The Coach Certification Training Academy truly exceeded my expectations! Janice and her team were absolutely excellent—knowledgeable, supportive, and fully committed to helping participants succeed. Going into the program, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it turned out to be one of the best learning experiences I’ve ever had.
This was by far the most interactive online course I’ve taken. The format kept me engaged from start to finish, and I walked away not only with a strong foundation to prepare for the ICF exam but also with practical tools I was able to immediately apply in both my coaching practice and leadership role.
Janice’s depth of knowledge, approachable teaching style, and real-world examples made the material easy to understand and highly impactful. She and her team created an environment that encouraged participation, growth, and confidence.
I feel well-prepared for the ICF certification thanks to this academy, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about starting and launching their coaching career. It’s an investment in yourself that pays off in countless ways. I am truly grateful I chose this program—it has been a game-changer for me.
Hyacinth Morrison
The course was excellent and Janice really did a wonderful job with helping us grow our awareness with ICF Core Competencies, Values and Ethics. In addition, she has given us the confidence that we can dream bigger with our coaching capabilities and practice. Also, Heather is the unsung MVP with our PowerPoint skills and emailing our assignments.

Participating in the Level 1 CCTA course has been an incredibly rewarding and well-rounded experience. The personalized approach to mastering the coaching discipline provided me with valuable clarity on the role, resources, and tools essential to building a strong, effective partnership with clients. This course is truly a game changer for anyone looking to evaluate their coaching skills and earn their coaching credential.
Monee Carter-Griffin
The CCTA Level 1 course exceeded my expectations in every way. It offers incredible value, providing a comprehensive curriculum with immediately applicable skills and fully prepares you for the ICF certification process. The flexible, self-paced format combined with live group calls made it easy to fit into my busy schedule. Plus, the supportive community of peers and mentors has been an unexpected bonus - not just professionally, but personally. And the support from CCTA doesn't stop when the class ends! I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to build a strong foundation in coaching.
Loella Springmann
The course superseded my expectations. To be honest, I was expecting a dry, online course that feed me information. That was not the case. It did give me information, but the course was interaction, personable, and insightful to the coaching industry that you do not read about on a website. Janice has years of experience that she gladly shares with her students. I believe capping the cohort at a small number keeps students engaged and more open to building a trusting, safe environment.
By the end of the course, I had practical tools, skills and resources to help launch my coaching career. I feel set up for success to earn my ACC.
If coaching is in your future, I highly recommend this coaching academy to get your started.
Rebecca Kennedy
“This class far exceeded my expectations. Yes, I learned how to coach, but more than that, I grew as a person. I am 3x more excited about coaching than I was in October when I started this class.
I thought Heather was super organized and amazingly helpful.
Janice is just amazing. If I can become half of the coach she is today, that would be amazing and I feel like I could help a ton of people.”

Sutton Turner
I thoroughly enjoyed Parts 1 and 2 of the course. Janice’s expertise and dedication to her craft were inspiring, and I hope to one day develop my powerful questioning skills to her level to better serve my clients. Janice was always open to providing feedback and offering extra support outside class hours. I highly recommend this course for anyone pursuing their ACC ICF credential. The only suggestion I have is to incorporate more breaks, as I didn’t want to miss any of Janice's invaluable insights. Despite that, I would gladly take the course again and have already referred a friend.

As an Executive Coach and now receiving my ICF ACC Credential, special thanks in particular goes to Janice Coe, PCC for her excellent training at the Coach Certification Training Academy. I enjoyed and appreciated learning from her and her team, and that training has helped me develop as an executive coach. If you are looking for a program that is accredited by the ICF, this is the one you want!
Mike Haney
To be eligible for the International Coaching Federation Exam, you must provide a certificate of completion from an ICF-accredited program. I chose Coach Certification Training Academy, an American ICF-accredited institution, with Janice Coe, PCC as my mentor coach. After extensive research, I found this academy to be the best fit for me.

The Course was outstanding!
Janice got right to what was needed to be prepared to take and pass the credentialing exam. She didn’t waste time with a lot of extraneous stuff. Many of the courses I was looking at were many more hours and significantly more money and none of those courses could have prepared me any better than Janice’s course did.
The student cohort was great also. The other students were very willing to share their time, energy, and insights.
I also want to give a special thank you to Heather, who did all of the logistics surrounding the course. She was accessible, relatable, and made things very easy for us. I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone who is looking to learn to become an accredited coach.

Janice was very knowledgeable and well-prepared for every session. I had been searching for almost a year for the right coaching program, and finally, I chose CCTA. I can say now that it was the best choice for me.
Janice was very patient with me, and I never felt belittled. She cared about me being comfortable and making sure I understood the core competencies and other ICF requirements. She even offered to give me some information to help with a project I was working on for my job. She was very personable and easy to communicate with. As someone who knew nothing about life coaching, I now feel well-equipped with the needed fundamentals and the required ICF skills to perform as an ICF certified coach.
I would highly recommend CCTA to anyone who wants to become an ICF certified coach.

I thought Janice was extremely knowledgeable and very detail oriented. I had a wonderful group of coaches in my class, and it was a pleasure working with them.
I absolutely loved the barter coaching aspect of the class. It was a crucial way for me to get my hours and everyone was so welcoming and warm.
The class was also much more affordable than any other class I looked at on the ICF website, which was refreshing. Janice doesn’t do this for the money and genuinely wants to see her students succeed and become amazing coaches in the world.
Heather was also on top of everything and sent all the homework right after each session. Thank you for your time and dedication!

I found CCTA to be the perfect balance between learning how to be a professional coach, getting real practice coaching and preparing me to successfully complete all ICF certification requirements. Janice sincerely cares about her students in the program. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to up their game in coaching.
Exciting News! 🎉 I’m thrilled to announce that I am now a Certified Professional Coach after completing my training through the Coach Certification Training Academy. I’m excited to bring this new chapter into my work, empowering others to achieve their goals and unlock their potential.
A special thank you to Janice Coe, PCC for her incredible guidance and support throughout this journey—your mentorship made all the difference!
Giorgio Danso Managing Broker at BHHS PenFed Realty
This was an incredible experience of a class—I learned both the theoretical underpinnings behind what makes a good coach, as well as concrete steps on how to put that knowledge into practice.
The instruction is great, the content of the class high-quality, and definitely worth the time and effort. Even in the digital form, I felt connected with my instructor and fellow classmates.
I’m confident and ready to embark on my coaching journey, and it is all thanks to Janice and the team at CCTA!

It feels like a huge exhale followed by an overwhelming amount of gratitude and a massive accomplishment. When I began the CCTA course in January, I made myself a goal (before I even knew the goal orientation of coaching) to have obtained my ACC by the end of August 2023. Meeting that goal is simply incredible and I'm proud of myself!
Thank you for being in my tribe and supporting me along the way!
This is only the beginning of this journey, and I'm excited to see where I go with my ICF Credential! Thank you again for the amazing resource and support you have continued to be.

I am so grateful for the training I received from the Coach Certification Training Academy, especially the knowledge and support from the team and Janice.
The program was comprehensive, informative, and practical, and it gave me the skills and confidence I needed to launch my coaching business.
Since completing the program, I have seen a significant increase in my coaching business. I am able to attract more clients and provide them with the support they need to achieve their goals.
I highly recommend the Coach Certification Training Academy to anyone who is interested in becoming a coach. The program will give you the foundation you need to build a successful coaching business.
Claudia Flores Loucel
When I contracted with CCTA for my coaching training, I never expected to gain personal insights which transformed the way I think and behave. The coaching curriculum was so thought-provoking that it allowed me to grow not just as a coach, but as a mother, wife, leader and so much more.
I cannot begin to express the gratitude I have for Janice's patience, support, flexibility, and guidance throughout this process. She went above and beyond being a teacher, to being a supportive ally in my personal development.
I highly recommended CCTA to anyone considering an ACC certification, the training and support extends well beyond the classroom!"
Former Student
I now dedicate my entire Saturday to coaching class and completing the homework. It has become my favorite part of the week. I keep telling my husband and daughter that as an instructional designer, I've seen a lot of well-designed training programs. However, this is the first course where I have encountered really well-designed homework assignments.
I have skated throughout school, college, and other courses that required really easy or obvious homework. The requirements of this course are rigorous, and thought-provoking and every activity, reading, video, or writing assignment is engaging.

I’ve enjoyed the course and I can’t believe it’s almost over! The content of this course was spot on, very informative and I’ve learned a lot.
Janice is very knowledgeable and patient, for me she is a mentor I look up to.
I wish to also thank Heather for all the organization, emails and being predictable (I’ve know when the emails come and they were always on time).

I am reaching out to say thank you! You and my experience with CCTA have changed my life forever. I am better at being human because of what I learned at your school, and I’m convinced that the coaching mindset can be taught in schools across the country, and I need your help.
One of my 1-3 year goals is to develop an online school for teachers to earn coaching credentials. I believe that coaching cultures will transform schools, and it is my dream to help this idea catch on nationally.

Lorene Arnold
Two of my core reflections (which became goals) were, “Use my position to improve the lives of others”, and “Push myself to learn more so I can become a more complete leader.”
Becoming a coach is part of that journey. It’s incredibly motivating to be moving in the right direction via this great course.

Thank you so much Janice for your instruction.
Yes, I want to coach for profit, but I also, truly want to help people, especially those closest to me.
You have helped elevate my skills and accelerated my growth as a coach.

Sunny Adams
I have really come to realize that for soccer, I only connect with players through asking questions and showing compassion rather directives. I feel that is my role going forward. I have a contract with another soccer club where I will be coaching other coaches, through questions, helping them realize what responsibility they are willing to take.
Honestly, I am so glad that I switched programs.
As I’ve said several times already, my Level One class was pretty dull and robotic compared to yours. I mean that.
I got so much more out of your Level One program, as well!

As a manager in a private-sector corporation, my training with The Coach Certification Training Academy has been an invaluable asset in both my current position and for the next career step I am seeking.
Coaching as a management style is a not only a sought-after skill, but it is truly the best way to connect with your team and to achieve your shared goals. The training experience itself helped push me past my comfort zone all while feeling completely supported by the teachers and fellow classmates.
You not only learn skills and tools for how to dynamically engage with others, but you also come away with a greater sense of self-awareness.

Janice and her team prepared me exceptionally to not only sit for ICF accreditation but to feel confident in my coaching abilities and business.
What I also love about Janice specifically is her openness and willingness to learn and grow herself – she leads by example and demonstrates a beautiful commitment to continued development.
I felt cared for, comforted, challenged, and appropriately affirmed and critiqued – all of which were needed to feel confident in my coaching.

I recently completed the Coach Certification Training Academy's virtual classroom program, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. Janice, my instructor, did a wonderful job creating an environment that fostered the same group synergies and natural growth as a traditional classroom setting. The program's structure is incredibly well thought out, consisting of 30 hours of comprehensive training. The 10 hours of pre-work laid a solid foundation, while the 20 hours of engaging virtual classroom sessions provided ample opportunities for group practice and “live” demonstrations. This intensive and affordable 5-week course prepared me thoroughly to become a professional coach without compromising the quality of learning. A special highlight was the focus on the Code of Ethics and Core Competencies, which are crucial for any aspiring coach. Additionally, the inclusion of ICF required Mentor Coach hours was a significant benefit, ensuring that I received the guidance and support needed to hone my skills. Overall, I highly recommend the Coach Certification Training Academy to anyone looking to become a professional coach. The program is not only intensive and efficient but also deeply enriching and supportive, providing practical advice and tips for not only learning coaching skills but also running your coaching business.Posted on Darja NikolicTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was simply one of the best experiences I have ever had, both professionally and personally. I have learned so much, I got to know myself better and what it means to be a good coach and how to become one. I had the best role model and a teacher to learn from and look up to. Thank you Janice for teaching me so much, for supporting me, for believing in me! And thank you Heather for helping so much and for making everything work so well. I miss my classes with you and if I could, I would do it all over again, I enjoyed every moment I spent with you in class! Thank you with all my heart!

I just finished Level 1, Part 2 class. I found Janice to be very helpful both in teachings and in mentorship with respect to my coaching. I have noticed a significant improvement in my coaching abilities since I started the class. Janice is also very invested in the success of her students wanting to apply for the ACC credential. I feel she has prepared us very well. I haven't taken the test yet, but I got an 84% on the practice test. Also Heather is really great at making sure students have all the materials we need for class. She is very willing to answer questions and help with getting on Janice's calendar. Overall, this is a really well-run organization!Posted on Kathy ColemanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. CCTA (Janice) is a very knowledgeable facilitator and understands the coaching concepts very well. She ensures her students have all the documentation and information they need to proceed forward in pursuing one’s coaching credentials. I truly appreciated the exercises in Part 2, which assists the student in understanding their own values, beliefs and skillsets, to use/apply in their own coaching sessions with their clients. I truly appreciated the collaboration of this class and all of the learning lessons along this journey! Thank you!Posted on Steve HimelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
