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.

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.

Organization Description: Certified Life Coach Institute (CLCI) offers an immersive, one-of-a-kind accredited virtual program so that you can achieve your ICF credential and have the career of your dreams. We are proud to say we have over a decade of practicing coach alumni who have gone on to have successful businesses.  By training with CLCI you will be with teachers who are certified with ICF, have successful coach practices, and come from different professional backgrounds which allows for wide and diverse skill sets. Our faculty is amazing, and we are proud and honored to have them!  Our training is a perfect fit for any niche and all types of coaching specialties. CLCI offers 2 levels of courses, both 3-day virtual classes; the 1st level class is an introductory certification class for 32.8 hours, the 2nd level adds another 33 hours, both classes totaling 65.8 hours of hands-on and in-depth coach training. Because we maintain a small class size, our teachers are able to give personal feedback to every student and answer any questions. Our teachers are approachable, professional, and experienced so you can be assured they care and will deliver the best possible education a coach can receive. We provide a manual for each student on the first day of class which expands the ideas we will be discussing and expounds on key coaching concepts; time and time again students tell us they still refer to the manual years later. By day 1 students begin practicing peer-to-peer coaching with an outline of GO LEARN, the updated Core Competencies, and an understanding of the “Coaching Mindset”. While we give a standard session outline, we also encourage our students to have their own personal style within the session model—no cookie cutter experiences.  In addition, we give guidance on starting a new business, how to represent yourself to others, and how to market yourself to potential clients. Throughout the years we have seen the coaching industry go through many transitions and we have not just survived, but flourished in the wake of Covid-19, adapting to virtual-only classes and helping our students navigate the new norm in coaching. With that said we look forward to you joining our family.
Program Description:
Our accredited virtual training program provides small class sizes, (due to COVID in person is on hold) feedback, and support during and after the training.  This model includes tools that work within all areas of coaching encompasses relationship, life transition, executive, career, health, wellness and many more specialties. Our program is broken up into 2 different 3-day segments which allows you to continue to develop and hone your education and skills as you further your coaching journey.
