Who is the membership for?

A community that starts with CCCP graduates and grows with them

The community gives practitioners a way to keep learning, develop their competencies, draw on the professional resources and labs, and build professional relationships with colleagues who share a commitment to the quality of career guidance and coaching.

As the community develops, admission may widen to qualified practitioners from outside the programme, under set acceptance criteria.
