The “MasterCoach ICI™” Coaching Training Program approved by ICF Level 1 and RNCP Level 6

The MasterCoach ICI™ training is our flagship program and the main gateway to the Institute. Designed with a resolutely practical and professional approach, it aims to transform each participant into a competent, credible, and immediately operational coach. Structured entirely in a coaching format, it promotes the direct application of learning and guarantees a long-lasting integration of skills, where purely theoretical training struggles to generate real impact.

To support this dynamic, ICI combines live remote training, intersession coaching, supervised practice, and access to an e-learning platform rich in resources. This framework is backed by the ongoing guidance of trainers who are all accredited MCC or PCC by the ICF, passing on their field experience with pragmatism, excellence, and rigor.

Furthermore, the MasterCoach ICI™ benefits from dual recognition, serving as a genuine guarantee of quality and legitimacy.

Dual ICF and RNCP Recognition: A Guarantee of Expertise and Institutional Recognition

ICF Level 1 Accreditation:
Our program is accredited Level 1 by the International Coaching Federation (ICF), the global benchmark for professional coaching. This international recognition attests to our compliance with the most demanding standards of the profession. It serves as a genuine passport to practice with complete credibility, both in France and abroad, and facilitates access to personal ICF certifications (ACC, PCC, MCC).

RNCP Level 6 Recognition:
The training is also registered in the National Directory of Professional Certifications (RNCP) at Level 6 (equivalent to a Bachelor’s degree), issued by France Compétences. This recognition by the French state officially validates the professional skills acquired during the curriculum. It not only guarantees the educational quality of the training, but also offers valuable institutional legitimacy for advancing within companies, launching your own business, or achieving a successful career transition.

Training Objectives

To train professional coaches of excellence and support them toward sustainable, recognized success.

To develop solid expertise: to transmit all the key competencies of professional coaching, enabling future coaches to intervene effectively in a variety of contexts – corporate, individual, or collective.

To foster impact and transformation: to learn how to support individuals and groups in developing their potential, clarifying their objectives, and implementing long-lasting changes.

To guarantee dual recognition, nationally and internationally: to allow participants to have their journey certified by the ICF (International Coaching Federation), the global benchmark in coaching, and to obtain an RNCP Level 6 professional certification, issued by the French state. This dual validation strengthens both their international credibility and their institutional legitimacy in the French market.

The keys to your success: an exclusive teaching approach

Our training program is built upon an exclusive five-pillar model. This methodology combines complementary learning modes and regular monitoring to help you progress faster and ensure the highest possible success rate at the end of your journey.

1. Content Delivery, Live and Remotely

Every week, from the comfort of your home, you meet with your group just as if you were in a physical classroom, with no travel required.
You are live with the trainer: you follow their presentations, view the PowerPoint slides and videos, ask your questions, and interact with the other participants.

2. Immediate Practical Application

Each training module consists of three core components:

  • Content delivery
  • Demonstrations conducted by the instructor
  • Immediate practice by the coaches-in-training

You benefit from live demonstrations and apply what you have just learned right away.
This is essential, as most coaches frequently work over the phone: you will practically learn to master this skill.

3. Inter-Session Co-Coaching

Between training sessions, you practice with peers enrolled in the same program.
This is your opportunity to train within a structured, low-stakes environment.
We provide a setup that facilitates practicing in pairs, either over the phone or face-to-face, depending on your preference.
And you can continue to collaborate with your study group for as long as you wish, even after the training program has concluded.

4. Access to the Institute’s Online Campus

Upon registration, you receive a personal code granting unlimited access to the Institute’s knowledge base.
There you will find teaching materials and audio recordings that review or extend the topics covered during the evening training sessions.
You can listen to what interests you, whenever and however you like, to reinforce your learning.
You also gain access to various online services, such as discussion forums where you can reconnect with members of your group.

5. Post-Training Follow-Up

Once the training ends, you are not left on your own. You have the opportunity to join a post-training success group made up of fellow coaches who have completed the same track.
Here you benefit from guidance on the progress of your business project and continue to practice with your peers. This group alternates between self-managed sessions among participants and regular support from a coach. A key advantage that makes all the difference: you can participate in this group for as long as needed, without paying a single penny more.

Plus: throughout the year, we host free remote practice days exclusively for ICI coaches, helping you keep your skills sharp.

Why Remote Training?

Just like most American coaches have been doing for over 30 years:

  • You follow a comprehensive and practical training program.
  • From your own home, at your own pace.
  • Which leads you to an equivalent or higher level than traditional face-to-face training courses.
  • Within the warm environment of a group committed to the same path.
  • With the specialist in remote coaching training: 26 years of experience and more than 8,000 coaches trained.
  • And at a significantly lower cost, while acquiring the exact same skills upon completion.
