Discovery Series
Elevate your coaching education program and expand your expertise with the Discovery Series — free, specialized sessions for ICF-accredited coaching education providers. Gain exclusive access to insights on trending topics through expert presentations and roundtable discussions curated by volunteer leaders. These sessions offer a unique opportunity to connect with peers, explore best practices, and earn CCE credits, all while enriching your journey as a coach educator.
If you are affiliated with an ICF-accredited program, you can find more information about upcoming Discovery Series sessions via the Global Knowledge Community and in our email communication to you.
Town Halls
Your gateway to the latest initiatives and premier resources in coaching education: Town Halls offer curated topics from our expert staff, volunteer leaders, and Board of Directors. ICF-accredited providers gain access to these invite-only quarterly discussions, giving you a voice as you shape the future of coaching education.
Assessor Community Calls
We know that providing quality performance evaluations is a critical component of maintaining Level 1 and Level 2 accreditation through ICF. That’s why we’ve created community calls for those who serve in the role of a performance evaluation assessor.
This call series — which is one of our highest attended offerings — provides a valuable chance to connect with fellow assessors, discuss assessment processes, and practice assessments with real coaching session recordings. These calls also offer you the opportunity to deepen your understanding of the ACC BARS and PCC Markers that guide your work.
