Here are some frequently asked questions about our initiative.
Oui — et c’est précisément pour cela qu’il a été conçu.
La majorité de nos participants sont des managers, RH ou dirigeants avec des responsabilités importantes. Le programme demande en moyenne 2 à 3 heures par semaine, dont 1 heure de session en ligne à horaire fixe. Le reste du travail est flexible et s’adapte à votre organisation.
Nos certifiés nous disent qu’ils ont pu suivre la formation sans ralentir leur activité professionnelle.
→ Si votre agenda est dense mais que vous êtes prêt(e) à vous engager quelques heures par semaine sur votre développement, la CCP est parfaitement compatible avec votre réalité.
Fatou Jupiter Touré, certifiée en 2024, témoigne :
“Since I have a schedule I often can’t control, the program wasn’t demanding in terms of logistics. It gives us the freedom to manage our own time.”
The value for money of our program is unmatched in the market. Other programs are at least two to three times more expensive and do not have international accreditation. Unlike many other programs, the CCP is not just an introduction to coaching tools, but a true professional certification.
We have chosen to keep the price affordable because we firmly believe that coaching is a key driver of individual and collective transformation. The more coaches there are in Africa, the greater our impact will be.
→ We understand that this is an investment—a bold investment in YOURSELF. That’s why we offer the option to pay in installments.
The certification program lasts 8 months and requires 2 to 3 hours of independent study per week, including 1 hour of online sessions at a set time. This time allows for a genuine mastery of the skills and a gradual transformation of your approach.
The program combines:
online group sessions
supervised practice
structured independent study
supervision
→ In 8 months, you won’t just walk away with a few extra tools—you’ll walk away with a certified professional certification.
Once you’re certified, you’ll join an active network of over 250 coaches trained by Beautiful Soul.
This network allows you to:
to share feedback
to seek advice on specific situations
to attend meetings and events to expand your network
to have access to peer review and supervision opportunities.
Beautiful Soul can also help identify opportunities or assist you in structuring your business if you choose to work as a coach.
→ Certification marks the end of a program and the beginning of a professional journey.
This is a question many applicants ask themselves.
Legitimacy does not come solely from one’s past experience, but from the ability to undergo rigorous training and adopt a professional attitude.
The CCP provides you with a framework, a methodology, and recognition that underpin this legitimacy.
→ If you have solid professional experience and a genuine desire to support others, you already have a strong foundation.
Yes—even if you don't become a full-time coach.
Certified managers and HR professionals apply coaching skills in their interviews, feedback sessions, meetings, and decision-making.
Our certified individuals also share how certification has impacted them, their families, and their relationships. Adama, who was certified in 2025, shares:
“The CCP was so much more than just a training program for me. It helped me understand myself better, improve my relationships, and adopt a more balanced approach in both my personal and professional life. Today, I listen more, take a step back, and support others with greater depth. It’s been a real transformation.”
A coaching mindset is becoming a key differentiator in all professional settings.
The admission process includes a one-on-one interview.
This interview will allow us to assess your project, your level of commitment, and your suitability for the program’s requirements.
→ This also gives you the chance to ask any questions you may have before making your decision.
It’s normal to hesitate when faced with an investment of time and energy.
If you feel that coaching is a natural next step for you, it’s worth exploring.
Talking with our team can help you make a decision—with no obligation.
