Successfully completing a final oral coaching exam
For a student seeking Professional Advanced graduate certification, that student would move from completing the PACG into the ACCG certification application process.
This ACCG certification will test applicants at the same coaching standards level as the ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC). The benefit of applying for the ACCG is that you will be tested by assessors familiar with ADHD coaching. you can apply and get tested faster than the certification process at ICF, and you will be able to apply to obtain the ACCG designation with half the coaching experience hours needed for the ICF PCC designation. When you successfully receive the ACCG, and once you’ve accumulated the 750 experience hours, you can apply at ICF as an ACTP applicant rather than as a portfolio applicant.
Requirements for ACCG certification:
Before one can apply for this certification at ADDCA, a student must meet the following requirements:
- Be a graduate of the Professional Advanced program and have received your PACG designation
- Have coached at least 20 clients and accumulated at least 350 client coaching hours (Up to 30 hours can be pro bono; the rest must be paid coaching hours.)
- Have worked with an ADHD MCC/MACC mentor coach for at least 10 hours over a 3-month period and within the six months prior to your certification application
- Have obtained two letter from ADHD MCC/MACC coaches who have heard you coach and can attest that you are coaching at the ACCG/PCC level
Please note:
*Group mentor coaching may count toward the mentoring requirement of 10 hours, but no more than 70% of the required mentoring hours (in this case, 7 hours) can come from group mentor coaching. The group in which applicant was mentored cannot have contained more than 10 participants.
**There is an additional fee for the ACCG application process.
