Where to get ICF CCE units. That’s a question that starts popping up at this time every year. Here are some tips.
Many of you who are credentialed coaches, will be renewing your ICF credential in December, and you are on the hunt for great sources of CCE units.
Even though ICF credentialed coaches have three years to accumulate forty CCE units, there always seems to be a last-minute scramble to line things up by the deadline.
I wrote an update on this in an earlier post, ICF CCEU COVID-19 Updates for Credential Renewal 2020.
My absolute favourite source of ICF CCE units has always been WBECS, the annual World Business Executive Coaching Summit.
There is a Pre-Summit, where you can earn five complimentary ICF CCE units and a Full Summit, where you can earn over two hundred ICF CCE units.
WBECS is an outstanding source of coach learning and CCE units
I have attended WBECS for the last six years, and I inevitably find myself wishing I could fit in more sessions.
I’m excited to learn that there will be a new Online Coach Community available for coaches this year, where you can connect with coaches around the world. Yay!
Here are some of the top speakers on the roster for 2021
• Martin Seligman – Positive Psychology and Building Well Being
• Hal Gregersen – The Surprising Power of a Catalytic Questioning Toolkit
• Michael Bungay Stanier – How Coaches Let Themselves Down
• Dorie Clark – Leveraging Connections: Building a Strong Opt-In Email List
• Erica Dhawan – Digital Body Language
• Sharon Melnick – Working While Female: Coaching Women Leaders to Success
Registration is now open!
I’m told that many of the popular sessions reached over 50% capacity within only 24 hours.
The Pre-Summit starts on June 1st. You can still register for over 35 live, online classes. They are all completely pitch-free and 100% value!
You can join panel discussions, see live coaching demonstrations, and much more.
Hope to “see” you there 🙂
Register here for the complimentary Pre-Summit sessions
Pro Tip for CCEs – You can get up to 10 ICF CCE units for attending a mentor coaching program. Even if you don’t need mentor coaching for credential renewal!
