Australasian Credential Support Program (ACSP) Overview

The ACSP has been established to support coaches through the credentialing process by providing the opportunity to apply for additional support through the ICFA.

What can I expect?

Up to 2 hours of support by your ACSP mentor coach. They will answer credential specific questions. Provide encouragement by providing a clear path to the credential process using their experience.

Important note: The 2 hours of ACSP support are not included in your required mentor coach hours for your designated credential. This mentoring is to assist you through the process of applying for your credential. It is not mentoring around your coaching skills or coaching business.

There is no cost to you. Your ACSP mentor coach is providing their time free of charge. ACSP mentor coaches are dedicated coaches who want to support you in your professional development by sharing their knowledge, wisdom and experience.

How do I apply?

1. Contact the ACSP coordinator, Tracy Tresidder at ascp@icfaustralasia.com or by phone +61 (0)2 9924 7078 to obtain a "matching form".

2. Send completed form through to ACSP coordinator who will identify 'best match' based on information supplied

3. The names of three ACSP mentor coaches will be sent to you

4. You contact the coaches to determine best for you

What I am I responsible for?

Once you have your ACSP mentor coaches' names, contact each one to determine "best fit" for you.

Commitment - define with your ACSP mentor coach how best to utilise their expertise. Be clear about what you are looking for AND how to best maximise your time together. Above all, enjoy the process; you are now making a very informed decision about your future as a professional coach.
