ICF Accredited Academic Coach Training

The Fundamentals: Academic Coaching is the Future of Education

The skills, mindsets, perspectives, and creativity required to be successful in the current global environment is changing. Traditional education, based on transferring knowledge now easily accessible by the web, is outdated.

A new path of education, based on increasing empowerment and creativity, is being crafted and implemented. Academic Life Coaching (ALC) is one of the tools used to help young people recognize and realize their different intelligences and pathways to leading fulfilling adult lives.

Training to be a life coach and building your practice as an academic life coach furthers this transformation in education toward a model that prizes kindness and creativity as much as knowledge and academic intelligence. It’s career growth with a larger purpose.

It’s a measure of how well vocational schools are preparing their graduates for success and offering support in building careers. CTEDU and the ALC coach training program exceed those standards.

How Our Education Model is Different

The Classroom Is Flipped

Lectures are prerecorded so class time is spent engaging with instructors and participants.

No Grades. Only Feedback

Assessments and checks for understanding are designed to guide, not judge. Exploration and creativity thrive in such a safe space.

Deep Work. Deep Learning

The clarity you gain from the feedback and one-on-one practice will transform you. You will grow as much personally as you do professionally.

“As a trained school counselor, I wasn’t sure whether or not I really ‘needed’ ALC training to get started coaching students. But I am so glad I took the plunge and registered for the course! The assistance and support I received, not just during my training but also for months afterwards as I started to set up my coaching business, was invaluable to me and ensured I was totally prepared from day one. My trainer, and the customer support team at ALC, were all so responsive and helpful, and I still feel like a part of their family.”

- Cynthia Cox, Graduate of the ALC training program
