ICF Celebrates 1,000th Master Certified Coach
Lyne Desormeaux, Psy.D., of New York, New York, USA, became ICF’s 1,000th MCC on November 15, 2018. Lyne is a longtime ICF Member and credential-holder. She joined the Association in September 2004 and earned her ICF Professional Certified Coach credential the following March.
This milestone came less than one month after the passing of an ICF leader who played an integral role in advancing ICF’s credentialing program globally. ICF Global Past President Kay Cannon, MCC (USA), passed away on October 29, 2018, following a seven-month battle with glioblastoma. To celebrate Cannon’s legacy and honor her commitment to coach credentialing, ICF awarded Desormeaux with a one-time $575 USD scholarship to apply toward her continuing professional development.
This marked the second milestone for ICF’s credentialing program in 2018. In August, Germany’s Alexandra Claes became ICF’s 25,000th credential-holder when she earned the Associate Certified Coach (ACC) designation.
