Members
of the PCA experience a variety of benefits, including:
Monthly Meetings
PCA meetings are held monthly from September through June. As a member,
you will receive a discount on the meeting fee. Meetings feature engaging
guest speakers who address a wide range of topics pertinent to the coaching
profession, as well as lunch and networking opportunities.
Professional Credibility and Public Awareness
Affiliation with PCA establishes your credibility as a professional
coach committed to the highest ethical standards and business practices. PCA
also promotes awareness of the coaching profession, both to the general
public and through collaboration with other professional organizations.
Every member of PCA benefits when the public has a greater understanding and
appreciation of the coaching profession.
Networking
One of the greatest benefits of membership is the opportunity to network
with other professional coaches who share a common mission. Through
attendance at meetings and participation on monthly networking calls,
members can learn about current trends in the field of coaching, enlist help
with projects or collaborate with others, and share ideas and inspiration
with supportive colleagues.

PCA website, which includes your photo and a detailed description of your
specialty areas and capabilities. Many members receive clients through their
PCA profile.

coaching-related topics, which are publicized on PCA's website. Membership
in PCA will also give members the opportunity to participate in
group-sponsored events designed to promote the field of coaching and raise
the profiles of member coaches. Past events have included our successful
Coaching Works event and the TeleSummit.
