​What is Mentor Coaching?

It's a dynamic personal learning experience designed to build your understanding and use of the ICF Core Competencies. Some of it is done individually, some of it small groups. And it's a requirement for coaches who are ready to earn or renew their international credential. In mentor coaching, we "connect the dots" between your skill development, your coaching presence and style and the ICF Core Competencies. We'll give you feedback to reflect on and to put into practice going forward. Mentor coaching is you being coached--on your coaching.

In great mentor coaching, you can expect to:
  1. Work with a veteran mentor coach individually and sometimes as a member of a small group, completing the mentor coaching requirements for earning or renewing your credential,
  2. Master your understanding and use of the ICF's Core Competencies,​
  3. Create and select a good recording to send with your application, and to
  4. Get help in navigating the application process.
