APECS is a not-for-profit organisation
We welcome you to APECS, the Association for Professional Executive Coaching & Supervision
APECS is a small, connected community of business-focused coaching, team coaching and supervision practitioners
APECS welcomes new members into Community Membership (£130).
We also encourage continuing your developmental journey with us, through our dialogic, stretching accreditation process, focused on reflection rather than competencies.
Become a member of our reflective community, then consider further accreditation whenever that feels relevant to you.
Coach Qualities
Our accreditation approach is based on who you are, on your capabilities, exploring your practice and your core capacities, rather than being competency-focused. We have always required supervision to be a cornerstone of your practice as a coach.
Dialogic Process
We invite members to engage in a dialogic journey to accreditation; a journey of integrated learning through reflective practice in dialogue with other members. It is an inquiry-based journey of thinking and presence not a presentation.
Business Focused
Our approach requires coaches to demonstrate a deep understanding of organisations, multiple psychology-based approaches and a practical understanding of how humans work at their best.
