Become a qualified coach and build a successful internal or external executive coaching practice through our Executive Coaching Certification Programs

Dear Professional:

If you seek a coach training program that shows you how to work with leaders, executives, managers, business owners, up-and-coming talent, and/or other professionals — and phrases like “client satisfaction” “results,” “proven,” “practical,” “real-world,” and “personalized support” are important to you — you are in the right place.

The CEC’s Executive coaching certification programs — which has been approved as an Accredited Coach Training Program (ACTP) by the International Coach Federation (ICF) ,and for 60 hours for the Board Certified Coach (BCC) certification — not only provides you with comprehensive executive coach training; you’ll also be taken through a step-by-step process to establish your executive & leadership coaching practice. If you want to start an external coaching practice, our business coaching courses include a detailed business development curriculum, tailored to attract your favored clients using proven successful strategies. This program includes one-on-one review of your marketing plan and support to identify the best niche for you and attract clients.

We train and certify both internal and external coaches

If you are an internal coach or wish to be one, the CEC’s Executive coaching certification program shows you how to build credibility in your organization so that executives and managers seek you out for your coaching skills. We also help set up internal coaching organizations and train leaders and managers to add coaching skills to better engage, mobilize, and develop teams and individuals.

If you want to be a certified executive coach and build your own practice…I can’t speak for other executive coaching certification programs and I won’t make earnings claims for you but I do know that some of our members are accustomed to earning in the mid-six figures and up, and at least one coach now earns $1.4 million while working to build a $5 – $7 million firm. In addition to coaching, some of our members also have published books, get paid to speak, and recognized as leaders in their respective markets. Equally important, once they graduate from the CEC, our members feel confident, comfortable, and competent as coaches — whether working to build credibility and attract clients, or working with clients on their most challenging leadership issues. In fact, many of our members get paid coaching engagements well before they graduate with us – all because of our practical methods and toolkits that you can put to work immediately for you.

Meanwhile, internal coaches become trusted advisers at all levels of their organizations.
