Earn your first 100 coaching hours — one step at a time. Just 2 hours of coaching per week can get you to the 100 hours needed to apply for your ACC. The First 100 Hours Special Interest Group (SIG) is a virtual learning community for ICF Australia Charter Chapter members who have completed Level 1 training (or equivalent) and want practical ways to build hours and navigate the ACC pathway. Across seven sessions during the year, you’ll connect with like-minded coaches, share strategies, and learn from peers who have successfully walked the journey before you — all in a supportive, collaborative space.

Topics will vary depending on who is speaking presenting. There will be breakouts and ideas sharing but it non sales orientated. I.5 CCEUs are allocated to those who attend the whole session - full participation is expected, with engagement in breakouts.

Join as many or as few meetings as you like. Zoom lockout is at 5 minutes after the start. Please join with cameras on and microphones muted.
