Some Basic Facts about Certification.  As of June 2010, there are no laws or regulations on the certification or licensing of individuals for life coaching.  Many organizations offer some level of training and some will tell you that this is certification is required, but the fact is that there are NO mandatory requirements to become a coach.

So you're asking, "If I don't need credentials, why should I take a certification course?"  This is a good question and I am glad you asked it.  While it is true that there are no regulations or even job requirements to becoming a coach, you still need to have some basic understanding of the coaching process to be successful.

If you intend to call yourself a coach, please understand that it is a discredit to professionals, like myself, with years of experience and training if you simply call yourself a coach to attract customers without having any knowledge of the profession. You are truly misrepresenting what the coaching profession is all about. 

So, if you plan to become a coach I would strongly recommend you get training.  Our training program is designed to help you to not only be a better coach but also a better business owner.  That's right... you need to know how to build and maintain your own business.
