For ICF Training Centers · Cohort Analysis

Ten mandatory mentoring hours.
Every student seen individually.

Every candidate you train logs 10 hours of mentor coaching. In the group hours, no single student gets a rigorous, individual read of their own coaching. We give each of them one objective ICF-marker analysis per hour — and give your program the cohort outcome-evidence schools rarely have.

37 PCC Markers · every judgement backed by a verbatim quote + timestamp · benchmarked against ICF's official assessor keys

The blind spot in group mentoring

Group mentoring is efficient for teaching the model — but it has a structural blind spot. In a group, the mentor's attention is divided by design, so no single student gets a rigorous, personalized read of their own coaching against all 37 PCC markers.

Your candidates finish the 10 hours certified as attended — but the center has no per-student evidence of what each one actually improved. That gap is where candidates fail their eventual submission, and where the program's outcome story goes quiet.

What if every group hour also produced an individual, evidence-backed assessment for each student? That is the whole idea.

What each student gets · 10 hours, 10 analyses

For each of their 10 mandatory mentoring hours, the student's recorded coaching is analyzed against ICF's 8 core competencies + 37 PCC markers:

📋 37 markers, judged one by one

Each marker scored against the official ICF standard — the same instrument used in the credentialing evaluation.

🔍 Every call backed by evidence

Each judgement gives the verbatim quote + timestamp it rests on. The student can verify it against their own recording — visible evidence, not a black-box score.

✍️ "Try saying it this way"

For each marker not yet observed, a concrete rewrite the student can practice in the next session.

📈 A personal growth dashboard

Their own radar + timeline across the 10 sessions — where they started, where they are now, session over session.

The group hour teaches the principle; the report tells this student, specifically, where they stand and what to practice next — the individual attention the group format cannot deliver.

What your program gets

On top of everything each student receives, the center gets a layer individuals never see:

📊 A cohort-level view of skill growth — your outcome evidence

Where students start, where they end, which competencies the cohort is weak on, and the movement across the program. This is what schools are asked for and rarely have: not "we delivered 10 hours," but "here is our cohort's measured progress against the official ICF standard." It sharpens your teaching — target the markers the data shows are weak — and it sells your next cohort.

🎯 The 10-hour requirement, tracked as a byproduct

Each analysis corresponds to a logged mentoring hour, so completion status per student is visible at a glance rather than reconstructed from a spreadsheet.

Why you can trust the instrument

📏 ICF's own instrument
It uses ICF's publicly published 8 core competencies + 37 PCC markers — the same official evaluation tool, not one person's subjective feel. Designed and calibrated by Nicolas (ICF PCC · completed ICF's official PCC-Marker Assessor training).

🔍 Every judgement is auditable
Each marker call gives the verbatim quote + timestamp behind it. You and your students can check every call against the recording — evidence you verify, not a score you take on faith.

📊 Benchmarked against the official assessor keys
In a blind benchmark against ICF's own official PCC-assessor answer keys — 5 official demonstration sessions, 4 held out of calibration, ~510 individual marker judgements — the tool agreed with the official call on ~83% of text-judgeable markers (≈85% under ICF's own "assessors may disagree" convention). Disagreements concentrate exactly where trained human assessors disagree with each other.
Note: markers needing video / tone (nonverbal signals) are excluded; a single blind run varies (74–88% on one session); built on the official ICF instrument — it does not replace, and is not equivalent to, ICF's own certification evaluation.

Founding partners

We price the outcome, not the paperwork: one seat per candidate, covering their whole mandatory mentoring block.

First partners · special terms

Credential-track seat

One seat per candidate = their 10 mandatory mentor-coaching hours, each backed by an objective ICF-marker analysis · plus the cohort dashboard for your program.

Each student also gets their own personal dashboard — exactly like an individual client. The cohort-level view is the center-only layer.

Founding-partner pricing for the first centers. This is just launching; the first partners get founding terms and help shape it. Let's look at your cohort together and set the right number — book a short demo.
