Life Coaching Institute of America (LCIA) is an International Coaching Federation (ICF) approved coach training program. LCIA has been providing coach training for over 12 years. LCIA offers 60 virtual hours of ICF approved coach training and 10 hours of Mentor Coaching to meet all requirements for the Associate Certified Coach (ACC) Credential. LCIA provides 30 synchronous hours of highly experiential training over three (3) weekends and requires 30 hours of asynchronous assignments from students.

What sets LCIA apart from other coach training programs? ** The co-founders provide all training and support. ** LCIA values and maintains relationships with students well after training. ** LCIA trains and utilizes Motivational Interviewing (MI) in coach training. MI is a communication skill that enhances the ICF Core Competencies. ** LCIA understands the process of change. ** The co-founders have known each other for over 40 years, are passionate about the coaching profession and LCIA students. ** LCIA keeps the class size small so they are able to fully engage and support students with individualized attention. There is time for conversations and questions. Learning is interactive. ** The majority of our students are direct referrals from graduate students. LCIA is BEYOND Coach Training. Over and over again we hear from students that our coach training program is transformative in all areas of life. Call LCIA for inquiries.
