There are two ways to qualify for the program. The first is to have completed Phase 1 - Core Essentials. You may enroll as soon as all requirements have been met for these programs.
The second is to be an individual who has a minimum certification of ACC by the ICF or who have completed an ACSTH or Level 1 training program. Our Phase 2 - Professional Essentials Transfer is appropriate for individuals who wish to continue their training at Coach U. Transfer students will need to verify their credentials, take an entrance exam ($375 USD), and complete prerequisite coursework.
Professional Essentials provides 72 hours of training. You will receive a majority of those hours during the intensive days of the Intensive. However, there are also pre- and post-coursework completion requirements, including two practicums and a choice of electives. Thus, we give students up to 6 months to complete the training requirements.
Once participants complete all requirements for PE graduation, you will be able to apply to receive your Coach U Certified Graduate, which is a stepping stone to the ICF’s Professional Certified Coach.
