Training and Certification Process
Becoming a Certified Axiogenics® Coach (CAC)
What does it mean to be a Certified Axiogenics® Coach?
It means that you are certified and licensed to use our Axiogenics intellectual property in your coaching practice, whether you are an internal or independent coach.
How do you become a Certified Axiogenics® Coach
There are 3 parts:
- Foundations Program
- Coach Training Program
- Certification Process
The Foundations Program and the Coach Training can be done in either order or simultaneously. Our “ideal” is that you start the Foundations Program first, and then take the Coach Training whenever it is subsequently offered. However, this is not a hard policy.
Foundations Program
This is our basic coaching process. It is what our coaches deliver to their clients. Is essential (and required) that coaches who want to become a Certified Axiogenics® Coach go through this program as a client and gain the benefit of learning, applying, experiencing, and living the “SMARTER” principles we teach in the context of their own life.
The Foundations Program is typically delivered either one-on-one or in a group (when available) over the phone/conference call with 8 weekly 60-90 minute sessions. It includes a 100 page workbook, a number of worksheets and support materials, and makes full use of the person’s VQ Profile Assessment Report.
Typical Fees*: $3,500 (on-on-one), $1,250 (group)
*Because the Foundations Program can be delivered by any Certified Axiogenics® Coach, the fees may vary depending on the coach.
Coaching Training Program
In this training, when combined with the Foundations Program experience, the student will learn everything they need to learn to begin actually coaching clients and to begin the activities required to pass certification.
- More about the science that is the basis of Axiogenics,
- How the VQ Profile Assessment works, what it all means, and how to debrief it with clients
- The meaning, purpose and intent of all the parts of the coaching curriculum/workbook.
- Business development and logistics
The coach training is delivered in either of two ways (your option):
- In-person workshop format over 2 ½ days
- Group Webinar over 12 weeks (90 minutes per week)
Fees1: $3,500 plus any travel or other expenses. Includes First Year License Fee.
Certification Process
Certification is NOT automatic or guaranteed. To pass certification, in addition to completing the above, the candidate must:
- Conduct 10 “First Steps Assessment consultation”,
- Document 2 clients who have paid for and completed the Foundations Program (payment requirement is waived for “internal coaches”), and
