TRE™ Training with ICF CCEs

Coaching asks clients to think clearly, notice patterns and choose new actions. That is hard to do when the nervous system is stuck in stress. More and more coaches are adding body-based practices so that clients — and the coach — can settle before they think.

TRE™ is one of the simplest of these practices. It needs no equipment and no talking about the past, and once learned it becomes a self-care practice you can use for the rest of your life. Module 1 starts with you: your own regulation, your own presence in the room.

What you take away

• A reliable way to come back to calm between demanding sessions.
• Greater presence and steadier attention with clients.
• First-hand understanding of how stress lives in the body.
• A clear path to offering TRE™ to clients later, through Modules 2 and 3.

ICF credentials (ACC, PCC and MCC) are renewed every three years with continuing coach education. CCEs are split into Core Competencies (directly about coaching skills) and Resource Development (knowledge and tools that support your coaching).

Every three years you need 40 CCEs: at least 24 in Core Competencies (including 3 in Coaching Ethics), and up to 16 in Resource Development.

TRE™ Module 1 gives you 16 Resource Development CCEs — your full Resource Development allowance for a cycle — plus 5 Core Competency CCEs. That is more than half of a renewal from a single course. Keep your certificate of completion: you will need it when you log your hours with ICF.

Renewal rules are set by ICF and can change. Check the current requirements on ICF’s renewal page.
