Coach Match
What is it?
A process that pairs trained BCA coaches with members of the BCA community students, graduates, alumni, to engage in meaningful conversations to support coach development and client growth.
Who will be my coach?
Individuals that have completed at minimum 40 hours of BCA Coach Training (I.e. having participated in BCA Part 1 or BCA Core Skills/Credential Courses)
Available coaches include individuals working towards acquiring their RCC (WABC Registered Corporate Coach™), Associate Certified Coach (ICF ACC) or Professional Certified Coach (ICF PCC) designations.
Coaches come from diverse professional backgrounds and have widely varying subject matter expertise.
About the sessions:
- Coaches offer an initial “Good Fit Conversation”, as an opportunity for you to get to know each other, scope your coaching topic, discuss logistics of the coaching engagement and to answer any questions you have about coaching.
- During your coaching sessions, you and your coach will partner in inquiry-based conversations to surface new awareness, explore possibilities and co-design action and accountability plans as you work towards your coaching goals.
- All BCA Coaches commit to complying with the International Coaching Federation's Code of Ethics. Client confidentiality is essential.
How much does it cost?
This is a BCA peer-development opportunity. To ensure equity of access all coaching engagements are offered free of charge (considered exchange of service by ICF).
