Completing my Coaching Certification with Coach Academy was an amazing experience both professionally and personally. The facilitator's experience, knowledge, mentoring and coaching skills are key factors for the Academy's success. The CA team's dedication to the growth, self-awareness and success of each coach is remarkable. I'm so grateful to be part of the CA coaching community and to have learned so much from the CA team and my coaching peers. This program offers so much! I strongly believe that having coaching skills shifts the mindset where everything is possible.

I cannot say enough good things about Coach Academy. The founder has created a learning space where one can feel safe, open and integrate the learnings of coaching for both personal and performance coaching even during a time that restricts us to Zoom meetings. The facilitator is very knowledgeable and patient. Her passion for this area can be easily seen during the sessions. My time in this course flew by even though it was twenty plus weeks of Zoom. It was my retreat and I feel prepared to coach others. If you are even contemplating joining CA, I recommend you do not hesitate. It will change your life.
