The program is self-paced.  The program is designed to be completed within 8 weeks. However, some people complete the program sooner, and some people take longer. Everyone is different.

You will access the training in the student center.

The training has video, audio, and notes.

We do not mail books or videos.

To complete the program, you must:

• Complete and submit all assignments and quizzes.
• Complete one coaching session as the final exam.

You have unlimited access to the coach training and certification course. 

If you have not completed the program after one year you will have to renew your membership for $100.

When you join, you have a one-year membership to the rest of the student center. This includes the Business & Marketing training, The Coach’s Success Path, Tools, Exercises, Library, Live Calls, and more.

If you would like to complete the program in the recommended 8-weeks we suggest 3-4 hours per week.

• Up to 2-hours of video watch time per week
• 1-2 hours of homework, most weeks.

Nothing fancy!

You just need a computer with access to the web, of course.

You should be able to stream videos and download/upload materials like photos and documents.

This program is only for the most committed individuals.

This program is for you if you are passionately drawn to coaching, starting a coaching business, and assisting in changing lives.

If leaving the door open to quit is a strong concern for you, we invite you to take it as a sign that this program is not right for you.

When you sign up for the self-paced program, you are also getting access to our materials that you can download to your computer to keep.

Therefore, we do not offer refunds for the program.

If you choose the payment plan option, we will cancel your remaining payments.

UCI is an ICF CCE provider.

Through our Solution-Focused Coach training in the Life Coach training program, you can only receive 10 ICF hours to go towards your ICF accreditation.

We do not offer the full 60 ICF hours for ICF accreditation.

Please note: You do not need to be ICF accredited because the ICF does not regulate the coaching industry and upon successful completion of this program, you will become a Certified Coach.

No. The coaching industry is not regulated. There is no official certification or license for you to become a professional coach (life coach, business coach, etc.)  in the USA.

There are many educational programs like UCI that will award you with a certificate upon completion. This means that you have been trained as a coach and have successfully completed a training program. With training and certification, you will be more credible to clients as a coach.

The ICF is a voluntary organization that attempts to govern and regulate coaching. Although legally, they have no power to do this, within the coaching profession, they are viewed as the strongest of organizations.

Keep in mind that over 95% of clients will not have heard of the ICF and thus care more about certification titles and training then governing bodies.

Clients generally do not know who the ICF is and what they do. Clients are most often only concerned that you are trained and certified.

However, if you are seeking employment with large organizations, they often look for ICF accredited coaches when hiring.

Upon successful completion, you will receive a soft copy and logo:
