Coaches Coffees 

Great things happen when minds meet and conversation is kindled by a cuppa – and the ICF Metro DC Chapter’s Coaches Coffees provide a way for that to happen.

Coaches Coffees gather local groups of coaching professionals for regular meetings over coffee or a morning beverage of your choice. These monthly or quarterly meetings, led by facilitators, are designed to provide opportunities for colleagues to explore topics of interest together.

Traditionally these meetings occur at a coffee shop in your neighborhood, but currently we are adapting to the current conditions by using virtual meetings.

Meet and Mug Up

Not only are Coaches Coffees a good way to share ideas and keep on top of trends, but they’re also a good way to connect with other professionals and resources in your community.

Typical topics include:

● Business development
● Current trends
● Professional development

Earn CCEUs for Attending a Coffee

Through an arrangement with ICF Global attendees can earn one Resource CCEU, issued by the Coaches Coffees Group Host/Leader or an administrator. 

FIND THE GROUP FOR YOUR AREA

Coaches Coffees bring together coaches in the same geographical area for discussion. Usually these meetings happen in a local coffee shop or café. However, due to the impact of Covid-19, the meetings are in a virtual format until further notice.
