Are you procrastinating on mentor coaching? I know how challenging it can be to make progress on ICF credentialing, especially when it comes to getting organized for credential renewal.
Mentor coaching? That takes time! It may feel like it’s particularly difficult now with so many other things competing for your time and attention!
It’s easy to get discouraged and frustrated when your credential goal seems unreachable.
You make some progress, and then you slide back.
You have a good month, then fall into old patterns again.
I get it. I really do.
But, let me ask you this…
What if you started mentor coaching?
What if you stopped waiting for the planets to align and the situation to be perfect?
ICF has made it easier to renew!
If this is your renewal year, you’ve still got time to meet the deadline, even if you aren’t finished mentor coaching by December 31st. Here is the official word from the International Coaching Federation:
For instance, if a coach is not able to complete their mentor coaching until mid-January, but renews immediately thereafter, his or her credential will only be lapsed for a couple of weeks and he/she will not need to submit additional CCEs with their renewal application. If the coach waits until March to renew, however, their credential will be lapsed for two months and he/she will need to submit 41.2 CCEs with their renewal application.
Further changes were made this year to account for the impact of Covid 19, specifically, For coaches with a credential expiration date of December 31, 2020, who do not submit a renewal application by year-end, CCE requirements will be capped at 41.2 CCE units through December 31, 2021
This change supports coaches who have experienced cancellations of CCE opportunities in 2020 by limiting the penalty for additional CCE requirements.
Why not just start with a mentor coaching group?
