Some conversations change everything. They decide what happens next in a person's life, in a team, or across a system.
This coaching education begins with a different question: how does that kind of change actually happen?
That question has shaped more than a decade of research and global field practice behind our science-based framework for human change. Through this ICF coaching certification pathway, built on this framework, you learn one reliable way of working with real change in real conversations — the ones that shape how people live, lead, and relate to one another.
Because professional coaching is now a recognised profession, the way you prepare for those coaching conversations matters as much as the conversations themselves.
Standards matter — especially when you are choosing how and where to learn.
One professional journey. One faculty community.
One unified approach you can rely on in every conversation.
When you train with us, you build your capability with a coaching school recognised across the coaching profession for rigorous, science-based education. Our professional coaching certification program, powered by The Transformative Edge™, gives you a clear pathway from your first coaching skills through to advanced mastery, using a unified framework for working with how people think, decide, and change in the moments that matter most
Build a credible coaching practice that works with real change in everyday conversations.
Since 2011, practitioners and leaders in many countries have used this coaching training program to work with meaningful change in everyday conversations — about work, relationships, life transitions, and the choices that shape how people live and lead. Whether you pursue professional coaching certification or bring this into your leadership, you are building your practice with an established, credible coaching training provider recognised across the coaching profession.
People come to coaching from different places. You may be leading teams and wanting conversations to do more than manage performance, seeking ICF coaching certification to build a credible coaching practice, or, as a seasoned practitioner, looking for a deeper way of working.
Transformative Edge™ is our flagship coaching certification program. It organises your development into structured training stages called Advantages. Each Advantage strengthens a specific facet of your capability while keeping you grounded in the same transformational approach, so that you can hold complex conversations with clarity, presence, and confidence.
For when you're done with surface chats, quick fixes, and just asking better questions — and you want your conversations to actually shift how people see themselves and their situation.
You learn to coach at the level where meaning guides action, not just at the level of problems and solutions.
For when people already come to you with their stories, and you want to hold the whole of what they bring—not just the story you hear, but the values, tensions, and concerns shaping it. You learn to work with the whole meaning system, so your coaching touches the person behind the performance, not only the role they are in.
For when you notice the same patterns repeating in people's lives and leadership, and you want to work at the level where those patterns are formed, not only with the issue they present today. You learn to engage change intentionally as a developmental path, moving beyond session-by-session fixes to how a person grows in how they see and respond to their world.
For when groups keep circling the same problems, and you want to help them think together in a way that actually moves them forward, not just run another "coaching-style" meeting. You learn to work at the level where a team's shared meaning is created, so you can coach the way they are thinking together, not just the agenda in front of them.
There is a lot to consider when you are planning your professional coaching development. Sometimes the easiest way to make sense of your options is to talk them through with someone who understands the pathways and the ICF requirements.
