Confidence Coaching Certification

A differentiating professional credential. No coaching experience required.

ACI is recognized by SHRM to offer Professional Development Credits (PDCs) for SHRM-CP® or SHRM-SCP® recertification activities.

9.5 ICF CCEUs (3 Core, 6.5 Development) and/or 8 SHRM PDCs | 8-9 hrs total -  $599 

We've certified over 400 outstanding business, life & wellness coaches around the world

 

Usually coaching certificates require weeks, even years, of training.

While we can’t teach you all the aspects of coaching in this course, we can teach you how to coach others, specifically, to increase their confidence in just a few hours. Whether you're new or experienced or just want to learn about how coaching confidence works, this program gives you game-changing knowledge, a practical toolkit and real-world experience for $599.

Diana Leeder, CPPC

The certification training through American Confidence Institute was a great way to pull together the experiences our clients have with confidence and increase our support toolkit within a solid coaching framework.

I’ve done many trainings and courses with one standing out hugely: my accreditation from the American Confidence Institute (ACI) and Alyssa Dver as a Confident coach has helped me grow immensely.

Honored and thrilled. Just finished working with an amazing mastermind group and was immediately able to apply my new insights.
