 ∙  Differentiate yourself from uncertified or unverified coaches
 ∙  Strengthen your professional brand

It’s that simple — no technical setup needed on your part.

Question 22

Why We Require an English Profile (and Why It’s an Advantage)

Accepted Answer

We ask every coach to provide an English version of their profile because English is the primary language of the global coaching industry. Most ICF training programs, credential evaluations, coaching tools, and international clients operate in English, which means having a high-quality English profile significantly increases your professional visibility.
Requiring an English profile also ensures consistency, quality, and clarity across our entire platform. It helps us present your work in the most professional way possible, regardless of your native language.
Coaches are welcome to add additional languages to reach local audiences, but the English profile serves as the universal, globally accessible version—allowing you to attract clients from any country and communicate your credentials with confidence.
