditation.

By joining with the provisional certification, you –

  • Gain early access to the training,
  • Benefit from smaller group sizes and extra interaction,
  • Have the opportunity to shape the program with your feedforward, and
  • Receive provisional pricing (not to be repeated) as one of the first participants.

This program is designed for professionals who want to strengthen their coaching skills and explore the pathway into professional coaching. It is a great fit if you are –

  • An aspiring coach beginning your journey toward ICF accreditation,
  • A tennis coach or athlete ready to grow, evolve, and add a new dimension to your work and life,
  • A leader, manager, or HR professional looking to integrate coaching skills into your role, or
  • A consultant, educator, or facilitator who wants to deepen your ability to create growth-focused conversations.

The International Coach Federation (ICF) refers to coaching as –

“partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximise their personal and professional potential.”
