Allenbaugh Performance Coaching System
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my certification in the Allenbaugh Coaching System limited to my current organization?
The certification follows you as a professional trainer. Once you have been certified, you may utilize the coaching and INTERACT materials and tools with any client within or outside of your current organization. Additionally, the certification is not limited to any geographical area.
For how long does one remain certified in the Allenbaugh Coaching System?
To assure a standard of quality in the application of the Allenbaugh Coaching System, certified trainers must upgrade and refine their skills through recertification every three years. New coaching and INTERACT materials are also periodically introduced into the Allenbaugh Coaching System. To facilitate the recertification process, trainers may select one of the three options by participating in:
- The 4-day Allenbaugh Coaching System certification workshop,
- A one-day workshop with at least five other trainers seeking recertification, or
- A one-half day 1:1 coaching workshop with Dr. Allenbaugh. This option may also be conducted through telephone conferences.
Is it necessary to purchase the "Performance Coaching PowerPoint Program?"
As an option, the "Performance Coaching PowerPoint Program" may be purchased from Allenbaugh Associates for a three-year licensure period. While not required for certification, this intellectual property provides a professional touch to your training efforts and greatly facilitates the learning process. Not only do the PowerPoint slides add to your professional credibility, but they can save an enormous amount of preparation time by using the slides.
Do I need other coaching materials in addition to those available through the Allenbaugh Coaching System?
The Allenbaugh Coaching System provides a broad range of coaching materials, principles, and tools for your clients that address a wide range of coaching needs and interests. While it is unlikely that you will need to seek additional resources, you are not restricted from doing so by your certification. Those certified in the Allenbaugh Coaching System are qualified to purchase the INTERACT Personal Strengths Profile at a wholesale price. Additionally, the Performance Coaching workbook may also be purchased as a companion document to reinforce the learning principles. Together, both documents position your clients for successful and effective application of the coaching tools.
Can other people who work for me conduct coaching workshops using the Allenbaugh Coaching System and materials?
Use of the Allenbaugh Coaching System is limited to only those who have been certified by Dr. Eric Allenbaugh. For quality purposes, individuals seeking to use the Allenbaugh Coaching System materials must first be certified.
Once I become certified in the Allenbaugh Coaching System, what is my status regarding Allenbaugh Associates, Inc.?
While certification provides the right to use the Allenbaugh Coaching System intellectual property, each person certified in the Allenbaugh Coaching System remains as an independent contractor and is neither an employee nor an affiliate of Allenbaugh Associates, Inc. As an independent contractor, each person has the responsibility to acquire their own professional liability and other appropriates insurances.
