About Us

In 1997 the International Coaching Certification Standards Board was formed to develop a formal accreditation process for coaching  and to advance the areas of coaching specialties. 

The ICCSB merged with the National Society of Executive & Business Coaches. The NSEBC began board certification of business and executive coaches in 1989.

The ICCSB increased the board certification from 5 areas of specialties and expanded that to 11 areas of specialties by 2014. The area of specialties will continue to grow as more accredited coaching programs expand.
