What Does it Take to Earn a Credential and where are you on your journey?
This new year, many are embarking on a goal to obtain or retain their ICF Credential. Earning an ICF Credential is a rigorous process that provides legitimacy and professional credibility. This process can often seem shrouded in mystery, confusion or just overwhelming. Join us for an open and insightful drop in conversation and Q&A session with Coach Educator, Mentor, Assessor, and Founder Dawn DeFrancesco.
Are you curious about what credentialing path is right for you? What is the difference between being certified and being credentialed? Do you know how to navigate the ICF portal to upload your package of documents? Do you need to renew your credential or has your credential lapsed? How do you submit your performance review recordings? Learn the answers to all of your questions and more.
Are there any questions we didn't catch? We welcome you to submit your questions here and we'll do our best to address them during our time together. We are excited to connect with you and making 2025 a year of credentialing success!
