How It Works

Three steps from zero to exam-ready.

1

Take the Diagnostic

20 questions across all ICF competencies. Identifies your weakest ICF competency areas in under 15 minutes. Free — no account required.

2

Study with Adaptive Questions

Difficulty scales with your progress. Get 3 right in a row → harder questions. Struggle in an area → easier questions rebuild your foundation. Spaced repetition keeps gaps from reopening.

3

Take a Full Practice Exam

Timed, full-length mock exam. Score report with competency breakdown and benchmark comparison tells you exactly whether you're ready to sit the real exam.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this official ICF content?

No. This is a third-party study tool aligned with the ICF Core Competency Framework. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or certified by the International Coaching Federation. All questions are original and created for educational purposes.

What certification levels are covered?

ICF ACC, PCC, and MCC. EMCC EIA Practitioner, EMCC EIA Senior Practitioner, and AC levels are in development. The free diagnostic covers all ICF credentials.

How is this different from just reading the ICF handbook?

Practice questions + adaptive difficulty + a readiness score. Reading the handbook tells you what to know. This prep engine tests whether you actually know it under exam-style conditions — and surfaces your weak competency areas before exam day. Reading is not the same as passing.

Do I need to create an account?

No. The free diagnostic requires no account — your progress is saved to your browser. Premium access requires email signup so your progress persists across devices and sessions.
