‘I love the opportunity to be accredited by an independent body which qualifies coaches to the very highest standards. This means that clients truly know that coaches who meet the ICF’s quality measure really are up to the job. This will do much for the future of our profession and for me as a professional.’

Why did YOU join the ICF?

Some of you have been asking me recently about the value of ICF membership - What should we expect to get out it? How can we make the most of it?

This set me thinking about why I joined 7 years ago. A straw poll among colleagues garnered: to join a global community of coaches, to get an internationally-recognised credential, to keep up to date with what's happening in coaching, to sign up to a Code of Ethics I can believe in and share with clients....

and there’s lots more!

We've organised your member benefits under 4 titles:

• Education & Credentials
• Building Your Practice
• Resources, Tools & Info
• Discounts & Offers

We'll keep you in touch with what's available through emails and in the UK ICF Newsletter. And we’re planning in-depth articles on the most useful benefits. Look out for our Maximising Your Membership sections!

I encourage you to go and look for yourself. Come back and share your discoveries and tips for best use with us.
