More About TPC Level 2 Bridging
For coaches who have completed ICF Level 1 training or hold an ACC credential and are seeking to upgrade their training and progress toward the PCC credential through an ICF Level 2 pathway.
The Bridging pathway is designed for coaches who already have foundational coaching training. It focuses on advancing PCC-level competencies without repeating Level 1 content, allowing you to complete your Level 2 requirements in a shorter, more focused format.
Yes. The TPC Level 2 Bridging program is part of our ICF-accredited Level 2 pathway and meets the ICF requirements for coaches progressing toward the PCC credential.

The Bridging pathway includes 10+ hours of mentor coaching, delivered through a combination of group and individual sessions, aligned with ICF Level 2 requirements.
