FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

​What is required to become a Certified Professional Coach?

The most important attribute to becoming a life coach is not a college degree, it’s not years of experience in a helping profession; the most important attribute is a genuine desire to help others. If you have that desire, Fowler Academy's accredited life coaching classes will teach you to deliver excellent, results-driven coaching to every client you’ll serve.

If you are like most of our students, you are the “go-to” person for your friends, colleagues, and associates. You are well-liked and trusted, and you find people are drawn to you for help with their challenges and opportunities. If this is true, you are already coaching - you’re just not getting paid. All you need to make the leap to become a paid professional is a proven life coach training system, effective professional tools, and confidence in your ability to truly help your clients achieve their goals.

Why will I need a practice client?

The number one reason our home study course is so effective in preparing you to be a great life coach is you will be doing a lot of coaching throughout the course. As you learn the different tools and techniques that make up our proven system, you will put them right into practice by coaching your practice client. By the time you graduate, you will have successfully coached your practice client through every aspect of our coaching system.
 

​​What is a practice client and how do I find one?
A practice client is someone you will need to recruit to act as your life coaching client. Your practice client may be a friend, colleague or even a family member. Your practice client does not need to live in your local area because you can complete your practice coaching sessions over the telephone or internet. 

Your practice client will need to be available to you on several conveniently scheduled occasions for a total of about four hours. We have created a short video for practice clients, which explains their responsibilities and how they can help you in earning your coaching certificate. It also explains some of the benefits of being a practice client.
