Advanced Executive Coaching Institute

Wednesday, January 14 - Friday, January 16, 2026
Berkeley Faculty Club

Deepen your mastery of executive coaching in our lab-style Advanced Executive Coaching Institute. Designed for certified ECI grads with either existing executive coaching practices or senior leadership roles, we’ll dive deep into intensive skill-building sessions and explore cutting-edge coaching practices. Our program is designed to not only enhance your existing capabilities but also introduce you to new modalities in the field.

This program will provide 20 hours of continuing education that you can apply toward ICF certification or ICF credential renewal. Participants will receive a certificate of completion from Berkeley Executive Coaching Institute.

One of the most beneficial things from BECI was the high level of coaching, mentorship, and feedback from faculty coupled with hands on practice, that level of reflection was a unique experience.
