CCAN Global is the only Accreditation Body that holds Coachers to a reflexive rather than reflective standard, recognises Epistemological Plurality in what counts as Professional Development, and Independently Awards CPD Credit to the People being coached, not just the Coachers delivering it.
Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is the systematic and continuous framework through which Coaching Practitioners commit to maintaining, deepening, and elevating their Professional Competencies and their engagement with their Professional Capabilities in Coaching and Coaching Research.
Standardized metric measuring time in educational activity.
Proprietary metric used by specific bodies for strict credential compliance.
Mandatory metric required for license renewal in highly regulated professions.
No matter the term being used, hours, points, credits, or units, across the CPD ecosystem (CEUs, CCEs, and CEs) are all measuring the exact same thing: time spent in structured, professional learning.
CCAN Global uses "CPD credits", where 1 CCAN CPD credit = 1 hour of accredited coaching.
