Does iPEC train their coaches to give advice? Are you more of a consultant kind of program?
No. iPEC does not train their coaches to give advice. As an iPEC professional coach, you master the Core Energy Coaching™ process, which goes beyond traditional coaching to tackle the root cause of your client’s challenges. This includes their underlying thoughts, emotions, and energy. As you help clients shift hidden internal blocks, they uncover their own insights that lead to powerful and sustainable shifts in every area of their life.
Additionally, iPEC’s Energy Leadership™ Index assessment provides tangible, research-backed ROI for any coaching engagement.
Is 100% of the program available online?
Yes. iPEC’s Coach Training Program includes three, 3-day modules that can be completed at your choice of an in-person or virtual location.
During these modules, you practice your skills in a supportive in-person or online environment, get immediate feedback, and build invaluable relationships with other students. These in-person/virtual modules are required for graduation.
How long is the program?
Phase One of the program can be completed in 7-8 months. At the end of Phase One, you earn the designation of Certified Professional Coach (CPC) and Energy Leadership™ Index Master Practitioner (ELI-MP). Please note: you do NOT have to wait until you finish Phase One to start working with clients.
