60-hour Board Certified Coach (BCC) Coach Training Program


Elevate your services with a Board Certified Coach credential

Our Board Certified Coach credential (BCC) coach training program is offered in conjunction with the Center for Credentialing and Education (CCE). The CCE’s program allows working professionals within a wide range of specialties to easily add the enhanced effectiveness and marketability of coaching training to their current services.

Course content fills in gaps missing from educational training and standard work experience. In addition to core coaching competencies, techniques and best practices, you will be introduced to a variety of communication tools that have been shown to elicit greater participation and sustainable outcomes among clients and patients. These include: establishing trust, reframing outdated/ineffective belief systems, active listening and powerful questioning, and the setting of goals to achieve a preferred future.

The 60-hour BCC coach training program is currently open to those with the following experience:

  • Master’s degree or higher in social or behavioral science (social work, education, health, business)
  • Recognized coaching credential and a bachelor’s degree or higher in any field

Just as you offer tailored advice to each patient or client, we ensure our trainings are geared toward the holistic aspects of each individual. Whether provided through the content in our coach trainings or the fully customizable nature of our toolkit – allowing you to adapt every tool to your unique niche and those you serve – our Board Certified Coach credential is just like you: singular and exceptional.

Course Descriptions


INSIGHT:
Whole Person Coaching® Starter Kit

(On-Demand 10 module digital training)

INSIGHT gives you the tools and skills you need to start coaching others. This training includes sample coaching sessions and our customizable “Coaching Starter Toolkit,” getting you up and running immediately.

whole-person-coaching-starter-kit_sm-2

With this course, you will:

  • Add a rich suite of resources into your coaching toolkit with the essentials, including: coaching contracts, coaching plans, values cards and archetype self-assessments and more are included.

  • Be able to identify your client’s unique learning and informational processing styles, and sculpt your coaching process accordingly.

  • Use our FootSteps coaching intervention to generate positive momentum and sustainable change with your ideal audience.

  • Clearly articulate the value and benefits you offer your prospective clients so you spend less time selling yourself, and more time helping others.

  • Customize your coaching toolkit, tailoring it to your unique offerings and personality.

The key to change mastery lies in a strong foundation from which to elicit change. The Self-Discovery Process is essential to both coach- and client-success. Your clients will become confident in you as their guide. More importantly, you’ll be well equipped to serve them at your best by knowing: who they are, what truly matters most to them, and how to elicit their very best. It’s worth noting that many people begin charging for their services at this point and start earning back their initial training investment.

 

IMPACT: Revolutionary Relationships

(3-Day Intensive – Available Online, In-Person & Recorded)

Relationships are everything. The relationship you hold with yourself, others and the world as a whole shape the way in which you see, feel, hear and behave in the world. Impact is about being your best self in service to others.

With this course, you will:

  • Tap into Relational Neurobiology, Interpersonal Mindfulness and Adult Attachment Theory to understand the effects of relationships on brain development, decision-making and habits and how to best to effect change.

  • Understand how to create and nurture an empowering partnership, one rich in trust and authentic connection, with those you serve.

  • Discover the five-core relationship building skills of attending, believing, confidentiality, reflecting and empathy to support your clients to overcome their own self-doubt and fear.

  • Move beyond emotional triggers and remain present and highly effective working with others regardless of what arises during the session.

  • Explore the 4 ways of “knowing” and learn how to tap into the multiple intelligences of the whole person.

Change is hard. Changing others can be even more challenging. Without the proper levels of trust and rapport and the capacity to work with the whole person, that’s usually how it ends up. This course is designed specifically to help you maximize the impact you make on the lives of others through the power of your presence and an empowering relationship you co-create with others.

Most participants have shared that the learning and tools they take away from IMPACT have single-handedly transformed their personal and professional relationships. This training has made it possible for them to be ‘openly authentic’ as well as ‘heard, seen and trusted by others’.

          You’ve probably got questions…

          A central component to your success is finding the right program (and an expert guide) for your needs. We’re here to make sure you do! Our goal is to help you discover the right path that will lead you to the results you seek.

          Below you will find answers to some of the most commonly asked questions. If you don’t find the information you need, please call us at 1-888-660-5588 or schedule your non-obligatory conversation.

          Is your coach training program Accredited?

          Yes, we are accredited by the Center for Credentialed Education and the International Coach Federation. You can use our coach training programs to earn your ICF ACC, PCC or MCC and/or a BCC credential.

          Are their additional expenses that I should know about?

          Our program is all-inclusive with the exception of any membership or final exam fees that Center for Credentialing Education (BCC) may require.

          What is the time commitment for the program?

          That all depends on you! On average, our students report that they spend 3 to 10 hours a week on the program. Unlike a university or community college, most of this time is spent at your convenience. Whenever you can fit the training into your schedule, it’s there waiting for you. Please note that you have up to 2 years to complete your coursework.

          What if I have a schedule conflict with a course?

          From time to time, we all have unavoidable scheduling conflicts or find ourselves a little under the weather. Unlike a college course, all of our sessions are recorded, enabling you to take part live or at a time that’s more convenient for you. Audio/Video files of our calls are uploaded to the web and available for on-demand streaming. This ensures that you’ll never miss out or fall behind.

          Need some financial assistance?

           The National Board for Certified Counselors Foundation (NBCCF) now offers financial assistance for BCC certification. Three awards of up to $3,000 each are available to help cover the costs of BCC training at Coach Training World and other CCE-approved providers. View eligibility and application details

          Do you offer financial aid?

          Other than split-pay, we do not offer any additional financing options, such as financial aid or scholarships, at this time. Because of the deep value we’re committed to providing, we keep our classes small. This enables us to provide the highest level of professional coach training and business mentoring possible. In this program, you won’t be swimming in a sea of thousands but rather engaging and learning alongside a select group of others who are deeply devoted to developing a highly successful business of their own.

          Also, we have discovered that when someone invests in their development, they are positioning themselves for success. This is one of the lessons you’ll learn to do strategically and effectively in this program. In turn, you’ll be using this same philosophy to ask your clients to invest in your services and programs.

          It’s worth noting that many people earn back their tuition within the first year. Some even earn 10 times their tuition (or more). The results are different for each attendee.

          How do I get my employer to pay for this?

          We’ve found that employers are often delighted to fund your training, especially if you position the training as a solution to what they perceive as their biggest needs and show them how you could be the next game changer within your company.  Companies throughout the world are bringing coaching into their culture as their secret weapon to success. We are more then happy to provide the required information and any invoices to make this happen for you!

          Introducing Chief Empowerment Officer Yvonne Chang

          Introducing Success Coach Claire Yeung
