Fine Tune Your ICF Core Competencies on April 17
These facilitated discussions are for chapter members only! Participants will consider the meaning, purpose and application of one competency through the lens of real-life coaching scenarios. We’ll then break into smaller groups to consider how the competencies can apply to their own coaching challenges.

Partnering with AI: Practical Use of AI for Coaching Professionals
This is a dynamic, hands-on session on April 21 is for coaches who want to use AI with confidence—without compromising ethics, presence, or coaching mastery. You’ll learn a simple, coach-friendly framework for what to delegate to AI, what to protect, and what to never outsource, then see real examples you can apply immediately: faster session prep, sharper questions, clearer theme-spotting, stronger between-session practices, and better follow-through that keeps the client in the driver’s seat. Our presenter, Susan Caesar, serves as the Director of Artificial Intelligence for ICF. She will also cover the essentials of responsible use—confidentiality, consent, bias, and data safety.
Don’t miss this timely, valuable session!
