Academy
Accredited by the International Coaching Federation
Fully accredited
New professional avenues
Human Partnering is one of the most essential skill sets for the future. In a time when AI takes over many tasks, what remains uniquely human—and crucial for every profession—is the ability to listen deeply, ask meaningful questions, and connect with empathy and presence. In our programs, you learn to coach others effectively, bringing out their best; you learn to do your own work differently, with more awareness and impact in any human interaction; and you develop yourself—gaining deeper insight into your own patterns, emotions, and presence. Bossert Academy is accredited at Levels 1, 2, and ACTC by the International Coaching Federation (ICF), the global gold standard in coach education.
Educate leaders
What makes our Academy special?
You will learn coaching in our distinctive Human Partnering style—focusing on what truly matters: the person in front of you. You’ll gain the mindset, methods, and foundations to engage with others at depth and impact.
You’ll learn and practice with your future target group—a carefully selected community of senior leaders, founders, and professionals from diverse fields who will continue to inspire and support you long after the program ends.
We invest substantial time in practice and guided self-discovery, using modern online platforms for all learning that can happen between in-person sessions. This allows us to focus our time together entirely on reflection, dialogue, and real human connection.
good Reasons
Why Bossert Academy?
High level ICF accreditation
Bossert Academy is accredited by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) at Level 1, Level 2, and Advanced Accreditation in Team Coaching (AATC) — the gold standard for professional coach education. Depending on the course, you will receive an ICF Level 1, Level 2, or AATC diploma. All are internationally recognized and provide streamlined access to ICF credentialing.
With a Level 1 diploma, you can apply for the Associate Certified Coach (ACC) credential once you have completed 100 coaching hours and passed the ICF exam through a straightforward online process.
With a Level 2 diploma, you can either apply for ACC under the same conditions or, after accumulating 500 hours of coaching experience, apply for the Professional Certified Coach (PCC) credential. The Level 2 diploma can be used twice, first for ACC and later for PCC.
The AATC diploma qualifies you for the ICF Advanced Certification in Team Coaching (ACTC), the highest international recognition for professional team coaches.
All three routes provide a more structured and secure path to ICF certification than the more complex and less certain portfolio application.
An iconic coaching style
There certainly is a craft of coaching. Every serious coaching school will teach you a canon of techniques. Yet Bossert Academy will introduce you also to its iconic coaching style, Human Partnering, that touches deeper human levels. It is like getting an idea of the techniques of world-class chefs right when you start to learn the basics of cooking. From there you can develop your own style of coaching with true impact.
Learn in an inspiring group
It is inspiring to learn coaching alongside ambitious, professional learners who bring diverse experiences from corporate environments, start-ups, private equity, academia, and the arts. Our participants include experienced managers, researchers, founders, consultants, and senior leaders from international firms and institutions. This mix of perspectives creates a stimulating learning environment and elevates the quality of dialogue in workshops and peer groups. Bossert Academy courses are admission-based to ensure a strong fit and a balanced, engaging cohort experience.
Discover yourself
Our coaching education is also a journey of self-discovery. The many interactions between faculty and participants, as well as peer-to-peer coaching sessions, offer countless moments of insight, reflection, and personal growth. You will be part of an inspiring community of co-learners and have continuous access to senior faculty coaches throughout the course.
The structure of the training invites deep personal reflection and helps you become aware of your own inner patterns and perspectives. This self-awareness is essential for every coach to avoid unconscious bias and be truly present with others. Even those who tend to avoid inner work often find themselves naturally engaging in the process. Many describe the journey as eye-opening and profoundly transformative.
Wider perspective
Our course entails topics that go beyond the standard contents of coaching courses. To expand your view of coaching, we have added sections on neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and the philosophy of coaching.
Experienced Coaches
At Bossert Academy, you will not be limited to learning from a single master coach. Many coach trainings follow one strict method, which can leave participants feeling constrained or unsure of their own instincts. In contrast, our faculty includes several senior coaches at MCC and PCC level, each with their own unique coaching approach and impressive professional profile.
This broad exposure allows you to experience a range of coaching styles and perspectives. It opens the space to explore what truly resonates with you, helping you develop your own distinct voice and presence as a coach.
In a dedicated workshop, we guide you to define your Unique Selling Proposition (USP), resulting in a coaching identity that feels authentic and is easy to communicate in the market. You will leave the program not only with professional competence but with a coaching style that is genuinely your own.
