Mentor Coaching
Individual and Group Mentor Coaching To Meet Your ICF Credential Requirements
The Coaching Academy for Leaders
Mentor Coaching
The Coaching Academy for Leaders holds the ICF Mentor Coach Specialization (MCS), a global qualification that sets a professional standard for the quality and consistency of mentor coaching practice.
The MCS was developed in response to growing recognition that mentor coaching is a distinct discipline; one that requires more than coaching experience alone. It demands the ability to observe coaching over time, evaluate competency at the appropriate credential level, and deliver structured, developmental feedback grounded in the ICF Core Competencies.
As a student of The Coaching Academy for Leaders, your mentor coaching hours are guided by a practitioner who meets the highest professional standards in this area of coaching practice.
What Is Mentor Coaching?
Mentor Coaching provides professional assistance in learning and demonstrating the levels of coaching competency and capability required for the desired credential level.
Mentor Coaching for an ICF Credential consists of observing and feedback in a collaborative and appreciative process based on an observed or recorded coaching session to increase the coach’s capability to coach at a level that is in alignment with the ICF Core Competencies.
Mentor Coaching for ICF Credentials
Students who wish to pursue credentialing with the ICF must participate in Mentor Coaching prior to submitting their application. If you wish to pursue your ACC, PCC, or MCC credentials (or renew your ACC), mentor coaching is required. You can view the ICF requirements here.
Our Group Mentor Coaching Program
Our group mentor coaching program meets the ICF requirements for mentor coaching, so you can pursue and achieve your accreditation!
You will be mentored specifically on your coaching skills rather than on practice building, life balance, or other topics unrelated to the development of your coaching skill. Your mentoring will be a development process that takes place in a repetitive cycle of receiving feedback regarding your coaching, reflecting on this feedback, and practicing new skills, focusing on using the ICF core competencies.
