Who May Take the Career Coach Master Professional Certification Course

Please note that this is not an introductory course. It is intended for professional career coaches including those who have achieved a high level of success in the basic Career Coach Certificate Course Online offered by International Association of Professions Career College.

These advanced certificate courses are for outstanding graduates of IAP Career College basic certificate courses. To be accepted into the Career Coach Master Professional Certification Course, you should have earned a grade of at least 80% on the final test for the Career Coach Certificate Course Online offered by International Association of Professions Career College. Students earning a passing grade of between 60% and 80% on the basic course may be admitted to a Master course if space is available.

If you are a professional career coach who wishes to enroll in the Career Coach Master Professional Certification Course, but you have not yet taken a prerequisite course from IAP Career College, you may take the basic course as a corequisite with (at the same time as) the Career Coach Master Professional Certification Course.

You can take advantage of this option by registering and paying for the basic course at the same time as you apply for the Career Coach Master Professional Certification Course, then earn a passing grade for the basic course.

To ensure that the student has personal access to a Faculty Member, only 15 students will be accepted into each Career Coach Master Professional Certification Course.

What Happens in the Career Coach Master Professional Certification Program

The Career Coach Master Professional Certification Course is an online learning course with one optional assignment and one required assignment described below in the “ASSIGNMENTS” paragraphs. Students must earn a passing grade to successfully complete the course and receive their Master Career Coaching Professional (MCCP) certification.

Like IAP Career College’s basic courses, this part-time online certification course is self-directed, which means you may study and complete the assignments at times that are most convenient for you from the comfort of your own home.

The Career Coach Master Professional Certification Course has a recommended completion date of 12 weeks from the starting date or 120 hours. However, you may choose to complete the Career Coach Master Certification Program in as little as 4 weeks or as long as 24 weeks, depending on your schedule.

Throughout the course you can receive up to four hours of personal teaching assistance or professional mentorship from a faculty member. That’s up to one half hour per week for 8 weeks with personal attention from a professional mentor.

Although experienced career coaches may find it is possible to successfully complete the Career Coach Master Professional Certification Course without assistance from a faculty member, it is recommended that you take advantage of this resource to receive maximum value from this certification course.

Evaluated on a pass/fail basis, the Master Project consists of a written paper and, depending on the topic, may be supplemented by other materials such as video, before and after photographs, or client testimonials.
