COACH TRAINING SCHEDULE
What would an average week look like?
It's different for everyone because we all have our own family and work schedules that we need to work around. For someone wanting to fast track their studies and complete in 6 to 9 months they would need to take 2 to 3 classes a week. Those wanting to take things a bit slower, and use up their full 18 months would only need to take 1 - 2 classes a week.
EXAMPLE WEEKLY SCHEDULE (based on fast track option)
Classes and Labs (3 hrs a week)
– Coach Skills Class
– Coach Development Lab
– Coaching Competency Lab…once you gain your confidence, you could add a Mentor Coaching Lab (or substitute one for a Coaching competency Lab)
Self Study (30 mins each week)
This includes connecting with your peers in the forum (reading and commenting on portfolios, finding a peer coach or offering to be a peer client) or preparing your course outcomes.
Peer Coaching (30 mins)
Either be the coach or be the client to make up your peer coaching hours.
* And of course this is flexible. It might be that one week you only do 1 class, and then 4 the next week. Or, you might do all your self study in one block at the end of the month instead of each week.
** For those wanting to self pace, the hours per week shown above would be reduced by half

We have many students who are technology shy and who have never used Skype and are not computer savvy. We offer support for students starting up including video training and a getting started live call. If you have never participated in a tele class, we have detailed tele class etiquette showing you what to expect. If you can use a telephone and open a web page, you will be able to participate in the coach training.
Our class calendar is available well in advance so you can plan your schedule. Classes are available for all time zones and include weekend options. This works well for students around the world and allows coach training to be accessible for those who travel.
Our programs are divided into modules. Each 60 minute class covers one module and they do not have to be taken in a particular sequence. This allows you to take as many or few classes each week as you wish.
Students connect to classes using zoom, and have the opportunity to dial in using audio, or using audio with video. But, the choice is yours.

The schedule is cyclical with at least 4 time options per week. That means that if you miss a class one week you can take it at another time the next week, or at the same time when it next appears on the schedule. The choice is yours.
There is no such thing as a missed class at ICA. Each week you decide how many classes you wish to take. You could take one this week and four next week. If something unexpected arises it's not a problem.
Which Program to Choose?
When choosing a program it's important to consider how you would like to learn (which might be different to how you have learnt before), what pathway options are available to for further study or credentialing, program value for money, and how the program will fit your lifestyle. To help you make these key decisions, we've shared some insights into our program. Take the Program Selection Quiz to find the program best for you.
