Education Search Service (ESS)

The International Coaching Federation (ICF) does not offer initial education and training to become a coach (we only offer professional development for practiced coaches). As the accrediting body for coach-specific education and accredited providers, we cannot recommend any specific coaching education organizations.

To ensure quality education, ICF accredits coaching education organizations that meet the high standards set forth by ICF and ICF Coaching Education. To find ICF-Accredited Providers we suggest that you use our Education Search Service (ESS) below. The search for a coach education program is a highly individual process that depends greatly on your personal preferences and goals. The ESS is designed to give you basic information about all ICF-Accredited Education Providers.

PROGRAM DETAILS

For further information, please contact this training organization rather than the ICF office. The ICF recommends all approved programs equally and cannot recommend one program over another.

2. Our coaching is holistic and based on models from Business Management, Learning Theories, and Sports Coaching.
3. Our approach to coaching is revealed in Tim Gallwey’s books about The Inner Game (Tennis, Golf, Work....). In his series, Mr. Gallwey’s focuses on what happens in the space between hits. It is the focus on “between the meeting approach” where practice and learning from applying and ethics takes place.
4. SUN also works with principles from the fields of Integrated Learning, NLP, Neuroscience and Ancient Wisdom, principles and philosophies.
