How many hours of my training count towards my ICF credential?

iPEC hours and the ICF

iPEC’s Coach Training Program offers all training hours necessary to apply for the ICF ACC and/or PCC credential.

Once certified by iPEC, you will have completed 160 hours with a combination of self-study, assignments, interaction with the trainers, attendance in class and much more. The ICF only requires 125 hours of coach specific training to apply for the ACC and/or PCC credential, thus your iPEC Certification exceeds the education hours requirement.

To apply for the ICF’s MCC credential you will need an additional 40 hours of Coach specific education (200 hours total) in order to apply. This can be satisfied by completing 1 COR.E Dynamics niche certification (40 hours) with iPEC.
