Coach Training Accreditation
 Coach Training Accreditation

We have awards for coaching skills programmes that Training Providers deliver. Our Coach Training Accreditation designation signals to participants that a training programme:

  • Meets our comprehensive coach training standards, including the application of our Coaching Competency Framework (PDF)
  • Works within our Global Code of Ethics for Coaches, Mentors and Supervisors ethical guidelines
  • Provides practical experience

Our Coach Training Accreditation is available to you if you offer Coach Training Programmes which are eligible and include core coaching competencies, essential coaching tools and skills and supervision.

Your programmes can be based on any discipline, approach, or model utilising a blended learning approach which balances practical and theoretical content.

We have outlined the requirements for our Coach Training Accreditation in our Coach Training Accreditation Overview. We welcome applications from any Training Provider, providing coach training who meets our accreditation criteria and standards.

If you are an AC Provider Member we also provide you with the opportunity to ‘gift’ your participants with a one year gifted Introductory Associate Membership to the AC as they study your coaching programmes and courses. If your course consists of 35 hours or more in length, please ask your delegates to complete this form.
