Forthcoming Updates to the ICF Credential Process
ICF Credentials and Standards continually strives to advance our credential process — ensuring it meets the highest standards in professional certification practice, supports and elevates ICF Credential-holders, and offers an important quality assurance for coaching consumers. As part of this commitment to excellence, we are announcing several exciting updates.
If you are pursuing an ICF Credential, you can look forward to:
- Updated credential application paths that integrate the updated ICF Coaching Education Accreditation structure.
- Updated Performance Evaluation criteria and guidance developed in alignment with the updated ICF Core Competencies.
- The new ICF Credentialing Exam, which is a secure, state-of-the-art exam designed to assess candidates’ knowledge and skill in the ICF Core Competencies.
The updates will take effect August 1.
