Does attending an Accredited course as a Student mean I am accredited?

AC Coach Training Accreditation signals to students that a training course meets the AC standard for comprehensive coach training.

Attending an AC Accredited course would not mean that you would automatically become an AC Accredited coach. In order to become AC Accredited as an individual, you would need to apply for Accreditation with us and meet the criteria. 

The AC Coach Accreditation is designed for individual coaches to demonstrate that they are committed to best practice and continuous improvement in their coaching.

There are two accreditation schemes available: the Executive Coach Scheme for coaches working primarily in an organizational context and the Coach Scheme for all other coaches. Both schemes offer a progression through four levels of accreditation and are equal in standard. You apply for the level that best matches your current level of experience and capability.
