BACKGROUND

The Malaysian Association of Certified Coaches or MACC, alumnus of Corporate Coach Academy, is an independent and non-profit national coach community of certified and/or trained coaches, and coach-students of the International Coach Federation (ICF) and other coach-learning institutions that are universally renowned for their ability to produce high quality and creditable coaches.

Coaches are powerful catalyst of change and transformation and, as such, they can influence the lives of people.  Because of this,  many people rely on them for guidance and support. Therefore, coaches have to act competently and responsibly at all times to all clients.

A Central Leadership Coaching Body
MACC was formed against the backdrop where Coaching is fast being recognized as the single most powerful way to grow, develop, raise performance and support people reach their goals in the most fulfilling way.

A central coaching body like MACC is needed to play the role in overseeing coaching activities in particular, ensuring that only bona fide coaches of the highest quality  are being engaged to provide the necessary coaching support for clients.  

Our Mission
We want to inspire the continuous growth of a community of like-minded coaches of the highest quality in the Asian region, particularly Malaysia, who are at par with other  highly respected professions.

A National Coaching Association
Set up on in October 2009, MACC is the first and the only legally approved association representing non-sports coaches (and coach-students)  in Malaysia that is recognized by the Malaysian Government. In the same vein,  it is perhaps  among the very few national non-sports associations  that successfully gain national recognition and respect from their national governments.

MACC believes that the good name of ethical, committed and competent Coaches and Coaching can be well safeguarded and respected only when there is a strong and responsible coaching representative body to safeguard their interests, promote them and continually ugrade their coaching skills in alignment with world coaching standards.

MACC also  takes on this leadership role to educate the Malaysian business and non business community on what is REAL Coaching so that they can differentiate between bona fide coaches as against untrained   (or ill-trained), unscrupulous, incompetent and unethical self claimed coaches who are only interested in making fast bucks without the skills and responsibility to support clients in the right way.

ICF as Its Guiding Body
MACC’s reference body is the International Coach Federation (ICF), the leading global body in coaching with over 15,000 members, which is dedicated to advancing the Coaching profession of the highest world standards. 

In this regard, its plans and activities for its members will always be guided by ICF's precepts, philosophy and professional standards and ethics as well as coaching competencies. Click here to read the ICF Code of Ethics from the ICF website or download a copy by clicking here.
