Are you looking to become ICF certified, renew
your existing coaching credential or move up to
your next level of accreditation?
Our ICF Credentialing Made Easy™
mentoring program fully supports credentialing candidates to build
their coaching skills, further develop mastery in the ICF competencies
and emerge superbly positioned to pass the credentialing exam
with presence and confidence.
-
Do you know the steps needed to fulfill the requirements of ICF certification?
-
Is the thought of managing this task overwhelming, given everything else on your plate?
-
Do you have the time and organizational skills to get through the cumbersome maze of paperwork?
-
How confident are you that your coach training has prepared you to demonstrate all eleven competencies as the ICF would like to hear them?
-
AND WHAT ABOUT YOUR BLIND SPOTS?
Why does this matter? Because not everyone passes on their first attempt, due to the challenge of maintaining your presence while under enormous performance pressure in the recorded session.
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
The ICF Credentialing Made Easy™ Mentoring is ideal for you if you:
-
Need 10 (or fewer) mentor hours to meet the requirements for the ACC, PCC, or MCC credential applications.
-
Are renewing your credential and need mentor hours to meet renewal requirements.
-
Want an objective assessment and personalized 1:1 mentoring from an experienced MCC to sharpen your skills against the ICF Core Competencies.
WHY DOES BEING CREDENTIALED MATTER?
Deepening your ability to apply the core competencies is every bit as important as being able to add the ICF designation after your name. Equally as important is the self-confidence that comes from deepening your capacity to coach others. The confidence alone yields better results for your clients.
In a recent ICF study, 84% of respondents who had engaged in a professional coaching relationship said it was “somewhat to very important” for their coach to have credentials.
NEED MORE REASONS?
As a credentialed coach, you will have greater opportunity to make an impact on the lives and careers of more people and be compensated at a higher level for doing that. All of which leads to the freedom to live on purpose, making money doing what you love.
THE TOP 3 BENEFITS OF BEING CREDENTIALED:
-
Earn higher than average annual incomes
-
Increased number of referrals and greater client satisfaction
-
Have more opportunities for coaching
What does that mean to you?
​
The sooner you receive your accreditation, the sooner you can secure the type of clients you really want – those who value someone who has submitted themselves to rigorous study and subscribe to a Code of Ethics. Both are really important in today’s world, especially if you coach in an organization. Being credentialed by ICF establishes, without a doubt, that you are professional.
​
For you, having a credential means that you are more skilled and as a result, can deliver faster and better results for your clients, leading to more referrals. For the entrepreneurial coach, this means increased revenue, which translates to financial freedom as you build a more sustainable business with consistent income year after year, so you won't have to go back to your “day job”.
Who should you select to mentor you to pass the exam?
​
Now that you are clear on the benefits of becoming credentialed, you want to choose both the right mentor coach and the right credentialing program for you. Your choice should be based on the mentor’s level of coaching expertise, their track record, and ability to educate other coaches, as well as the comprehensiveness of the services provided in their program. Remember, you want someone who will TEACH you to become a better coach – not just someone to help you pass the exam.
Unfortunately, if you are not prepared, you won’t know until after ICF has listened to your recording and If you don't see where you fall short before-hand and you don’t pass, you have to redo part of the process. As your mentor, Paulette Rao helps you see and correct any blind spots before you submit your recorded session by assessing your practice recordings and giving you detailed feedback to improve before you pull the trigger on your application. You save time and money not to mention forego the frustration and embarrassment of not hitting the mark.
Equally as important, you want your mentor to be someone:
-
you are comfortable being open and vulnerable with
-
whom you trust to deliver results, and
-
who has a proven track record for educating coaches
99% of our clients have passed their credentialing exam the first time
because they committed to learning from me how to best demonstrate the core competencies.
