Debbie Adams: "Coach Academy is a fantastic source for coach training, especially for those who desire IN-PERSON training for optimal learning.  I looked at many different coach training options, and Coach Academy was launched just in time to fill a unique place in the coach training market.  The program is designed for students to learn from doing, with lots of practice coaching and an exceptional introduction of many valuable coaching tools.  I recommend it to many."  Debbie has now achieved her ICF ACC credential and continues to work full-time as a consultative coach.

Karin A. Bailey: “Coach Academy is an amazing program. My graduation was truly a turning point in my life. I am now looking forward to completing the certification process and starting my own coaching business. This has been a life-changing experience. The growth I have experienced is tremendous. I’ve been honored to be taught by the best!”

Nancy McMorrow: “My initial feeling when I looked at the ICF website was that I was overwhelmed and felt that it would be way too difficult to reach certification. Coach Academy greatly shifted my feeling and energy. I went back to the ICF website near the end of the program, and I am confident that I will complete certification at the PCC level. My whole feeling about reaching this goal has changed. I’ve been coached well! I’m able to move forward. Thank you!”

Vallie Van Eron: “What a wonderful experience I had at Coach Academy. You have such a comprehensive, professional, useful, and energizing program! I got so much out of it—I’m so excited about the possibilities this has opened up for me. Great preparation and practical steps to develop and be successful as a coach. I feel very well prepared for this new business opportunity and life. I will be singing your praises. You have my appreciation, gratitude, and respect.”

Kathy Blanton: “Coach Academy provides a comprehensive, in-person learning experience that allows for dynamic, real-world training for the best Master Coaches in the industry. I am not only fully prepared to sit for ICF certification due to the meticulous detail and instructions given in the course, but I have broadened my ability to build a coaching business that fulfills my mission of helping others.”

Anisa Aven: "I had been coaching for more than 10 years when I decided to enroll in Coach Academy .  I enrolled because it was the first of its kind offering an NLP approach to coaching.  Additionally, I knew that the corporate market-place was turning rapidly towards only hiring certified coaches, so the time was right for me to get certified.   I am embarrassed to say that I didn't actually expect to get a whole lot from the 'coaching' portion of the training since I was already operating as a coach quite successfully.  I enrolled because of the NLP and the certification support. 

Truth be told - I thought I already knew all that I needed to know about coaching. I was so very wrong!   I had NO idea how much this program would evolve me as a person and grow my craft as a coach.  If my coaching was good before - it's off the charts now.  Adding NLP to my skill-set has advanced me personally beyond measure.   I was humbled by the caliber of instructors, the academy's organization, and its deep concern for their students.   I can honestly say that Coach Academy  is far and away one of the most advanced and professionally run coaching programs out there.  I highly recommend Coach Academy for both beginning coaches (who want the best training possible) and for seasoned professionals who want to add depth, dimension, and a proven methodology to their business." Anisa is now in the process of applying for her ICF MCC credential and is continuing her full-time coaching business.

Jackie Welch: “Wow! What a potent program! Thanks so much for sharing your wisdom, mastery and precious selves. Thanks to all my classmates for providing the rich learning environment that gave me support, confidence and experience.” Jackie has now achieved her ICF ACC credential and continues to work full-time as a coach.

Audrey Taylor: "Coach Academy is a valuable and empowering experience. . . .  It has allowed me to sharpen my skills, learn new skills, meet and collaborate with accomplished people and become qualified as an NLP Certified Coach.  The presentations reveal exceptional information--text, exercises, practical, realistic, and references.  The staff is highly committed, competent and all heart.  I am so glad that I made the choice to complete this program!" Audrey has now achieved her ICF ACC credential and continues to work full-time as a consultative coach.

Jennifer Bradley, PhD: "Coach Academy  is exactly the face-to-face coach training I was looking for. The learning that comes from hearing new ideas and concepts, immediately putting them into practice, and getting in-person individualized feedback is superb. Coaching begins on day one! The all the faculty are deeply committed coaches, who "walk their talk" and share their extraordinary skills and experience generously. It is also reassuring to know that I have chosen a program that weaves the ICF competencies into the program in a way that not only makes sense but makes credentialing "hoops" much less daunting." Jennifer has now achieved her ICF ACC credential and is continuing to work as a professional coach.

Karen Nash James: “What a ride! I am still smiling, thinking of receiving my NLPC certificate with the accompaniment of my classmates humming “Pomp and Circumstance”. I am so excited at the new opportunities that are ahead of me due to my training. I really enjoyed the content from our class about building a coaching business. Thanks—I needed that!”

Sawrie Becker: “This was a great learning experience for me. I received all I had hoped for and MORE. I have raised my level of coaching and feel very prepared for my credentialing journey.”

Joe Sipper: "With two young kids, time seems harder and harder to find.  I want to focus my 'training time' on developing practical and powerful coaching skills. In the Coach Academy Program, we do exercises, practice coaching, and share feedback in an environment that stimulates personal examination and growth as coaches. The NLP aspect of the training helps me better understand people's true concerns and messages, and then communicate more effectively.  The staff has been very accommodating, eager to address real-world issues and questions that come up throughout the training. I came into this training with high expectations - so far Coach Academy has come through with flying colors!"
