As the leading independent Accreditation Body for the coaching industry, the IIC provides numerous benefits for each level of membership.
These membership options include:
Associate Membership is available for individuals and is open to all. We understand that not everyone who wants to benefit from coaching knowledge, wishes to train and qualify as a coach and become accredited. Therefore Associate Membership allows you to benefit from IIC membership without having to demonstrate your professional knowledge and experience of coaching.
Associate Members come from a variety of backgrounds. They all share an interest in coaching. So you may be a corporate director, business owner, a line manager, supervisor, in education, student, project manager, team leader, self-employed, running a small company, or someone who has an interest in the world of coaching - who ever you are and whatever you do, there are a whole host of benefits just waiting for you.

Accredited Coaches come from a variety of backgrounds and practice in a large range of professions. So you may be a life, corporate, executive, business, work/life balance, parent, relationship, sports, retirement, health, and list continues, coach - who ever you are and however you coach, there are a whole host of benefits just waiting for you.
