Fuller Seminary leadership professor J. Robert Clinton's researched why some Christian leaders finished well - meaning, they were godly and effective to the end. Lifelong learning was one of only 6 common factors.
You and I need to keep learning, growing, and changing if we are to be effective and finish well.
Our coaching programs are helpful lifelong learning processes. They not only teach you new information and skills, you learn how to learn, and help others to learn.
We offer a number of Elective Courses on various topics to build on your coaching skills. Each is approved by the International Coach Federation (ICF) as Approved Coach Specific Training Hours (ACSTH) in core competencies.
Elective Courses are taught in live online courses which are group training sessions done through the Internet or a normal telephone, designed to help you learn without the expense of traveling to a workshop. Each class consists of interactive teaching, discussion, demonstration, and practice. Live Teleclass Courses earn ICF training credits. For members of the Association of Christian Schools International you can earn CEUs. These courses are a great way to learn and interact from a distance.
Some courses have prerequisites. Use the chart below to find a course that interests you. Click on the title for more details and registration.

There are no dead-ends with our certificate programs. We have a lot of options for you!
The International Coach Federation (ICF) approved each as part of our Approved Coach Specific Training Hours (ACSTH) in core competencies. When you take these courses you will earn ICF training hours. You can use these training hours for your ICF membership, coach credential, or credential renewal.
The chart below shows our certificate programs in green and how to continue your learning with Elective Courses.
The Coaching Workshop Certificate Program is a 21-hour ICF-approved program. Continue your coaching training by taking Elective Courses for your own benefit or to complete the requirements for an ICF ACC credential. Later, add more Elective Courses or even take the Coaching Mastery Certificate Program to go all the way to a PCC.
The Coaching Mastery Certificate Program exceeds the training requirements for an ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC) credential with that one program. After that, you can take Elective Courses to continue your learning all the way to a PCC.
Previously we offered the Core Coaching Skills Certificate Program, which was a 60 or 61 hours program, depending on when it was taken. If you took CORE, continue your coaching training by taking Elective Courses. Take Coaching Excellence (Mentor-Coaching) to complete the requirements for an ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC) credential. After that, you can take Elective Courses to continue your learning all the way to an ICF PCC.
But I Trained With Another Organization...
Did you do some of your coaching training through another organization? No problem. You can take Elective Courses to build on your training. Find out from your previous training organization how many coach-specific training hours you've already taken. You may need to refer to the ICF's definition and rules for what constitutes a training hour. From there, join at the appropriate training level.
I am so confident that you will benefit from these Elective Courses that I offer a money back guarantee.
If you take an Elective Course and at any time before the 3rd teleclass determine that we haven't delivered as promised, email me at help@creativeresultsmanagement.com and I will promptly refund your registration fee.
No problem. No questions asked. You have my word on it. My friends think I'm CRAZY for doing this because they say "What if people just take advantage of you?"
To that, I say, why would I penalize the 99% of people in the world who are good people because of a few bad eggs? So, that's why I'm happy to offer this risk-free guarantee.
If we were face-to-face over a cup of coffee, I would answer all your questions about our Elective Courses. But since we’re not, let me do the next best thing …
