THE GOLD STANDARD OF PROFESSIONAL COACHING.

Anyone can call themselves a coach. But ICF-credentialed coaches are
professionals who have met stringent education and experience requirements, and
have demonstrated a thorough understanding of the coaching competencies that set
the standard in the profession. Additionally, they adhere to strict ethical
guidelines as part of ICF’s mission to protect and serve coaching consumers.


AVAILABLE NOW: ADVANCED CERTIFICATION IN TEAM COACHING 

ICF Credentials and Standards is now accepting applications for the ICF Advanced
Certification in Team Coaching (ACTC). This certification allows coach
practitioners to build upon their competence as an ICF Credential-holder (ACC,
PCC or MCC) and demonstrate their advanced knowledge, skills and abilities in
the specialized discipline of team coaching.

WHAT IS AN ICF CREDENTIAL?

An ICF Credential is a professional certification indicating that you have met
specific standards and requirements designed to develop and refine your coaching
skills. It is an indication that you are dedicated to upholding strong
principles of ethical behavior in coaching.  An ICF Credential shows your
clients and peers that you are committed to the coaching industry and to
developing yourself as a coaching professional.

Holding a credential – especially an ICF Credential – is extremely important to
today’s coaching clients. The 2022 Global Consumer Awareness Study found that
85% of coaching clients say it’s important or very important that their coach
holds a certification or credential. Earning an ICF Credential provides you with
instant credibility and increased visibility to prospective clients.

ICF offers three credentials, corresponding with the quantity of education and
experience required to earn it. The credentials are:

Associate Certified Coach (ACC) – Completed 60 hours of coach specific education
and 100 hours of client coaching experience

Professional Certified Coach (PCC) – Completed 125 hours of coach specific
education and 500 hours of client coaching experience

Master Certified Coach (MCC) – Hold or have held a PCC Credential, completed 200
hours of coach specific education and 2,500 hours of client coaching experience


WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO EARN A CREDENTIAL?

Earning an ICF Credential is a rigorous process that provides legitimacy and
credibility to Credential-holders. Each of the credentials (ACC, PCC and MCC)
requires the same five key components:


1. EDUCATION

Obtain coach-specific education aligned with the ICF definition of coaching, ICF
Core Competencies and ICF Code of Ethics. | Find ICF-accredited Education
| Review non-accredited Education Requirements


2. EXPERIENCE

Coaching experience hours must begin after you’ve started a coaching education
program.  | Review Experience Requirements


3. MENTOR COACHING

Receive mentor coaching to strengthen your skills within the ICF Core
Competencies. | Review Mentor Coaching Information


4. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION

Pass a performance evaluation(s) that assess your coaching skills against ICF
standards. | Review Performance Evaluation Details


5. EXAM

Pass a written exam designed to test your understanding of and ability to apply
the ICF definition of coaching, ICF Core Competencies and ICF Code of Ethics.  |
