ICF CCE units can be hard to come by if you wait until the last minute to start the search. Fortunately, International Coaching Week provides some great options.
ICF CCE units are available for many of the offerings. I hope you found the time to participate in all that International Coaching Week has had to offer, and you’ve topped up your coach learning and development buckets!!
I know that many of you have taken this opportunity to do some planning around your professional development for the balance of the year and beyond.
You inspire me to keep on growing too!
The International Coaching Federation promotes continued learning. The ICF official position on continuing coaching education is stated on the ICF website.
As part of a self-regulating industry, ICF is committed to coaches providing consistent value to their clients. In order to maintain these professional standards, ICF’s position on Continuing Professional Development (CPD) keeps pace with industry expectations and emerging standards.
CPD focuses on the development of the coach’s competence with a wide range of rich opportunities for the support and development of a coach’s skill set. ICF is committed to providing opportunities for coaches to consistently develop and grow professionally through training and skills enhancement.
Various components of education include:
- Additional coach-specific training
- Professional development events
- Coaching tools training
Many education activities are eligible for Continuing Coach Education (CCE) units coaches can apply toward renewal of an ICF Credential.
I am writing this post today, with a couple of reminders, and a nudge to take action on your goals for the future.
When I’m feeling a bit slow to act in the direction of my intentions, I recall the wise words of Thomas J. Leonard,
People who wait for a magic wand, fail to see that they ARE the magic wand!
And now, as International Coaching Week begins to draw to a close, here are your reminders.
