professions around the globe and the need to specialize and showcase your uniqueness

ICA Coaches living in France can Coach anyone, from anywhere in the world
Coaching has roots from a variety of theories and philosophies including adult education,
positive psychology and organisational psychology. And it can be found in an increasing
number of industries and professions. It is not a singular practice. Consequently it cannot
be taught as such.

Core Curriculum
The core curriculum is grouped into course areas and modules. For each module there is a downloadable PDF, a live teleclass, and peer discussion via the private community forum. These modules are mapped against ICF Core competencies and will give you the theory, knowledge and tools you need to build your practical expertise.
Coaching Labs
Coaching Labs are hands on coaching sessions designed to give students feedback on their coaching in the context of a specific ICF competency. Using a “Stop the Clock” technique, your coach trainer will interrupt the coaching session whenever they observe an ICF Competency in practice.
Mentor Coaching
Mentor Coaching is where you will develop your unique style as a coach. You will be both a coach and a client, and participate in role plays, round robin questioning and group feedback. An experienced coach (PCC) and member of faculty will provide one on one feedback to support you to develop your client management and coaching expertise.
Observed Coaching
By the time you reach Observed Coaching, you are nearing graduation. It's a chance to showcase your new coaching skills and increase your coaching mastery. An expert coach (PCC) and member of faculty will provide you with written feedback and observe you as coaching at PCC level.
Niche Development
Every coach at ICA graduates with their own niche, with the opportunities for niching being endless. Our Niche development labs will help you identify your niche, and then explore it together with other likeminded coaches.
Portfolio Creation
The coaching market is saturated with cookie cutter coaches - learning the same old models (GROW model etc.) and coaching with the same old processes. At ICA we help you to create a coaching model that is unique to you. This is how you will tell the world, and your future clients, who you are as a coach.
Peer Coaching
One of the most important components of coach training is applying theory into practice. With peer coaching you have the chance to try out your new coaching skills and techniques with your peers, and at the same time, accrue hours towards an ACC or PCC credential. Many graduates continue their peer coaching networks long after they graduate.
Global Coaches Forum
All ICA coaches belong to our coaches forum, with coaches in over 92 different countries around the world. Opportunities for local and global friendships and netwo
