In line with the Institute’s objective to get the profession of coaching acknowledge and regulated at national and international level, the International Coaching Register brings transparency to coaching. The Register will enable the public and organizations to feel safe and secure in the knowledge that the coaches listed are qualified, and their credentials verified to the highest standards. The Institute are concerned that currently anyone can set up a website and call themselves a coach without any formal qualifications, and many such individuals bring the profession a bad name. Qualified coaches are encouraged to come forward and be added to the Register so that it can develop into an internationally recognized trade mark for professional coaches of the highest standard.
