In November 2019, the International Coaching Federation announced updates to the ICF Core Competencies. These updated Core Competencies resulted from nearly two years of rigorous research and are based on evidence collected from more than 1,300 coaches across the world representing a diverse range of coaching disciplines, training backgrounds, coaching styles, and experience and credentialing levels, including both ICF members and non-members.

While this research validated that much of the current Core Competency model remains critically important to coaching practice today, new elements also emerged that have been integrated into the model. This session will offer an overview of the updated Core Competencies and what they mean for coach practitioners and the coaching profession.

·      Identify key updates to the ICF Core Competencies;

·      Compare the organizational structure of the original and updated ICF Core Competencies;

·      Describe the timeline for integration of the updated Core Competencies into the ICF Credentialing process.

Participants will earn 1.5 Core Competency CCEs for attending this webinar.
