How to Afford Coach Training: 4 Ways to Pay for iPEC®

iPEC®'s ICF Level 2 accredited Coach Training Program is $9,995. You don't have to pay it all at once, and you may not have to pay it yourself. Here are four ways students make it fit: start with Coaching Fundamentals, spread the cost with 0% interest monthly payments, use employer funding, or use VA benefits.

1. Start With Coaching Fundamentals

Want to try iPEC® before you commit to the full program? Coaching Fundamentals is the program's first live 3-day module, and you can take it on its own for $1,995. You get:

• 30 ICF-accredited training hours
• The first 30 of the program's 90 hours of live training
• A certificate of completion that builds toward your Certified Professional Coach (CPC) certification
• 27 SHRM PDCs and 27 HRCI recertification hours, if you work in HR

If you continue into the full program, the $1,995 counts toward your $9,995 tuition. So you see how iPEC® trains coaches before you make the full investment, and nothing you've spent is lost.

2. Pay Over Time With 0% Interest

You can pay the full tuition at once, or spread it out with 0% interest monthly payments. Payments are finished before your final training module, so how many months you get depends on when you enroll. An admissions coach can show you what your monthly payment would be for the class you choose.

3. Ask Your Employer to Fund It

Many students use employer tuition assistance or professional development funds. Coaching skills carry straight into leading people, managing teams and handling hard conversations at work, which makes the training easy to connect to your job.

Your admissions coach can give you what most purchasing departments ask for:

• A sole-source letter. It confirms that iPEC® is the only provider of its Coach Training Program, which many companies need before they approve a purchase. It also outlines the curriculum and the certifications you earn.
• An invoice. Your company can submit it as a request for payment or a purchase order.

If you or your employer care about HR credentials, the full program is approved for 67 SHRM PDCs and 70 HRCI recertification hours.

4. Use VA Benefits

iPEC® accepts VA Chapter 31 Vocational Rehabilitation benefits. If you're a veteran, talk with an admissions coach about using them for your training.

What Your Tuition Covers

Whichever way you pay, the $9,995 includes 160 ICF-accredited training hours, all 10 ICF mentor coaching hours, 48 hours of peer coaching, your final performance evaluation and two certifications: the CPC and the Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner (ELI-MP).
