The Center for Executive Coaching is an inclusive organization. We encourage individuals from all backgrounds and cultures to join. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, religion, or sexual orientation. We follow all requirements under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
By using, visiting, or browsing CEC’s websites, or by participating in our live classes, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service, including, without limitation, the “Privacy” section of these Terms of Service, which section should be reviewed by you carefully. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, you should not use CEC’s websites or participate in CEC’s live classes.
CEC reserves the right, from time to time, with or without notice to you, to change these Terms of Service in our sole discretion. The most current version of these Terms of Service is posted on the site, and can be reviewed by clicking on the “Terms of Service” link located at the bottom of most of the sites’ pages. The most current version of the Terms of Service will supersede all previous versions. Your use of the CEC websites after changes are made means that you agree to be bound by such changes.
You can find the specific details regarding your billing program with CEC at any time by viewing the payment terms on the registration page you used to register with your program.
As a customer of a CEC program, you agree that we are permitted to charge or debit, as applicable, your fees and any applicable tax or other charges you may incur in connection with your use of CEC’s services. As used in these Terms of Service, “billing” shall indicate either a charge or debit, as applicable, against your Payment Method. The fee will be billed according to the terms on your registration page (the page where you entered your account information). You shall be responsible for all charges incurred through your account as well as for paying any applicable taxes. We will automatically bill your Payment Method for each billing period on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of your membership. If you want to use a different Payment Method or if there is a change in your credit card validity or expiration date, you may edit your Payment Method information by contacting us at info@centerforexecutivecoaching.com.
Your right to use a CEC program is conditional upon our receipt of payment. If payment cannot be charged to your credit card or if a charge is refunded for any reason, including chargeback, you agree to provide a new form of payment to keep your account in good standing. If you do not respond to our requests in a reasonable time period, we reserve the right to either suspend or terminate your access and account, thereby terminating this Agreement and all CEC obligations hereunder. You are required to pay any amounts still owed to us at the time your account is suspended or terminated. If you have an outstanding balance due on any CEC account, you hereby agree that CEC may charge these unpaid fees to your credit card. Of course, we are professionals and will do our best to work with you in case of challenging circumstances, so long as you are responsive and open and honest with us in exchange.
You acknowledge that if we offer installments, it is as a convenience and in no way meant to be as a “subscription” program. You are obligated to pay all installments until your balance is fully paid for the full price of the program, whether you choose to continue to participate actively in the program while installments come due or not. You may not cancel your installments for this course, just as you would not cancel the payment plan for an automobile.
No refunds are offered. This includes for any reason, including illness, personal issues, family issues, change in financial circumstances, Acts of God, or any other issues. It is up to you to be sure that this program is a good fit for your needs, and then to do the work required to complete it. Do not sign up if you are not serious about entering this field and working with us, as in any other endeavor or coursework, to succeed.
You may complete the program at your convenience and you have two years to complete the program along with two years of access to our member area. You may request an extension beyond that time if needed. You may download our tool kits and use those ongoing, as with any training manual, so long as you are up to date with your payments due.
Complaint and dispute resolution process: If you have any complaint or disputes with us during your program that are not covered by the terms herein, we are anxious to resolve them with you. Please email us your complaint and we will set up time to discuss it and attempt to reach resolution collaboratively.
Regarding organizations/sponsors that pay for an individual to participate: If you pay for another individual to participate, you are purchasing a non-transferable, non-refundable single seat license for that individual to use the program. We are happy to meet with the participant and you/program sponsor at the beginning of the program to create a plan for expected progress and reporting results, if desired. At the same time, it is up to you to screen each participant to make sure that they will meet your expectations by completing it, and for you to communicate with them about how and when they should complete and apply the program in a way that meets your goals and those of your organization. If the individual chooses to not participate or leaves the firm for whatever reason, no transfers or refunds are permitted; if you are paying on an installment basis, you are expected to make all installment payments as installments are offered as a convenience and are not a subscription that may be cancelled. Any certification provided to the individual remains with the individual regardless of his or her employment status with the organization.
Regarding seminars: If you register for a live training seminar and cancel or withdraw inside of 30 days before the seminar begins, you may attend the next scheduled identical seminar in exchange for a $500 rescheduling fee (of course excepting issues related to natural and manmade disasters, pandemics, etc; and we are very reasonable in cases of family emergency/illness). If you withdraw from that second seminar within 30 days of the seminar start date, you agree that you will need to re-register and pay the full program fee to reschedule. In case of an Act of God that requires us to cancel an in-person seminar, such as a weather event or man-made disaster, we reserve the right to offer a virtual seminar in place of an in-person seminar. If we cannot switch to a virtual seminar, you may come to a future seminar. Regardless of the situation, you agree that we are not responsible for any travel expenses or liability incurred in changing reservations/flights or other travel plans. In case a refund is required, you understand that the seminar is valued at no more than $2500.
Regarding the ICF Mentor Coaching Program: Because our ICF Mentor Coaching Program is very limited in the number of seats per class, it is costly when a participant registers and then chooses to drop out of the class. It also disrupts the momentum and team spirit of the class. Therefore, before you register for this program, it is important that you are 100% committed to completing your ICF Mentor Coaching Program. This means that you have cleared your schedule to make time for the classes. Furthermore, you understand that, should you drop out of your current cohort – for any reason whether in your control or not – you understand that there are no refunds and that you will pay the full program fee again to join a new class in the future.
Regarding International Coach Federation and other accreditations: Finally, you acknowledge that we do our best to remain in compliance with the International Coach Federation to remain an accredited organization with them. However, we cannot control their policies about accreditation, we cannot guarantee that they will renew our accreditation status, nor can we guarantee that the ICF will give you one of their designations when you apply. You agree to accept any risk related to ICF accreditation and designations.
The same applies to the Board Certified Coach program. In the case of the Board Certified Coach Program, note that you are expected to come with the required 30 hours of coaching experience or be able to achieve those hours within 2 months of registration; peer coaching does not count. If you are not sure whether that is feasible for you and you want a third-party credential, please register for the ICF training program instead, or earn our Center for Executive Coaching Certified Executive Coach credential.
If you are a client of The Executive Coaching Bootcamp: If you are a client of The Executive Coaching Bootcamp with payment being made through CEC, you are agreeing the terms and conditions and privacy policy of the Executive Coaching Bootcamp and those of CEC. If there is a conflict between these terms and conditions, the terms and conditions of The Executive Coaching Bootcamp will apply.
When you join the Center for Executive Coaching you are a member ongoing. Therefore, if something comes up that interferes with your participation in the program, you may resume and complete the program at any time in the future. However, as the above section makes clear, if you are on an installment payment plan, you are expected to continue making any payments as they come due. You agree to this term regardless of circumstances in your life including: illness to yourself or others, change in financial circumstances, family issues, change in employment or self-employment, and/or your decision whether to participate in the program or use program resources or not.
As long as your payments are up to date with the program, you may use our materials with your coaching clients. This right applies even after you complete and fully pay for the program. You may add your logo to the materials, and adapt the materials to fit your approach to coaching clients, subject to the restrictions that follow.
