ICF CCE units are important to earn if you are an ICF credential holder. To maintain your credential, it must be renewed every three years and continuing professional development is an integral part of the renewal process.
CCE units, take time and planning to acquire. Here are some important reminders to keep in mind, so you are renewal-ready when the time comes.
All credentials renew on December 31st. The renewal date extension is the last day of February
If you were unable to submit your credential renewal application by December 31, ICF does provide a 60-day grace period. This 60-day grace period will extend through the final day of February and your credential will remain active during this time. (ICF website)
Mentor Coaching counts for ICF CCE units in the Core Competency category
Even if you do not need mentor coaching for your credential renewal, you can earn up to 10 ICF CCE units by participating in a mentor coaching program.
The ICF website has links to ICF CCE unit options
The ICF requirements and options for Continuing Professional Development (CPD) for coaches can be found on the ICF website.
The new ICF Competencies will be fully integrated this year
If your coach training program was centred around the original 11 Coach Core Competencies, you need to learn the new 8 Coach Core Competencies and start integrating them into your practice.
In my Group Mentor Coaching programs, I teach the new competencies and markers in a format that gets you grounded in this new model quickly.
The next program takes place on Zoom, Wednesday Evenings (EST) 8 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. – January 26 to February 23rd
Sign up for this program if:
- You want to learn the new competencies fast, and earn 10 ICF CCE units in the Core Competency category
- You need 7 more ICF CCE units by the extension deadline in the Core Competency Category (CC) and are not already submitting mentor coaching hours
Feel free to share this message with your coaching colleagues.
We start next Wednesday! You can register for the program here.
