PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The MentorCoach Difference: Evidence Meets Practice

For 25 years, MentorCoach has trained over 25,000 coaches worldwide using a foundation other programs can’t replicate: rigorous positive psychology integrated with ICF Core Competencies.  Our Level One program brings that distinctive approach to coaches entering the profession.

What Sets Level One Apart:

Positive Psychology Foundation You’ll learn coaching grounded in decades of research on human flourishing, not generic questioning techniques borrowed from other fields. You’ll understand why certain approaches facilitate lasting change because you’ll study the psychological mechanisms behind behavior transformation.

ICF-Accredited Rigor This isn’t a shortcut to credentials. Our 60-hour curriculum meets every ICF education requirement for ACC certification while exceeding industry standards for depth and application. You’ll be prepared for client work, not just credential exams.

Cohort-Based Learning You’ll train alongside 20-24 coaches at similar career stages. Your cohort becomes your professional community, providing accountability, support, and collaboration that extends well beyond graduation. MentorCoach graduates maintain these relationships for decades.

Complete Credentialing Support We don’t hand you a certificate and wish you luck navigating ICF requirements. Our in-house team coordinates your performance evaluation, manages testing logistics, and supports your credential application from start to submission.

Faculty with Active Practices Your instructors maintain thriving coaching practices alongside their teaching. They know what works with real clients because they’re using it this week, not recalling what worked years ago.
