About this programme

Transitioning to the ICF’s updated mentor coaching standards requires a fundamental shift: moving from intuitive, general feedback to rigorous, evidence-based evaluation. The BESTPRO Academy 10-Hour Mentor Coach Training is built specifically to bridge this gap without overwhelming your practice. Grounded in our Enhanced Mentor Coaching (EMC) Dual-Track Model, the course equips coaches to master these new requirements with total clarity. Participants learn to observe and document coaching demonstrations against ICF markers, complete session observations (SOF) that lead to cumulative reviews (CRF), and deliver developmental feedback that is both constructive and objective.

What sets this program apart is its immediate practical utility. We strip away administrative ambiguity by providing a complete, turn-key Toolkit—including client agreement structures, engagement trackers, companion guides, and clear observation workflows—so you can immediately update your practice. Designed specifically for the Credit for Prior Learning (CPL) pathway by Prof. Dr. Betül Saf, MCC, the curriculum balances academic rigor with flexible, self-paced learning. You leave with the tools, forms, and evaluation confidence needed to mentor future coaches effectively.

Who it's for

This program is tailored for ICF-credentialed coaches (ACC, PCC, MCC) navigating the shift to the ICF’s enhanced mentor coaching standards.

By replacing administrative ambiguity with time-saving tools and methods, the program makes this transition manageable and efficient across three key profiles:

MCS Credit for Prior Learning (CPL) Candidates: Coaches seeking verified training to fulfill the 10-hour education requirement for their ICF MCS application. Graduates of this program have successfully earned their official ICF Mentor Coach Specialization designation.

Active Mentor Coaches & Evaluators: Experienced ACC, PCC, and MCC coaches looking to refresh their mentor coaching practice to comply with new ICF standards. The program and its tools help coaches streamline new documentation requirements, deliver constructive, evidence-based feedback, navigate client pushback, and make defensible attestation decisions without damaging the supportive mentoring relationship.

Coaching Educators & Level 1 / Level 2 Program Directors: Faculty leaders, assessors, and program directors responsible for ICF-accredited Level 1 and Level 2 organizations. The course provides actionable tools to help you prepare your program to adapt to enhanced mentor coaching, remain ICF compliant, and ensure student credentialing logs are audit-ready for the ICF.
