ICF-Level 1 Accredited Training (ICF-ACC)

# Path to Agile Coaching

Effecting real organizational change demands coaches who are skilled at engaging the hearts and minds of the people they work with. It’s about holding the space for the client’s agenda. It’s about the process of guiding discovery. It’s about relationship building. It’s about learning to leverage a true coaching stance. Build your competency in professional coaching through our Path to Coaching program.

We have distilled the most practical and useful lessons from a cumulative two decades of applying and testing different professional coaching modalities in the context of Agile Coaching. Essential elements of our philosophy are derived from the Scrum Alliance® Path to Coaching Video Series, research into the stages of adult development, Integral and The Manifesto for Agile Software Development.

Each one of the four modules consists of eight skill-drill calls and two colleague calls. Each skill drill call includes prework required to prepare for the session, a focus on one or more of the ICF core competencies, techniques to leverage the competency while coaching, group discussion, and coaching practice focused on the ICF core competency. Modules can be taken in any order and successful completion of all four modules are required to complete this ACSTH program and be awarded the Superheroes Academy Path to Coaching (SAPC) certification.

This program takes a small group mentoring approach guided by ICF Accredited Trainers and Scrum Alliance® Certified Agile Coaches. We are headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, but student can join from anywhere in the world as each session is held over videoconference. Participants have access to an online discussion forum where they can interact with our coaches and each other as they progress through the program.
