“The Career Coach Entrepreneur Academy offers a powerful structural foundation called the Elevate Career Cycle. I learned how to guide my clients through the strategic and psychological stages of transition accelerating their success. Pairing the model with the Elevations career assessment was brilliant and effective. I also mastered the ICF competencies and ethics, preparing me to secure my credential if I choose. The library of resources, outstanding instructors and mentors all exceeded my expectations. I’ve been through a huge range of credential and advanced degree programs—none of them gave me as much as the Academy. If you want to develop talent within an organization or are seeking to start your own career coaching business, the Academy is your next step.”
