PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Add Certified Coaching to your professional portfolio, becoming an expert in your field or improving your career prospects.

This is a popular course with managers, team leaders, human resource professionals, teachers, or anyone in a position of guiding and supporting others in their growth within an organization.

You will graduate with the coaching skills and knowledge to

  • Implement change and manage workplace relationships
  • Navigate uncertainty or lead teams through turbulent times
  • Reframe a perspective using 'FlipIt' framework
  • Improve team cohesiveness and productivity
  • Increase employee development, satisfaction and retention

We specialise in the application of knowledge.

Our students arrive with an existing wealth of experience and knowledge. Our job is to provide them with a curriculum that is challenging and engaging and one that equips them to coach anyone, anywhere in the world.

Lifetime Membership to CoachCampus

The status of alumni is a testament to your hard work, beliefs, and coaching expertise. Graduation marks a point in time where you are certified and can enter the coaching industry as a Professional Coach. But this isn't where your ICA connection ends. Your ICA Certification aligns you with the International Coach Academy (ICA) brand; a brand with over 20 years industry credibility and your affiliation is lifelong.  Alumni members also enjoy ongoing co-branding, networking, volunteer and learning opportunities to help grow your coaching confidence and business.

CLASSES IN ALL TIME ZONES

Our programs are delivered via e-learning

  • A school with 20+ years e-learning & industry credibility
  • Internationally recognised Certification (PCC accredited education)
  • Morning, afternoon, evening & weekend classes (fast track or take your time)
  • Linear (structured) or intuitive (flexible) study pathways
  • Peer Coaching and real life industry experience while you study
  • Lifetime membership with ongoing peer and faculty support

Our training is designed with adult learners in mind. It is flexible, taught by real world practitioners and aims to provide tangible value. It is also designed to cater to diverse cultural and educational learning styles. You can fast track, or take your time.

What is Linear vs Intuitive Learning

This program includes a set number of training hours but there’s flexibility within the structure.  You can either take classes sequentially (one after the other) as shown in your graduation checklist, or you can take them in an order that best suits your learning.

What does it mean to fast track?

Take Your Time: If you are wanting to take your time you would attend 1 class a week (any 1 of the shown times).  You work the classes in around your own personal schedule.

Fast Track: If you are wanting to fast track you would attend at least 3 classes a week on a regular basis.  This will require you to have some flexibility with your own schedule.

Who will be in my cohort?

ICA has ongoing intakes with new students joining each month.

But, unlike traditional cohort learning, where you are restricted to an allocated group with a set start and end date, you get to choose which group you join.  The commonality might be language, country or even niche.  You also have the option to create your own group.

In summary, you get to choose the people you would like to learn and connect with, and there’s students in over 126 countries also wanting to share and collaborate.

What days and times are classes scheduled

Classes and labs are scheduled across all time zones, with at least 6 options in each time zone each week (for 52 weeks of the year).  These times will include at least 1 morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend class or lab.

Is there a learning guarantee?

Enrollment in a Coach Training program is a commitment to both yourself and International Coach Academy. If within 45 days you have not found value in your learning then you can apply for a refund (less administrative fee) and have your attended classes and labs certified by ICA.   Read More
