​Executive Coaching E-Course & Certification Track


This is our premier post-graduate coach training e-course designed for professional coaches that are eager to obtain corporate contracts as an Executive Coach.

This self-paced E-Course provides immediate access to a comprehensive executive coaching framework, allowing you to learn, integrate, and apply at your own pace.


Executives need support with creating healthier organizational cultures without burning out or selling out. Executive Coaches are being called in to help.

​Executive Coaches gain efficacy through structured modules and guided application, you will move step-by-step from understanding to implementation
. When they apply twelve key integration points. Our program covers all of these and more.


Transformational Leadership Transforms Organizations
Leave an even bigger positive impact! Leverage your coaching practice by helping leaders integrate into their potential and develop their Integrative Intelligence. 

This E-Course is designed to help you immediately translate learning into real-world executive coaching results.

Building on the foundation of PCC education, we instruct on the twelve essential methodologies for optimizing 
Conscious Leadership Integration. These include 360 Feedback, EQ Assessment, ROI Tracking, Coaching Culture, DEIB, StrengthsFinder, Psychological Safety, and Critical Conversations.

What does it take to successfully coach executives and leaders into their integration? 
  1. Understand the coaching strategies that yield results at the leadership level
  2. Conduct leadership assessments with compassion that facilitates change 
  3. Inspire a leader to lead through their heart
  4. Help leaders create a motivated work environment, minimize turnover, and enhance morale 
  5. Support a leader in having critical conversations to foster positive transformations
  6. Transform leadership breakdowns into breakthroughs 
  7. Implement industry standards in Executive and Leadership coaching
 
Leaders get into leadership because they have a vision and a strong personality for implementation. Many leaders, consciously or unconsciously, can become stuck in their ways. 
 
A powerful leadership coach helps integrate the intelligence of the leader with their heart by facilitating more inspiring and collaborative conversations. When this happens, it is a huge breath of fresh air for everyone in the organization.
 
Coaches come in and help leaders align with better solutions that leave a positive impact in all areas.

Why we are here!

We have been delivering coach training excellence since our launch in 2012. We have collectively impacted hundreds of individuals, teams, and organizations because of our unique approach.
 
At the Institute, we are passionate about integration work. We are also passionate about efficacious leadership. This post-graduate program is the culmination of those two commitments—now delivered in a structured E-Course format for greater accessibility and flexibility.

We also noticed that after a coach is trained in the core competencies, they often have to take additional programs and certifications to navigate sponsored engagements effectively or to up-level sponsored engagements. These programs can cost up to $3-6k each. We decided to bring all key educational elements into one single program. This saves the coach massive amounts of time and money while integrating all the modalities into one comprehensive framework.

Additionally, other executive training programs failed to provide an entry point. Breaking into the world of Executive Coaching and sponsored engagements can be challenging. To support the transition from study to executive-level practice, you may choose the Certification Track, which includes two Coaching Internships and twelve Coaching Supervision sessions.

We pride ourselves in delivering one of the most comprehensive coach trainings in existence. We combine all of the key elements into one high-impact coaching framework called Integrative Intelligence®. 
 
Our trainers all hold PCC and MCC level credentials through the ICF. We are a proud member of the Association of Coach Training Organizations (ACTO) and carry an A+ accreditation score with the Better Business Bureau. 
 
We are here because when leaders integrate into their potential, everyone benefits. We value being a part of the solution and supporting other professionals who feel equally called to leave a positive legacy with their life. We are invested in bringing the highest levels of training and mentoring into companies that are ready for sustainable solutions.

Program Testimonials:

"The CEC training through III is a refreshing view for many of us who have come up through corporate and institutional work on how to take management theory, environments, and performance assessments and transform these aspects into powerful coaching tools.

True to III's mission, the training is about integrating the skills and attitudes of leaders into personal growth tools that coaches offer to help their executive clients get to their next-level best. Building a professional brand and executive presence takes intention and at a certain point in every person's career, consciously overcoming the auto-pilot thoughts and behaviors that keep one below the threshold of their higher potential: a leadership-trained coach is the guide to cross that threshold.

Leadership coaching is a nuanced and specialized skill set: the III CEC training program helps coaches learn the transformational process to best serve their client's professional development while simultaneously developing the coach’s higher-level coaching skills.”  


Megan Daly, MHA, CPIC
Director of Help Me Grow Inland Empire

Loma Linda University Children's Hospital

“This course contains so many relevant coaching approaches to the issues leaders are facing. The tools are applicable right away and valuable in all coaching arenas, leadership and beyond. The level of experience the instructors bring into each lesson is invaluable.

The class engagement is well balanced between instruction and small group exercises and discussions. I loved how the program topics all weave together throughout the course. This program bridged the gap for me from effective coaching to effectively coaching leaders. Attending the CEC has equipped me to answer my calling to coach leaders!”


Heather Roberts, CPIC, ACC, CLEC
Educational Facilitator & Leadership Coach

“I experienced both instructors as caring, authentic, and honest. I value the network building that occurs naturally with these groups - I love getting to know the other coaches in the group and see this as a strategic opportunity to build my resource network of support (people that I can turn to as a coach, peers!).”  

​Christy Anderson, CPIC
Executive Director for the Banner Health:
Innovation Group (BIG) 
“I enjoyed the CEC program and learned so many useful skills to incorporate into my coaching with business professionals and leaders. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable, and the classes were very informative. I also found the variety of tools and resources very helpful!”

Frequently Asked Questions:

How did the Certified Executive Coach (CEC) Program get its start?
  • At the Institute, we are passionate about integration work. We are also passionate about efficacious leadership. This program is a post-graduation culmination of these two passions!
  • We also noticed that after a coach is trained in the core competencies, they often have to take additional programs and certifications to navigate sponsored engagements effectively or to up-level sponsored engagements. These programs can cost up to $3-6k each. We decided to bring all key educational elements into one single program. This saves the coach massive amounts of time and money while integrating all the modalities into one comprehensive framework.
  • Additionally, we saw how other leadership coach training programs failed to provide an entry point. Breaking into the world of Executive Coaching and sponsored engagements can be challenging. To support practical application, students have the option to enroll in the Certification Track, which includes two Coaching Internships and 12 Coaching Supervision sessions, ensuring greater confidence, competence, and real-world experience.

Can I coach Executives if I haven’t been an Executive? 
  • Absolutely! Your expertise is in the coaching process. ​

What is the difference between Executive & Leadership Coaching?
  • They can be the same. However, a key difference is between sponsored and personal coaching engagements. Sponsored engagements are paid for by a company and typically have additional goals or direction for the coach. Therefore, delivering a coaching program must include essential factors such as establishing a baseline and tracking ROI. Personal coaching in the Executive or Leadership realm is when the leader or executive hires the coach for personal coaching support outside of the organization.
  • The CEC program educates each student to coach within sponsored engagements. 

How many ICF CCEs is the program?
  • Each time we run the CEC, we have to reapply for ICF CCEs. We are typically approved for 24 hours of CCEs (21 Core Competency / 3 Resource Development). Additionally, the ICF counts up to 10 hours of Coaching Supervision towards credential renewal.
​​
May I take each module separately?
  • The E-Course can be taken independently as a self-paced program.
  • Students who want applied experience and ICF CCEs may choose the Certification Track, which includes two Coaching Internships and 12 Coaching Supervision sessions. This optional track allows you to implement what you learn, gain personalized guidance, and earn additional CCE hours.
Optional Certification Track:
Students who wish to gain applied experience can enroll in the Certification Track. This includes:
  • Two Coaching Internships: Pairing with leaders to practice and apply executive coaching skills in real-world settings.Each coach is paired with two leaders to coach over a six-month period. 
  • 12 Coaching Supervision Sessions: Personalized guidance to navigate challenges, refine coaching presence, and gain confidence in leadership coaching engagements.
How much do Executive Coaches make? 
Contracts start at $6,000 per six-month engagement. Executive Coaches make between $250-$700/hr.
 

What do I need to succeed as an Executive Coach? 
To succeed at corporate engagements, you need three things: confidence in effective coaching approaches, an understanding of corporate contracting, and knowledge of the twelve core elements that executives face.

Our E-Course provides the training you need to build confidence and understanding in these areas. Students who choose the optional Certification Track also gain applied experience through internships and 12 Coaching Supervision sessions, which further prepares them for real-world engagements.​
