Credentialing Path

60-hour Board Certified Coach Training

The Board Certified Coach credential (BCC), offered by the Center for Credentialing and Education, recognizes the strong foundation developed as part of an advanced degree program in the social or behavioral sciences, and its applicability to the profession of coaching.

For those who have an advanced degree in the social and behavioral sciences (business, management, social work, marriage and family therapy, psychology, medicine, education and law), the 60-hour Board Certified Coach Training program provides a thorough introduction to foundational coaching principles and practices, and includes core coaching competencies, ethics, and “gap areas” not addressed in previous professional training. Those with a master's or higher degree in Counseling, or those who hold a master’s degree or higher in a mental health field and hold a NCC (National Certified Counselor) credential will want to choose the 30-hour Board Certified Coach Training program.

Students choosing this program and pursuing this path to BCC credentialing will begin by registering for ILCT's Foundational course, and will complete 20 hours of coach training from our wide selection of electives.
