Investing in a Credentialed Life Coach is investing in yourself.

98.5% of coaching clients surveyed report that their investment in a coach was well worth the money.^* This and other information on this page is taken from a survey made by The International Coach Federation, 1998

Buyer beware! Many people who call themselves coaches, have no formal coach training, nor are they credentialed by a recognized coaching professional organization with a strong Code of Ethics. Both my coach credential and my coach certification let you know that I am a well trained coach who succeeded in a rigorous coach training program, and who meets the strict requirements of credentialing.

I am proud to hold the Professional Certified Coach credential (PCC), awarded by the International Coach Federation (ICF), the world's foremost international professional coaches' organization.

My Professional Certified Coach credential recognizes:

• My successful completion of a rigorous approved coach certification program, accredited by the ICF (see below)
• My documented 750 professional client coaching hours with at least 25 clients.
• Letters of recognition of my coaching skills by two Master Coaches who have either been coached by me, or who have heard me coach.
• Five recommendation letters from coaching clients who have benefited from their coaching with me.
• My commitment to complete 40 hours of Continuing Coaching Education (CCE) by ICF approved programs, over each 3 year period.
