A Short Summary of ICF Malaysia Chapter

International Coach Federation is the accrediting body for Coaches and Coach Training Programs. ICF sets very high standards in competencies so certified Coaches can deliver their services with quality. There are about 25,000 Coaches around the world who are credentialed by ICF.

ICF Malaysia Chapter was formed as a non-profit organization, to officially represent ICF in Malaysia. We support registered members by organizing monthly professional development programs such as Live Webinars and Workshops.

Each year, we hold the International Coaching Week to reach out to the general public on the benefits of coaching.  This is an awareness program where we worked closely with corporations, non profits, communities and educational institutions.

We have progressed even further. In 2017, we successfully held the first International Coaching & Learning Conference in Putrajaya, the capital city of Malaysia. The next one will be in 2019. This conference is biennial.

ICF Malaysia Chapter is hoping to serve all coaches and the public with enthusiasm and professionalism.
