Already meets the ICF standard taking effect April 1, 2027

From April 2027, ICF requires every accredited program to include a set number of observed coaching sessions per participant. We've already built this into Coaching in Organizations: each participant completes 6 observed coaching sessions, 2 during course sessions and 4 asynchronous via recordings, so feedback is continuous, not a single exam moment.

Organizations are hiring credentials now, not just "coaches."

As coaching gets recognized as a real profession, more companies are filtering out coaches who aren't credentialed. It's an honest shift, and it rewards people who've done the work to prove it. If you want to move from general or life coaching into real business coaching work, with the scope, clients, and rates that come with it, ICF PCC, EMCC Senior Practitioner, and IASTI credentials next to your name are one of the clearest ways to make that case.

THE PROBLEM

You've outgrown your first certification

You have your ACC or equivalent training. You're coaching, but you're still competing on price against every self-declared "coach" on LinkedIn.

THE RISK

Two separate certifications, two separate courses, double the cost

Most providers make you choose ICF or EMCC, or pay for two full programs to get both. That's money and months you don't have to lose.

THE FIX

PCC and Senior Practitioner, with a business coaching skill set built in

Coaching in Organizations gives you every training and mentoring hour required to pursue all three credentials, plus leadership, career, and conflict coaching skills that let you take on real corporate work, and charge for it accordingly.

Built for coaches ready to work with organizations

You coach inside a company already

Internal coach, manager, HR partner, or you're coaching as part of your regular role, you want that work recognized as real, credentialed coaching, not just something you do on the side.

You want to become a business coach

You're ready to move beyond general or life coaching and specialize in leadership, career, and conflict coaching for organizations, and to get paid like the specialist you're becoming.

You train, consult, or lead change

Trainer, organizational developer, consultant, Agile Coach, or mediator, you want credentials that open doors to bigger contracts and more serious clients.

You have 60+ hours of coach training

You've completed Coaching Fundamentals or another recognized Level 1 program, and you're ready for the next level.

The four kinds of coaching organizations actually pay for

Master all four and you can support companies across every one of them, which means a bigger scope of work, more clients, and more revenue than sticking to one specialty.

01

Leadership coaching

Coach executives and managers through the real pressure of leading people and decisions.

02

Developmental coaching

Support long-term growth for high-potential talent and future leaders.

03

Career coaching

Guide clients through job transitions, applications, and their first 100 days.

04

Conflict coaching

Help clients navigate workplace conflict and difficult stakeholder relationships.

Everything required to pursue all three credentials, and support long after

28 live weekly sessions

2 hours a week for 28 weeks, small groups of max 12, run entirely online.

10 hours of mentor coaching

7 hours in group sessions, 3 individual sessions you book directly with your mentor.

6 observed coaching sessions per participant

2 during course sessions with direct trainer feedback, plus 4 asynchronous via recordings, meeting the ICF requirement in full.
