Worldwide Performance Coach Training for Leadership

Coaching Accreditation

Our coaching and mentoring courses are accredited by the Association for Coaching and the ILM.

All candidates who have successfully completed a coaching course with us, whether inhouse or open, received a CfPAC certificate and are eligible to undertake coach accreditation with the Association for Coaching, which demands additional criteria and has to be separately applied for.

At extra cost ILM Recognised, Level 5, Level 7 and Level 7 Diploma credentials are available.

Undertaking an additional module qualifies candidates to apply for ICF coach accreditation and Association for Coaching Master Coach accreditation, both of which demand additional criteria and have to be separately applied for.

Please read on for further details about accreditation options.
