The previous version of the ICF Vancouver Chapter Annual Report inadvertently omitted the income statement and balance sheet. A corrected version of the annual report can be found here.

Please note that being an online member of the Vancouver Chapter website does not mean you are an ICF Member. Our groupsite is open to the public and online members of our website are not necessarily members of ICF.

We encourage all Vancouver Chapter groupsite members to become ICF Members (dues are ~$195usd/year). The International Coaching Federation (ICF) is the largest non-profit professional association worldwide of personal and business coaches. Currently there are over 15,000 members! You can become an ICF Member by registering online.

As an ICF Member you can become accredited as an ICF Coach, which is a globally recognized designation.

Once you pay your membership fee to ICF International, the ‘face' of your ICF membership is through your local chapter. The Vancouver Chapter has our own website (this site) with a focus on activities specific to our geography and members. Local chapters hold monthly chapter meetings where members (non-members are also welcome) come together for networking and educational opportunities.

The larger international (parent) organization provides a wealth of benefits and resources that are designed to support you as a professional coach.
