Can I get certified by ICF by taking coach-training courses at different coach training programs?
Yes. ICF has a certification application called the portfolio application, which allows you to take coach training from one or more various settings and apply those hours toward ICF certification. However, it is a significantly streamlined process to just graduate from a single ICF Accredited Program like the College of Executive Coaching, as opposed to the more complex and time consuming portfolio application. Again, please check with ICF directly as they occasionally revise their rules.
