Testimonials

The one year Erickson learning journey was amazing and helped me to develop the competencies and skills that I wanted to learn. I established a network of awesome people around the world. 2 sessions per week and homework were on one side challenging, on the other side the professional facilitators and the efficient learning platform supported the fast personal growth. The atmosphere in the class was open and positive and the facilitators inspirational and great to learn from. The learning approach was very professional and a good mix of theory, practical demonstration and own experimentation. I highly recommend Erickson!

Katharina Gnirke

It took me almost 6 months to decide which coaching school I would attend. Now that I am a certified coach with the ICF, I can say that Erickson International was the right choice. The quality of teaching coupled with rich content, made it easy in the end.
