But great teams don\u2019t just happen,\u201d said Carrie Abner, vice president of ICF Credentials and Standards. \u201cTeam coaching can be a vital element to the success of teams.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;\">Team coaching is critical to harness teams&#8217; collective expertise, energy and experience to accelerate performance and improve results within a team and across an organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;\">\u201cNow, through ICF Advanced Accreditation in Team Coaching education and the Advanced Certification for Team Coaching, practitioners can develop and demonstrate their competence in this complex discipline and the value they can offer to teams and organizations,\u201d Abner said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;\">In any profession, proper preparation typically begins with education. With the ICF Advanced Accreditation in Team Coaching, coaches are now able to easily identify and trust in specialized education programs that will prepare them for the team coaching discipline as well as for the advanced individual certification.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;\">\u201cThe Advanced Accreditation and Certification in Team Coaching are the result of a partnered effort across ICF to truly deliver on what team coaching practitioners need to succeed,\u201d said Luke Davis, ACC, CAE, vice president of ICF Coaching Education. \u201cWe know that the better the education or training a coach receives, the more likely they are to make an impact through their work. This is especially true for working with teams.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;\">These offerings demonstrate yet another way that ICF continues to set professional coaching standards and advance the coaching profession. Coaches will be better equipped to work in this complex discipline, and coaching clients will be able to more easily distinguish between those coaches who have expertise in team coaching from those who do not.\u00a0In choosing an educated and certified team coach, organizations and other clients will find new ways to work and thrive.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;\">More about the new offerings:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;\"><strong>ICF Advanced Certification in Team Coaching <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;\">Coach practitioners will be able to demonstrate their knowledge, skills and abilities in team coaching with the <strong>ICF Advanced Certification in Team Coaching<\/strong>, which is offered by ICF Credentials and Standards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif;\">The rigor of the ICF ACTC is significant, with requirements for education, experience, guided reflective practice <em>and<\/em> an independent assessment designed <em>for<\/em> team coaches <em>by<\/em> team coaches.
