Membership in coaching organizations continues to increase. According to the ICF-commissioned 2020 Global Coaching Study, almost three in four respondents (74%) said they are an ICF Member.
Respondents who were members of one or more professional associations reported 30% higher average revenue/income from coaching compared to those who are not currently members.
To become an ICF Member, you must complete at least 60 hours of coach-specific training that meets ICF standards. The best way to accomplish this is by enrolling in an ICF-accredited coach training program.
