RCC FAQ
What is the Registered Corporate Coach Program (RCC)?
The RCC was designed specifically for individuals who seek to
augment their skills in the area of executive and corporate coaching
and who are prepared for a compressed study program.
What does the RCC designation mean?
The RCC designation is awarded by the Worldwide Association of
Business Coaches (WABC) and verifies that you have met professional
standards for coaching within a corporate setting. In an unregulated
field, the RCC sets you apart as meeting standards set by the
leading professional business coaching association.
What is the difference between a “registered” designation and
a “certification”?
A “registered” program is less time consuming than a typical
“certification” program. The RCC offer the benefits of a
professional program based on life experiences.
Who is the WABC?
WABC is the Worldwide Association of Business Coaches, the only
international professional association dedicated exclusively to the
business coaching industry. It's also the only association of its
kind with admission and renewal membership standards. For over six
years, WABC has been representing and serving all external and
internal coaches working with businesses, organizations and
governments. These coaches include business coaches, corporate
coaches, executive coaches, leadership coaches, organizational
development coaches and many other types of coaches.
Who is eligible to take the RCC?
Consultants, human resource professionals, therapists, coaches,
and managers all pursue the RCC. The RCC is appropriate for any
individual who has had significant business or professional
experience. Participants join the WABC as part of the RCC program.
Those who are eligible to join the WABC are eligible to participate
in the RCC. Minimum requirements are:
- Will use coaching skills in a business environment.
- Must have at least seven years of professional or business
experience.
Why the RCC?
The RCC was designed to meet a specific need in the area of
coaching skills training. The RCC is a:
- Compressed Advanced Course - Many coaching certification
programs take up to two years to complete and are too rudimentary
for those who have had significant training and experience.
- Business and Corporate Focused – Many coach training programs
are overly broad or focused exclusively on personal coaching. The
RCC is designed to teach skills that are directly applicable to
the business and corporate environment.
