  • The training is set up in such a way that you first work through the WCFM for Students program, as this is the more comprehensive version of the two: If you choose to expand your accreditation to include the Professional version (at no additional cost to you), this training will go much faster, as you’ve already covered all the basic theory and only need to focus on particular aspects of coaching working professionals through the program. You are free to conclude your training after completing the WCFM for Students training program, however, this limits you to using the Student program only (designed for students and first-time job seekers).

  • Upon accreditation, you will have an active account to pre-purchase as many WCFM program credits as you need (even single unit purchases are fine). Student and Professional credits are interchangeable and priced the same.

  • The Career Thinking with WCFM Accreditation training is registered with the HPCSA for 6 CPD points.

  • The 2024 price of the Accreditation Training is R3800 (excluding VAT). This includes accreditation in both the WCFM Student and Professional versions (2 training programs for the price of 1). This package also includes up to 2 free credits (1x Student + 1x Professional, to the value of R1200), allowing you to coach pilot clients through the program and gain hands-on experience in making the WCFM a part of your practice. 

  • Being mostly self-paced, it really depends on you. Theoretically you can work through all of the content in a day, yet to ensure that you really absorb everything, we recommend putting aside at least a week, covering a bit of the content every day and allowing enough time to use your free credit(s). To conclude your accreditation training you are required to attend one live online engagement. These online sessions are scheduled to take place regularly (once a month) and the upcoming dates are posted on the Career Thinking Community Events page. We recommend that you plan your schedule so you are able to work through the content (and ideally use your credit to gain practical exposure) before attending the concluding live session.
