The refined ABCCCP Competencies
At a meeting on the 28th of June 2019, the ABCCCP discussed the competencies that had been adopted by the institution when it was formed. This was in answer of the question: What’s so African about the ABCCCP competencies.
This is what we came up with early this year as a board after discussions. We are very excited about this new set and how they can contribute to evolving coaching practice, in a way that is aligned to the indigenous practices on the continent while underpinned by modern research.
The competencies remain the same across different designations, with varying knowledge and experience elements per designation.

Consulting is a process of engaging with a client by an expert with competencies related to a client challenge, with an intention to co-create a bespoke solution thereto.
