Chapter Benefits

To connect with coaches in your area, visit your local chapter! Chapters are searchable by Name, Charter Status, Region and Country. If there is no chapter in your area, you may wish to participate in an ICF Special Interest Group — or consider starting your own chapter!

Some of the great benefits of chapters include:

Networking Opportunities - Chapters provide a venue for meeting other local coaches and sharing insights, ideas, best practices, etc.

Education Opportunities - Chapters provide invaluable education to member coaches through monthly seminars and events. Chapters can apply to the ICF for Continuing Coaching Education Units (CCEUs) for their events, whereby attendees receive credit toward the earning or renewal of an ICF Credential.

Increased Visibility of Coaching in Your Community - With the assistance of ICF, chapters have the opportunity to increase the visibility of the coaching profession in their community through marketing and public relations. By increasing awareness of the coaching profession, you will also be increasing the demand for qualified coaches.

Leadership Opportunities - Chapter participants have the opportunity to develop their leadership skills in many ways, including holding elected office, particpating on a chapter committee, or leading a seminar or event.
