Professional Certified Coach (PCC)
PCC is the International Coaching Federation's second, advanced credential, awarded after accredited training, paid coaching hours and an assessment.
Awarded by International Coaching Federation (ICF)Coaching is an unregulated industry. Anyone can call themselves a coach after a weekend course, which is exactly why an independent, assessed credential matters. The International Coaching Federation is the largest and most recognised professional body for coaches in the world.
What PCC actually means
A Professional Certified Coach has completed extensive accredited training, logged hundreds of hours of real paid coaching, passed a recorded assessment of their coaching against the ICF's competencies, and committed to the ICF Code of Ethics.
- 125+ hours of accredited coach training
- 500+ hours of client coaching experience
- A performance evaluation of recorded sessions
- Ongoing professional development to maintain the credential
Why it matters to you
It means you are working with someone who has been independently assessed as good at this, who works to a clear ethical standard, and who keeps their practice sharp. The hours are in, and the bar has been met.
