Important information before you begin

We’d like to ask you to make a few key commitments to ensure you gain the most value from our Level 1 coaching program and feel confident as you work toward your ACC credential. These aren’t just guidelines – they’re part of what makes the learning experience effective and rewarding:

  • Live session participation: We ask that you attend at least 80% of the live classes. If you cannot join a session, you can stay on track by watching the class recording and submitting your personal reflections.
  • Practice makes progress: We encourage you to coach peers or real clients actively throughout the program. This hands-on practice is vital to solidifying your learning and building confidence.
  • Writing assignments: You’ll be asked to set aside some time to complete writing assignments designed to strengthen and reinforce your coaching skills.
