CPC Coach Certification: Basic
CPC Coach Certification was created to see coaches developed and verified with the aim of supporting and helping Canadian Church leaders in their pursuit of excellence. As an organization we are committed to developing missional churches and leaders all across Canada. In keeping with the spirit of CPC this certification process is simply a way to establish quality and facilitate excellence amongst the CPC partners.
When a coach is certified it means they have:
- Agreed to our ethical standards
- Received verified training
- Had their coaching evaluated
- Coached for a certain number of hours
- Been personally coached
All of this is a servant of a larger goal which is to be a catalyst for the Canadian Church and its leadership towards being multiplicative and missional as well as sustainable and supported in their ministry.
CPC Coach Certification can be realized through two routes: CPC Coach training or through other training organizations (Non-CPC training). The certification is the same regardless of the route. In the case of the CPC training it is designed to satisfy the certification requirements. Should you have training from other sources then more information will be needed to make sure that the certification requirements are satisfied.
The Cost
The application fee for certification is $75.00 (One time Fee)
Annual renewal fee for certification is $35.00*
*The basic certification is renewable for 4 years. It is the expectation that each coach would move to the senior level within four years. Should a coach not move to the senior level, within the time frame their certification at the basic level would be terminated.
