I have enjoyed the program. I have had to take a break but hope to resume Pillar 2 this month. Looking forward to completing my certification!!

I found the Health Coach pillar extremely informative and the guidance through learning the OTR and sessions for health coaching was very detailed. However, the Life Coach pillar I felt was rushed and skimmed over. I don't feel as prepared to coach in any life coach skills due to the lack of detail in each of these areas. I also found that the similarities between each 12 week sessions throughout the life coach pillar were repetitive and redundant. I was really hoping to see more variety or at least options for variety in the event that clients repeat their 12 week sessions. It is nice that these are editable to work best for my coaching style, however, I was hoping to feel a little more prepared to coach on these topics than I do at this point.

It’s good but I feel that there should be a booklet or something tangible to read along with or use as an up and coming Health and Life Coach. Somewhere to go and have a point of reference. Like, Session 1 - And it’s tabbed Then, Digging questions And it’s tabbed. Something. Because now I have to go back and print but the stuff I print also has video info and session info It’s overwhelming and then confusing. I would love booklets, workbooks, or some point of reference as I’d get if I went to a physical training for a position. Love, Cara

The experience was amazing. Eventhough I am already a certified coach, I found the program structure and exercises helpful. Great content! I still need to figure out the marketing piece. Hopefully, one of their suggestions will work for me. Still testing marketing suggestions. Overall, very satisfied.

This was a necessary evil. It wasn’t horrible nor was it great. I expected a challenge something to make this career shift challenge me. I found that most of this course work was mimicking other books I’ve already invested time in. The course work was mostly silly, quip filled, nervous laughter filled, feel good instructional videos.

I had been contemplating the opportunity to become a student of HCI. Twice now, I have spoken with a “clarity coach” to entertain important questions that are raising concerns. With each call, I have asked about the accreditation (or lack of)… and also on the webinar Q/A. The coach never gives a cogent answer as to why there is no U.S. accreditation; yet they like to flaunt their international credentials (that most likely, cannot be investigated). The most recent response is: “HCI is a non traditional school of learning and because we have no grading system, we are not recognized by the Dept. of Education in the U.S.” In my research, I am finding that other training programs carry U.S. institutional accreditations. There are many besides the Dept. of Education. The coach became very defensive in her posture and withdrew her jovial demeanor. I am also finding that HCI’s marketing is their focus… do whatever it takes to rope ‘em in. From the many comments on Trust Pilot, it appears they have achieved their goal. I have experienced this business tactic before and it is obvious they care more about the money. Reading the unfavorable Trust Pilot comments has only confirmed for me, that HCI is running a game that young, gullible coeds will grab hold of, because they just don’t know any better. After attending the webinar, I got the impression the presenters weren’t very polished themselves. You could learn this very basic stuff on your own, that is, if you don’t already know it. So THANKS for confirming my suspicions… I’ll keep looking for a REAL certification program.

The classes are very comprehensive. You learn a lot about every aspect of health and personal wellbeing. The overall atmosphere of HCI is very supportive, encouraging, and empowering. You get a lot of support from your cohort peers. You get a lot of resources to use with clients. They give you scripts if you need them and tell you you don't have to use it if it is not a good fit I will probably not use the 90 day program The only thing is the lifecoaching information was so full of information which was great, but it would've been helpful if we could've spent more time on that material and practicing with it. Overall a great program!

This had been an amazing experience and I am still learning with the bonus section which is super helpful. It is a lot of information and can be overwhelming but I felt like there was a lot of support when needed. The face book page for skills lab was a little much. Too busy and too much going on. Carey and Stacey, AMAZING!! Loved listening to how they started and their stories. I am so glad I decided to take a leap and become a health/life coach
