Accreditation/ Certification Policy for Coaches

The curriculum must be grounded in evidence-based practices and regularly updated to reflect the latest research and trends in the field

Experience: Coaches must have a certain amount of practical coaching experience. This includes hours spent coaching clients, which must be documented and verified.

Continuing Professional Development: Coaches must engage in ongoing professional development to keep their skills and knowledge up-to-date. This could involve attending workshops, seminars, or conferences; undertaking further training or education; or participating in professional coaching networks or communities.
