Susan Britton, an MCC coach, explains how to pass ICF audio exams by focusing on five core skills: setting clear agreements, maintaining coach presence, fostering partnership, evoking awareness, and letting clients articulate their learning. You don't need to hit every marker.
Susan here. Got a little series going on tips for passing the ICF audio exams, whether it's for your ACC or for your PCC exam. One of the nice things to know is that you do not have to hit every single marker or every single minimum skill requirement for those exams and to be able to pass. The ones that I think are the most important, the 3s, really making sure that you're setting a great agreement, making sure number 5 Maintains presence, making sure that you're allowing the client to choose throughout the session so that you're following them and there's really a partnership. And then learning at the, the end of it, like you've evoked awareness in number 7. And then number 8, making sure that people have an opportunity to articulate what it is that they've learned and then how they're going to apply it. Those are just some really high points of being sure that you're hitting those pieces, and that'll put you in, in much better stead when you're submitting your Audio evaluations.
