Mentoring and Supervision — Centre for Coaching Switzerland

Community of Practice

The Centre for Coaching aims to build a thriving Community of Practice in collaboration with its certified mentor and supervisor-trained coaches. This initiative is designed to create a dedicated space for Integral Coaches who have successfully completed the six-month CfD (ACC???) programme.

The Community of Practice will:

support ongoing learning
promote professional development
provide alumni with opportunities to deepen their coaching skills through structured mentoring and supervision sessions.

These sessions will be facilitated by trained mentors and supervisors with Integral Coach training and an in-depth understanding of the models used in CfD programmes.

Proposed ICF Group Mentor Offering

ICF Group Mentor Sessions

10 hours for Core Competencies.
Maximum of 7 participants per group.
Meets the International Coaching Federation’s (ICF) requirement for 10 hours of mentor coaching for credential renewal.
Focused on ICF core competencies and practical application.
Held monthly. Once a group starts, it becomes a closed group to maintain momentum and reduce interruptions. New groups will be started for those who miss the intake.
These sessions are meticulously designed to align with the International Coaching Federation (ICF) core competencies but holding the Integral way in mind. Alumni can claim these hours toward the 10 mentoring hours required by the ICF for renewal. (Or your credentialing if you are missing any hours). Once groups are set up, they become closed to maximise learning.
NOTE: ICF states that Mentor coaching hours count as Core Competency CCE credits. For each ACC renewal cycle, 10 hours of mentor coaching must be received over a full three-month period or longer. Of the 10 hours required, at least three (3) must be completed one-to-one with a mentor coach. The remaining seven (7) hours may be completed one-to-one or in a group setting.
Price per package: CHF2490

Additionally, there will be an Open Supervision or Mentor Group held monthly, which operates as a stand-alone session. This group does not require ongoing participation and is designed for coaches seeking flexible, ad-hoc learning opportunities.
