Using Zoom provides us richer virtual learning experiences!
ICF Michigan has a proud tradition of offering its members a regular calendar of outstanding educational opportunities, all designed to expand and enhance the skills of professional coaches. We feel it’s important to make these programs as accessible as possible. ICF Michigan members are able to register for free to almost all events; non-members are welcome to attend for a small fee. Many are virtual, taking place on the Zoom video conferencing platform. There are also regional in-person meetings for those who crave face-to-face connection.

For specific information about upcoming events and webinars, please see our Events Calendar.

Here’s an overview of our regular programming:

ICF Michigan’s Professional Development Programming offers monthly educational opportunities, featuring local and national speakers on a range of coaching-related topics. We strive for a balance of content that supports your growth as a coach, alongside information about developing your business and career. Meeting on the Zoom platform enables participants to actively engage with the speakers and one another while providing the next best thing to an in-person experience. 

Webinars are a valuable membership benefit; ICF Michigan members attend for free, and each webinar qualifies for between 1 and 1.5 Continuing Education Credits (CCEUs). Members also have exclusive access to the webinar archives at icfmichigan.org. Webinars and Virtual Events are usually $20 for non-ICF Michigan members.

The ICF Core Competencies are the backbone of professional coaching and the credentialing process. As professional coaches, it is critical for all of us to understand¬ and be able to demonstrate each core coaching competency. Regularly exploring the Core Competencies—in theory, but especially in practice—is essential to one’s development as a coach.


Who should attend:
Whether you are a coach preparing for your first or next credential, or a more seasoned coach interested in brushing up on your skills, this series promises to be an opportunity for all coaches to engage in a critical examination of each competency, learn from one another, and share resources.
