A coach who holds an ICF Credential has completed a rigorous credentialing process to develop and refine their coaching skills. Anyone can call themselves a coach, but ICF-credentialed coaches have demonstrated a thorough understanding of the coaching competencies that set the standard in the profession.
Additionally, ICF-credentialed coaches adhere to strict ethical guidelines as part of ICF’s mission to protect and serve coaching consumers. According to the 2022 Global Consumer Awareness Study, 85% of coaching clients say it’s important or very important that their coach holds a certification or credential.
