International Coach Federation (ICF) The ICF is a global organization that exists to build, support and preserve the integrity of the coaching profession. It is dedicated to advancing the art, science and practice of professional coaching. Global membership now exceeds 20,000 and many coaches want to obtain an ICF credential. There are now 10,000 credentialed coaches worldwide. There are three levels of credentialing – ACC (Associate Certified Coach) PCC (Professional Certified Coach and MCC (Master Certified Coach). Coaching training in the course is fully aligned to the ICF, and certificates mapped to the ICF coaching competencies will be provided for participants wishing to continue onto an ICF credentialing application. This course is designed to provide 60 hours, which is the amount of coach specific training hours required to apply for credentialing at the ACC level. In terms of the ICF rules, CoachTrax/Outperformance may only apply to ICF for accreditation in May 2014. However, coaches with the requisite coaching experience and all other requirements such as coaching hours can apply to ICF without waiting for course accreditation. CoachTrax will also ensure that all ICF requirements for accreditation of the course are met: For example, each participant will have five coaching sessions (three with written feedback) by coaches holding an ICF credential.

People attending the course should expect to gain understanding and build skills in:

• Integration and alignment of organisational culture, business results, sustainable change and leadership with coaching as a key consolidating intervention

• Ethics of coaching within an organizational context • Understanding of distinction between coaching, consulting,

counselling and mentoring • Theories & models underpinning coaching • Coaching models used in the SA business context (Narrative, integral,

neuroscience, Emotional & Social Intelligence, gestalt) which will enable HR professionals to distinguish different training approaches, and also enable choice of continued training in alignment with personal orientation

• Self-awareness of personal views & thus orientation toward different coaching models; use of self in coaching

• Core coaching competencies – ICF • Coaching competencies within an organizational context

Who should attend the course:

• Coaches wishing to enhance their coaching practices • Business people wishing to add coaching as a skill to their repertoire • HR professionals who select and manage coaching panels • HR professionals interested in gaining understanding of core skills,

different theoretical underpinnings, & foundational skills as coaches • HR professionals who are internal coaches, or coach informally, in

their organisations that wish to enhance their skills through a rigorous training course

• The course will be limited to twelve participants, to enhance the experiential nature of the training (real coaching!)
