CPC as a National organization recognizes the need for trained and passionate leaders that are committed to the call to be missional and multiplicative. One of the key components to this is having coaches that can walk with individual leaders as they seek to live this out.
Coaching is a collaborative process that supports, focuses and challenges individuals to reach their God given potential in a sustainable way.
Ecclesiastes states that" Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, for he does not have another to help him. (4:8,9)
International Coach Federation defines it this way "Coaching is partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential."

As with every relationship the chemistry between the coach and coachee is very important. Thus, certification does not mean that chemistry exists. Each Coachee needs to seek out a coach that will fit with them. Feel free to interview and check out certified coaches for the best match. Coaches will not be offended by this but expect it.
It is our recommendation that an initial coaching relationship be established for a 3 month time block. We have found it takes several times for coach and coachee to come to "alignment" on what coaching is and who is responsible for what.
Please anticipate this expectation when you engage a coach.

CPC Coach Certification was created out of a desire to see coaches developed and verified with the aim of supporting and helping Canadian Church leaders in their pursuit of excellence. As an organization we are committed to developing missional churches and leaders all across Canada. In keeping with the spirit of CPC this Certification process is simply a way to establish quality and facilitate excellence amongst the CPC partners. When a coach is certified it means they have:
- agreed to our ethical standards,
- received verified training,
- had their coaching evaluated and
- have coached for a certain number of hours and
- been personally coached.
All of this is a servant of a larger goal which is to be a catalyst for the Canadian Church and its leadership towards being multiplicative and missional as well as sustainable and supported in their ministry.
