The Agile Coaching Certification (ICP-ACC) is one of two knowledge-based certifications on the Agile Coaching track from ICAgile. It focuses primarily on the mindset, roles, and responsibilities of an Agile Coach.

After completing the certification, the participants will be able to differentiate between mentoring, facilitating, professional coaching, and teaching, and will also gain the skills needed to create a safe environment for meaningful collaboration and healthy conflict resolution within an agile team.

The first part of this training focuses on developing an understanding of the professional coaching skillset and the value of mastering these skills to serve individuals on an agile team. The second part introduces participants to foundational team coaching skills and team development concepts for starting and growing teams while focusing on teams and organizations as complex human systems.
