Parent Coach Professionals is pleased to announce that its Parent Coach Trainers Academy is now a Registered Credential Training Provider for the Board Certified Coach credential, administered by the Center for Credentialing & Education. The course has been approved to provide 30 hours of qualifying training toward the Board Certified Coach credential, creating an additional professional credentialing opportunity for participants who complete the training.
The Parent Coach Trainers Academy is designed for professionals, parents, and others interested in developing parent coaching skills for professional or personal growth. The course provides 30 hours of interactive instruction and practicum experience focused on developing foundational coaching skills and applying them specifically to coaching parents. Participants have extensive opportunities to practice these skills and receive feedback from experienced facilitators. Those who successfully complete the course receive recognition as a Certified Parent Coach through Parent Coach Professionals. The next Parent Coach Trainers Academy will begin in February 2027.
“We are excited that our training can now contribute toward a nationally recognized coaching credential while continuing to provide the specialized skills needed to effectively coach parents,” said Mary Hickey, Co-Owner of Parent Coach Professionals. “Our course is highly experiential. Participants don’t just learn about coaching; they practice these skills, receive feedback, and demonstrate their ability to apply them. By the time they complete the course, they have built both the competency and confidence to put those skills into practice with parents.”
