As a relatively new field experiencing rapid growth, coaching comes with unique challenges. The ICF is the world's largest non-profit coaching association with over 50,000 members across 166 countries and territories. We are the organisation people turn to for professional development, excellence in standards and depth of understanding of the coaching profession.
The ICF defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximise their personal and professional potential.
ICF Chapters are local communities of ICF Members. The UK Chapter brings our global organisation to life at a national and local level. We build, support and preserve the integrity and standards of the coaching profession in the UK. We were the first ICF Chapter to be established out of North America and since founding in 2000, we have grown to be one of the largest, most active Chapters, with over 3,000 members.
Our members are coaches who follow professional standards set by the ICF and adhere to its code of ethics, with a focus on continued learning and improvement.
UK ICF Chapter members can login to keep informed around UK events. Refer clients to your UK profile; keep track of your development; chat with the community and register for events and, benefit from additional discounts and opportunities.
ICF members can access UK event details, information on credentialing and make the most of quick links to key resources on the Global ICF website.
