What accreditation is needed to have credibility as a Professional Life Coach?
Coaching is an independent profession and relatively young and so very few accreditation processes are in place. You will need to check on your local laws and regulations. • One of the most well known and respected international accreditation bodies is the ICF http://www.coachfederation.org/ • The South African Coaching body is COMENSA http://www.comensa.org.za/ TIP: Coaching is different and separate to counselling or psychology and therefore doesn’t need the same regulations as mental health services.
