Leadership Coaching for Organizational Well-Being

Positive Transformation Starts With You

Make an Impact as an ICF-Certified Leadership Coach

It takes just one person to jumpstart a positive transformation. Could that person be you?

The Leadership Coaching for Organizational Well-Being certificate program empowers the next generation of leaders using a strengths-based approach and a supportive environment. In a collaborative setting, coaches learn the critical skills necessary to make a positive impact at work, in the community, and out in the world. 

We follow a research-based curriculum that prepares students from all walks of life for the International Coaching Federation (ICF) requirements and coaching competencies.
