If you are looking to learn more about Coaching and Facilitation, but aren’t sure of the value of the ICP-ATF and ICP-ACC courses, or are only looking for the learning, not the certification, our A la Carte option is for you! We’ve broken up the courses into 7 separate $95 offerings: four training days, the materials, and the certification for each of the ICP-ATF and ICP-ACC courses. You can purchase as much or as little as you would like. Certification requires taking all of its associated training.
Purchase however many pieces at a time as you wish by setting the quantity in the cart. For instance, if you want just Facilitation Day 1 & 2 and the materials, but not the certification, that is a quantity of 3 for a total of $285.
