Coaching Mastery Program

The Coaching Mastery Program has been created to support you in achieving your Erickson Solution-Focused Coach Diploma (ESFCD) and to prepare you for accreditation with the International Coach Federation (ICF). Erickson Approved Mentor Coaches will support you to reach the level of professional coaching that is required for you to apply for a credential from the International Coach Federation (ICF).
