This is an exciting time for team coaching globally. Both the EMCC and the ICF have presented Team Coaching Competencies. The EMCC has created global standards and an accreditation pathway for team coaches and for team coach training programs.  The Global Team Coaching Institute, in partnership with David Clutterbuck and Peter Hawkins, was created and launched in 2019 with a focus on online team coach training. Organizations will be on the lookout for professionally trained and accredited team coaches.  The ICF has not yet announced plans for specific accreditation for Team Coaching programs or coaches, though we anticipate this will come in the future.  Your opportunity now is with the EMCC to receive your Individual Team Coaching Accreditation at the Practitioner level.

Globally Accredited: This program is approved for 40.5 CCE’s from the ICF (36.5 Core Competency hours and 4 Resource Development).  Team coaches who work with clients are also eligible to complete additional assignments and assessments to achieve the ITCA Practitioner level from the EMCC. (Additional nominal costs will apply but the total fee will be less than doing it directly through the EMCC)
