Certified Life Coach FAQs
What are the requirements to become a life coach?
The field of life coaching is growing quickly. Still, it is not currently regulated by any state or federal organization—meaning there are not currently any licensing requirements to enter the field. Anyone who wants to be a life coach can pursue the profession, but pursuing life coach training, especially one that prepares for a life coach certification, will demonstrate to others that you have received specific professional training and are serious about your career and coaching abilities.
