FAQ

Do I need to complete Level 1 before starting Level 2?
No. You can enrol directly in the complete Level 2 pathway, which includes Modules 1 to 4. If you complete Level 1 first, Modules 1 and 2 count towards Level 2, so you can continue without repeating them.

No prior coaching experience is required. LCTP begins with the fundamentals and progressively develops your coaching knowledge, skills and practical experience.

ICF requires at least 100 hours of coaching experience for ACC and 500 hours for PCC. ECI supports students through its alumni community, coaching drills and opportunities such as Coaching for the Community. You remain responsible for completing, documenting and submitting the required experience hours to ICF.
Yes. ECI graduates can revisit completed modules at no additional cost, subject to the programme schedule, availability and ECI’s prevailing revision policy.
