WABC Accredited (Level 2 – Leader-as-Coach) global mark is a program accreditation distinction that ensures you’re offering the most comprehensive and robust leader-as-coach training available in the world.
This level is for programs that develop leaders-as-coaches at certified-level.
The WABC Accredited global mark is a program accreditation distinction that ensures you’re offering the most comprehensive and robust leader-as-coach training available in the world.
Level 2 – Leader-as-Coach programs develop leaders-as-coaches at certified-level who represent many professional roles (e.g., leader, manager, supervisor). Such programs focus on developing core coaching skills within the context of a leadership role and are for participants who either have had little or no previous experience with coaching, or who already have some leader-as-coach coaching experience that they now wish to consolidate fully with best practice. We identify practice in this context to be the application of coaching skills, with appropriate recognition of the imbalance of power held by them and individual team members, with the goal of supporting the development and empowerment of others and improving performance in the delivery of strategic business and organizational goals and objectives.
When you successfully complete the WABC Program Accreditation Process, your program receives the prestigious WABC Accredited (Level 2 – Leader-as-Coach) mark.
Your participation in our rigorous program accreditation process engages you in a continuous lifecycle—from initial accreditation to annual monitoring to re-accreditation every three years to ensure you deliver the highest, most relevant training to leaders-as-coaches today and tomorrow.
WABC welcomes applications from providers whose programs embrace a range of educational learning and assessment methods
WABC Accredited (Level 2 – Leader-as-Coach) Programs develop leaders-as-coaches at certified-level and are delivered at a professional level of engagement.
As such, this level of program accreditation is only available to training programs that offer leader-as-coach coaching as the main focus of their curriculum. This means 100% of the learning hours within the program must be focused on the practice, theory and/or research of leader-as-coach coaching.
WABC offers program accreditation to acknowledge and reward excellence in training and development in leader-as-coach coaching. Your route to achieve WABC Accredited is via our program accreditation process developed to enhance the confidence of all stakeholders by providing transparent scrutiny of programs against robust and reliable principles and standards.
Accreditation of training provision is a critical benchmarking process for everyone interested in developing sound practice in training and research in leader-as-coach coaching.
The WABC Program Accreditation Process route to achieving these standards and principles is, however, not prescribed, and WABC welcomes applications from providers whose programs embrace a range of educational learning and assessment methods. The principle of equivalence is used to consider their “fitness for purpose” and to determine if they achieve appropriate outcomes consistently.
Even if your program is brand new, or requires significant changes to meet WABC’s standards, you’ll most likely be eligible to register in our WABC Program Accreditation Process.
*Some variability expected based on participants’ experience-level and your program’s approach
The WABC Accredited mark means:
WABC Accredited is a testament to the excellence of your program and sets you apart from other training providers. Participants know that WABC prepares them for the practical challenges of leader-as-coach coaching in organizational and business-specific settings.
Because it is based on best practice for both leader-as-coach coaching and program accreditation processes, WABC Accredited broadcasts your program meets the highest global standards and is specifically tailored to leader-as-coach coaching, not coaching in general.
Whether your training is available to the open market or to employees within your organization, effective leader-as-coach coaching training can transform how people perform their role, no matter their career stage or level of seniority.
With many levels of accreditation for both leader-as-coach coaching and business coaching to suit your needs — you’ll be able to build one or many programs that bring out the best in your participants.
WABC Accredited applications are evaluated by fully qualified, independent assessors. They assess the program’s approaches, learning models, standards and competencies your program addresses and the quality systems it adheres to, ensuring your training meets WABC’s robust criteria.
Our transparent program accreditation process also offers providers access to fully qualified, independent advisers who provide personalized advisory support and feedback designed to make you think more critically, creatively and strategically about your program offer.
Earning WABC Accredited for your program means graduates of your program are eligible to receive their own WABC Certified Leader-as-Coach™ (CLAC™) credential.
CLAC is an evidence-based WABC credential held by leaders, managers and supervisors around the world. As a highly respected global credential, CLAC positions them as a professional with specialized leader-as-coach coaching skills enabling them to support others and improve performance in the delivery of strategic business and organizational goals and objectives.
Carrying the WABC Accredited distinction means you get to build your program’s brand with the support of a global organization committed to excellence.
You will gain the right to leverage the WABC Accredited brand in your marketing, program and training materials. You will also have access to exclusive opportunities with WABC to build your thought leadership profile, promote your services and access a global community of business coaches, leaders-as-coaches, clients and other stakeholders.
The WABC Program Accreditation Process leading to the WABC Accredited mark enables you to learn an enormous amount about effective leader-as-coach coaching, as your curriculum is measured against WABC’s expansive, detailed knowledge base.
Fine-tune your program for success with helpful, personalized feedback during the accreditation process, so you can offer best-in-class training built on research-informed standards and best practice in leader-as-coach coaching and training alike.
Earning WABC Accredited also means you’re contributing to the global body of knowledge about leader-as-coach coaching as an evolving, innovative practice. In this way, your program accreditation shapes leader-as-coach coaching practice, development and self-regulation around the world, to create even greater efficacy and impacts.
Whether you are a leader-as-coach trainer, a coaching organization, or an institution solidifying your existing offering, building a new program or looking to offer your participants a premium leader-as-coach training experience, WABC Accredited distinguishes you apart from the competition.

The accreditation level you choose will be based on your program’s focus and level of leader-as-coach development
Let’s ensure Level 2 – Leader-as-Coach is right for you:
If you choose to pursue both levels at the same time (the highly favored approach), your time and investment are maximized too – you only need to enroll in one WABC Program Accreditation Process and pay one initial program accreditation fee (you earn two accreditations for the price of one)!
Our years of proven experience have shown us that exploring our good mutual fit is essential at this very early stage
What happens: You’ll contact WABC for an exploratory discussion(s) about your eligibility. If we’re a good mutual fit and you’re ready to proceed, WABC invites you to complete our WABC Applicant Program Overview form* which requests key information about your organization and program offer. Your information is reviewed by the WABC Accreditation & Credentialing Director. The purpose of this form is to help WABC ensure, at the earliest possible stage, that your organization’s program meets the basic eligibility requirements for the WABC Program Accreditation Process for Level 2 – Leader-as-Coach. There is no fee for this review.
With WABC, program providers can expect a program accreditation process unlike any other in the coaching industry.
In fact, the path to earn the WABC Accredited mark is an important professional and business developmental opportunity in its own right. By design, you will move through our process of progressive stages and steps that enable you to showcase your program offering for evaluation.
Along the way, we provide personalized advisory support and feedback specially tailored for you with the specific purpose of helping you think more critically, creatively and strategically about your program offer, and how to align with WABC’s global evidence-based standards to offer best-in-class training.
Our robust process rewards excellence and optimizes your program for success – we’re excited to present our process highlights
What happens: You’ll complete our quick WABC Applicant Registration form (available directly from WABC) and pay the appropriate fee. Assuming you still meet the admission requirements, you’ll proceed to the next stage. If not, an appropriate refund is issued.
As you progress through the WABC Program Accreditation Process, the program provider’s route to achieving WABC’s standards and principles is not prescribed. We welcome applications from providers who offer courses and programs that embrace a wide range of educational learning and assessment methods.
Our assessment uses equivalence to determine if programs deliver appropriate, consistent outcomes, no matter their approach.
The broader business coaching community benefits from your innovation too—as a provider of a WABC Accredited Program, you’re helping to build the global body of knowledge about leader-as-coach coaching as an evolving, impactful practice.
What happens: You receive your WABC Welcome Package (contains all the resources you need) and the Director matches you with a WABC Adviser. In your first meeting (virtual) with your adviser, you’ll discuss your WABC Applicant Program Overview form, the eligibility of your program, any initial queries you have in relation to preparing and submitting your WABC Self-Assessment Report and target dates for your Report submission. Assuming your journey continues with us*, you’ll receive your WABC Accredited Candidate Package (digital badge and text) enabling you to display the prestigious WABC Accredited Candidate (Level 2 – Leader-as-Coach) mark on your website and other program related materials.
WABC continuously aligns with program accreditation best practice in established professional industries around the world, so we can continue to optimize our program accreditation process informed by the most relevant, leading practices offered in the market today. WABC’s proprietary accreditation process includes these key hallmarks of high-quality program accreditation processes:
What happens: You prepare your near-final WABC Self-Assessment Report for feedback from your adviser. Your adviser reviews the Report and provides written feedback to you on how to further develop it for formal submission. You’ll then have your second meeting (virtual) with your adviser to confirm your understanding of their feedback and explore suitable ways of addressing it. Once you’re satisfied that you’ve addressed the feedback, you’ll send your final WABC Self-Assessment Report to WABC.
Our process enhances the confidence of all invested in our industry—leaders-as-coaches, employers, clients, training providers or member of the public—by providing transparent scrutiny of programs against robust, reliable professional principles and standards.
WABC Accredited Programs intentionally offer a blend of professional practice and theoretical elements at every level of the program, although there is proportionally less focus on professional skills development in our higher levels of program accreditation.
Our process allows providers to identify and describe their educational philosophy, and theoretical and professional program underpinnings to demonstrate how they achieve robust and high-quality outcomes for participants, employers and clients alike.
When you engage with a program bearing the WABC Accredited mark, you can be assured that the training delivers the practical skills and outcomes that align with research-based best practice in both leader-as-coach coaching and training alike.
What happens: You now enter the assessment stage. Your WABC Self-Assessment Report is first evaluated by an individual WABC Assessor* against the specific criteria identified for this level and their findings are then submitted to the WABC Award Board* who evaluates all relevant information and submits its decision to WABC.
The value of the WABC Accredited mark is not just born from the standards that inform it, but also from the evaluative processes that lead to it.
At WABC, we take very seriously the need to accomplish two goals for the benefit of all stakeholders:
WABC strikes the right balance towards realizing those two distinct goals through the creation of WABC standing committees—the WABC Accreditation & Credentialing Team, and three supporting WABC Accredited Decision Boards: WABC Accredited Assessment Board, WABC Accredited Award Board and WABC Accredited Appeal Board.
The team and boards are comprised of highly skilled experts who are passionate about leader-as-coach coaching and serving our community. They are accountable to strictly uphold WABC’s global evidence-based standards and accreditation best practice.
The purpose of all standing committees is to:
Ultimately, WABC maintains oversight of its standards and safeguards the program accreditation process, while simultaneously enabling experts to independently carry out program accreditation related activities. Taken altogether, this thoughtfully considered and balanced-approach raises the quality, credibility and profile of leader-as-coach coaching worldwide to the benefit of all stakeholders.
What happens: WABC ratifies the decision and then contacts you with next steps including a copy of the WABC Assessment Event Report – capturing the entire assessment process – for full transparency. If you don’t agree with the decision, you have the right to appeal.
The WABC Accredited global mark is a distinction that ensures you’re offering the most comprehensive and robust leader-as-coach coaching training available in the world. Fewer than 1% of the world’s leader-as-coach training programs have met our standard of accreditation excellence. As part of this elite group, your mark makes an unparalleled statement to the marketplace about your experience, your dedication and your commitment to quality in advancing the standard of leader-as-coach coaching globally.
Your program earns its WABC Accredited (Level 2 – Leader-as-Coach) qualification once you:
To prove your excellence to the world, you’ll receive your personalized WABC Accredited Promo Package (digital package of letter, certificate, badge and personalized verification page (linked to your badge)) enabling you to display the prestigious WABC Accredited (Level 2 – Leader-as-Coach) mark on your website and other program related materials.
Being the best means renewing relevance and status in our global marketplace
What happens: As a WABC Accredited program, you will safeguard your accreditation by meeting various provider’s responsibilities over the course of your three-year process lifecycle—from initial accreditation through annual monitoring to re-accreditation.
Leader-as-coach coaching is by nature a supportive, disruptive and progressive intervention that must stay current and relevant to real-world business and organizational needs.
WABC’s global standards, the WABC Program Accreditation Process and programs bearing the WABC Accredited mark must adapt to the changing market demands and growing body of knowledge on effective leader-as-coach coaching.
Many program accreditation processes in the marketplace today are poorly designed and deeply flawed—often a mere paper exercise without sufficient, or any, independent scrutiny, subject matter expertise, and ongoing recalibration to evidence-based best practice. Many other accreditations may simply represent a single, limited snapshot in time.
The WABC Program Accreditation Process is rigorous but not onerous. Among the key hallmarks of WABC’s high-quality program accreditation process is that both the provider and WABC undergo continuous review and improvement cycles.
When you successfully complete the WABC Program Accreditation Process, a value-added benefit is that graduates of your program are eligible to earn the WABC Certified Leader-as-Coach™ (CLAC™) credential.
CLAC—held by professionals around the world—is a highly respected evidence-based global credential that positions your graduates as leaders-as-coaches with certified-level knowledge and specialized coaching skills.
Your graduates must:
You have the option to include a WABC CLAC Promo Package in your program fee (this is a highly favored approach). We’ll discuss your approach at the time you enroll in our program accreditation process.
Accreditation is a voluntary process by which a nongovernmental body publicly recognizes an institution or program that has successfully met predetermined qualifications through initial and follow-up evaluations.
Yes! WABC understands the critical need to provide guidelines and principles around best practice to combat accreditation mills, substandard or no academic and quality assurance, and other fraudulent market activity.
With this in mind, WABC continuously monitors other leading accreditation bodies in various established professional fields around the world to ensure its own practices are aligned with the very best and relevant in the marketplace today.
WABC offers program accreditation at many levels for both business coaching and leader-as-coach coaching programs. WABC does not offer institutional accreditation.
It is the most rigorous level of qualification available to programs by an external accreditor. Program accreditation processes that follow industry best practice ensure their accredited programs require validation, carry re-accreditation requirements and are subject to revocation. WABC Accredited adheres to these best practices.
WABC program accreditation focuses solely on programs dedicated to developing professional business coaches or leaders-as-coaches, not for programs that offer coaching as one part of the curriculum. This focus makes it different from accreditations offered by other bodies. To be eligible, your leader-as-coach program would need to meet this basic requirement:
The best time to enroll with us is as early as possible when creating your new program.
Some additional guidance:
Generally yes. Your pilot participants are eligible to receive their own WABC credential once they have successfully completed all your Program requirements (as specified by WABC) and met all WABC credential requirements within applicable deadlines.
At the beginning of your Accreditation Journey, we co-create your personalized time line, including target dates, to ensure you’re in control of what matters to you, while also preserving WABC’s commitment to provide you with a value-added, richly supported experience.
Factors influencing your time line may include:
Given WABC’s considered experience in offering this service, we offer providers a generous amount of time based on the level:
Yes, although you must plan to provide all your reporting requirements and an ongoing working relationship with WABC in English, as WABC and all program accreditation team members operate using English.
If you don’t speak English, please plan accordingly. You must have one member of your team who has an English language qualification and can easily communicate with your adviser in English. Your submission must also be in English.
We do not require WABC-conducted examinations for WABC Accredited Programs’ graduates to gain their own WABC credentials. We intentionally set up the program accreditation requirements so that WABC Accredited Program providers must provide the final assessment.
This approach provides an appropriate level of independence between the program providers and WABC, so that WABC has no undue influence on graduate assessment decisions.
Our rigorous program accreditation process ensures that the provider’s assessment is appropriate, and our annual monitoring safeguards the provider’s training provision over the accreditation lifecycle.
Our WABC Accredited levels – rooted in real-world organizational and business needs – cover both breadth and depth of development in leader-as-coach coaching. Becoming WABC Accredited will take your open enrollment program to the next level or enhance your internal program’s relevance.

Our company is thrilled to be the first in the world to achieve the WABC Accredited® mark for our two leader-as-coach programs, The Blueprint: How to Lead with a Coach Approach and The Blueprint: How to Lead with a Coach Approach – Credential Edition. What we witnessed from the leaders was profound – they quickly grew more self-aware, confident and resilient, and were able to navigate complexity with clarity, purpose and a renewed sense of possibility. And as leaders, they turned their learning into meaningful action—elevating the people around them, sparking trust, deepening accountability and lifting the well-being and performance of their teams.
What makes these programs exceptional is their foundation. They are built on WABC’s evidence-based competencies and global standards, grounded in decades of research and shaped by real-world coaching and leadership practice.
Any participant will tell you—the transformation is undeniable. They leave not only equipped to accelerate their careers but grounded in a deeper understanding of themselves and empowered to lift others, strengthen their teams and lead with confidence and impact in today’s rapidly evolving professional environments.
We serve a diverse and fast-evolving leadership landscape in Singapore, where organizations are navigating new expectations for collaboration, resilience, and human-centered leadership. For years, I had been designing and delivering coaching interventions that helped leaders grow in these areas. As demand increased, it became clear that our program needed the kind of structure, quality assurance, and global legitimacy that only a respected global accreditation body could provide.
WABC’s reputation for rigorous professional standards and its grounding in evidence-based business coaching made it the natural partner for us. Their framework aligned well with the needs of the leaders we support—who operate in complex, multicultural environments and require practical, applicable coaching skills that strengthen their ability to think strategically, influence effectively, and build meaningful relationships across their teams.
Going through the WABC Program Accreditation Process was an unexpectedly rewarding experience. The WABC Accreditation Team was kind, responsive, thoughtful and genuinely invested in helping us bring out the best in our program. Their guidance pushed us to articulate our intentions more clearly, refine our content, and design a learning journey that would set leaders up for fundamental behavioral shifts. The process helped us strengthen both the depth and the discipline of our approach.
Earning the WABC Accredited® mark has elevated our work in multiple ways. Leaders now experience a more intentional, structured coaching methodology, and they appreciate that their learning aligns with a globally recognized professional standard. The accreditation has also offered our participants a pathway to pursue the Registered Corporate Coach™ (RCC™) credential, which they have found motivating and meaningful for their professional development.
For us as a program provider, the accreditation has brought clarity, credibility and renewed purpose. It reinforced our belief that coaching can play a pivotal role in shaping future-ready leadership in Singapore and provided the solid foundation for continued growth.
We are proud to partner with WABC—not only for the recognition, but for the learning, support and global perspective that have strengthened the way we serve leaders and organizations. The accreditation has set a strong trajectory for our program, and we look forward to expanding its impact in the years ahead.
Weplusnetwork Ltd is an Italian association of executive consultants and coaches, experts in developing leaders, managers and other talented professionals within organizations. We have solid experience in designing and delivering business coach training programs, and many of our faculty trainers hold WABC credentials and memberships.
With companies’ growing interest in reinforcing coaching competencies for managers, HR professionals and entrepreneurs, we designed a short but intensive program for senior professionals and managers interested in gaining a better understanding of how business coaching can improve effectiveness within their organizations.
We have operated as a Business Coaching Training School since 2013, and received the WABC Accredited (Level 1 – RCC)® credential in 2015. WABC recognition has been a distinctive mark for our training offers, and our alumni have enjoyed being part of an international cohort that acknowledges WABC evidence-based competencies and professional standards for business coaching.
Many HR professionals and managers of large, multinational or Italian companies have chosen our school because we could offer a credentialing path with special attention to organizational and business needs for people development paths.
In 2020 we successfully achieved the “re-accreditation” of our Business Coaching Lab program. We also plan to additionally pursue the WABC Accredited (Level 2 – CBC)® distinction in 2021. This choice is not rooted only in market issues, but also in the “professional growth” that WABC can offer to WABC Accredited® programs. The WABC re-accreditation process allowed us to systematize and enrich training content offered to delegates, and to confer with senior WABC Accredited® advisers during the process. WABC proves very helpful to keep our programs up to date, distinctive and reinforced with global best practices.
We can attest to the value WABC provides for both training participants and training providers.
WABC’s clear focus on business coaching is the reason why we decided to choose them as our accreditor for our Shift Corporate Coach Program. Our clients are business leaders, corporate coaches and HR professionals who appreciate the merit and significant credibility that the WABC Accredited® mark brings to our program. Our clients value the extremely high standards WABC sets to ensure that our program is top notch. WABC’s founder, Wendy Johnson, and the WABC Program Accreditation Team have continually supported us as we grow. Their guidance and support have been invaluable and exceeded all expectations.
WABC Accredited global mark is a distinction that ensures you’re offering the most comprehensive and robust leader-as-coach training available in the world.
