Our aims

We aim to create a supportive, generative and informative forum for dialogue, networking, belonging, growing, learning and the development of coach-specific professional standards for BACP members. Many of our members embraced coaching some time ago, BACP now facilitates it as a practice area more explicitly.

We also aim to provide quality information about coaching to clients and purchasers of coaching and related services, particularly where those services are underpinned or informed by therapeutic principles.
