Definitions

What is CCE?

Continuing Coaching Education (CCE) are formal courses and seminars that teach skills or tools directly related to ICF Core Competencies, the personal development of the coach, the development of the coach's practice or other skills or tools that are directly applicable to coaching.

What is a CCEU?

A Continuing Coaching Education Unit (CCEU) is defined to be an element of time with 1 CCEU being the equivalent of 60 minutes of direct educational contact. Non-educational time, such as lunch breaks, shall not count toward the awarding of CCEUs. CCEUs shall not be rounded up or down.

How do coaches use CCEUs?

The ICF credentials individual coaches at 3 levels: ACC, PCC, and MCC. Credentials must be renewed every 3 years. The CCE requirement for certification renewal is 40 CCEUs over the 3-year period. A minimum of 24 of the required 40 CCEUs must directly relate to the ICF Core Competencies. The remaining 16 CCEUs of the required 40 CCEUs must relate to either the ICF core competencies or to 1) the personal development of the coach, 2) the development of the coach's practice or 3) be skills or tools that are directly applicable to coaching.
