Although this depends on which certifications you choose (you have over 20 areas to choose from), for the most part, the average graduate from the Become a Certified Coach program would have the following credentials and accrediting upon graduation (included in your tuition):
John K. Patrick, CLC, ACC (choose any designations you want to display here.)
Honors graduate from the Coaching Academy of North America Inc.:
- Certified Life Coach (designation CLC)
- Certified Goal Attainment Coach (designation CGAC)
- Certified Success Coach (designation CSC)
- Certified Christian Coach (designation CCC)
- Accredited Associate Coach (ICB www.CoachingInternationally.org)
You would have the following option of displaying accompanying logos on your promotional materials and website that you will receive when you graduate.
This would be in addition to any ICF accrediting you would peruse. Seeking ICF accrediting is not necessary to coach but is a path some coaches do take.
Coach Mackenzie
There are so many to choose from!
I have six credentials from CANA, which makes my title pretty long, but thankfully, I don’t use them all. Coach Calvin
I risk to seem the layman, but nevertheless I will ask, whence it and who in general has written?
One is only limited by one’s willingness to work and achieve.
Through all those choices, it is important to go deeper in one or two areas and to develop our expertise. I appreciate the choices you give us and the possibility to go on in the training.
It would be good to explore but I agree that specializing in one or two areas that work together is the best way to go.
As of completing my training with CANA. My credentials are:Certified life coach
Spiritual Coach,
Accreidate Associate Coach
and Certified Success Coach
Exciting! I am looking forward to completing with these credentials: Certified Life Coach, Accredited Associate Coach, Certified Spiritual Coach and Certified Emotional Intelligence Coach. But there is no limit to the amount of niches if I am willing to put in the work!
Those letters will look very impressive after our name.
People like to see qualifications. There are certainly enough of those to choose from.
Thanks for the examples here, makes it a little more real. Can’t wait to graduate!!
Is it just me, or are there others who are second guessing their niche choices, there are so many to chose from.
Great post!
