Our Point Of Difference...
We'll help you identify your ideal client, and then create a coaching model that represents your passion, beliefs, values and purpose.
One of the elements of our training that we are most proud of is that we teach our students to create their own coaching model. Often a coaching school will teach or promote a coaching model that is based on the personal philosophy, passion or coaching model of the founder. So if the founder was a NLP coach then it's most likely the coaching model they teach has a heavy NLP foundation. But, at ICA we stay away from cookie cutter coaching models. Instead, as educators with expertise in adult learning principles, we teach the frameworks and theories that have influenced coaching such as cognitive behavioral therapy, appreciative inquiry, NLP, emotional intelligence and mindfulness. We look the background, how it intersects with coaching and how it can be blended with coaching
Certification and Credentials
The Certified Coach Program is an ICF accredited coach training program (ACTP) for coaches wanting to become an certified certified professional coach (CPC).
Graduates can either set up their own coaching practice, coach in organisations or blend coaching with their existing expertise.
We chose to align with the International Coaching Federation (ICF) because Coaching is a global profession and the ICF continues to be the most established and globally recognised peak body. Clients want to know they are employing someone who has been through a rigorous training and accreditation process.
What is Accreditation?
Accreditation indicates that a school has had their program undergo rigorous external scrutiny and quality testing by a peak body. The curriculum is mapped across core competencies, with the faculty, assessment and learning processes all assessed. Program accreditations at International Coach Academy include ACTP and ACSTH.
What is Certification
In the case of coach training, certification is a globally recognized statement of attainment that indicates you have been assessed by an Accredited Coach Training Provider as having the industry recognized skills and expertise required to practice as a coach.
What is a Credential?
With coaching, a credential designates a recognized level of expertise in coaching, as assessed by an industry peak body such as the ICF. This is represented by designations such as ACC, PCC or MCC.

When I decided to take up a Coaching Certification, I researched the Coaching Schools available. ICA stood out for a couple of reasons – flexibility of the class schedule, the testimonies of the students (present and ex) – the phrase ‘nurturing environment’ kept coming up! The clincher was when I spoke with a current student who told me how lovely it was being a student at ICA!
