Wondering if SCM is the right coaching school for you? Well, we're a bit of a maverick in the coaching industry, so don’t expect us to make all the usual claims, like…

WE’RE THE WORLD’S BIGGEST COACHING SHOOL  
No, and we never intend to be.

WE’RE THE OLDEST COACHING SCHOOL  
Actually, we’re probably the newest.

WE’RE THE MOST PUBLICIZED COACHING SCHOOL  
No, we rely primarily on colleague referrals to attract our students.

WE HAVE A WORLD-FAMOUS FOUNDER  
Not really. But she’s highly respected by many of top coaches, worldwide.

WITH THE MOST CELEBRATED FACULTY IN COACHING  
Only one so far, but we do have more fantastic folks ready to step in, as we grow.

WE’LL HOLD YOUR HAND EVERY INCH OF THE WAY  
Well, you WILL get lots of attention in our small classes, but we expect a high level of personal responsibility from you.

WE’RE THE CHEAPEST COACHING SCHOOL  
Unfortunately, small classes and great teachers tend to cost more, but our introductory fees are VERY attractive.

YOU’RE GUARANTEED TO GET RICH IF YOU SIGN WITH US  
Anyone who guarantees that is lying. Don’t sign up unless you LOVE coaching!

WE’RE ICF ACCREDITED  
Nope. We’re the first and only school that prepares for [IAC Certification](http://www.certifiedcoach.org/certify/certification.html) from the ground up.

BASED ON THE COACHING COMPETENCIES  
No. We’re based on the [IAC Coaching Masteries.](http://www.certifiedcoach.org/learningguide/masteries.htm) Why not use the best?

BASED ON THE COACHING PROFICIENCIES  
See above.

WE TEACH EVERYTHING YOU'LL EVER WANT TO KNOW  
We just teach what's most effective.

YOU CAN LEARN BY JUST LISTENING TO OUR CLASSES  
Passive learning doesn't lead to mastery. Every one of our eclasses includes practice and feedback on your coaching.

WE SPONSOR INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCES  
Ha! But we do have a few small seminars every year.

THE OWNER IS MAKING MILLIONS  
NOT!

WE USE ALL THE LATEST WEB TECHNOLOGY  
We use up-to-date technology that facilitates fast learning. Anything more just adds a learning curve that gets in the way.

WE USE THE LATEST COACHING TECHNOLOGY  
That’s actually true.

OUR MATERIAL IS THE EASIEST  
Hardly, but it is very simple.

WE HAVE THE HIGHEST STANDARDS  
Possibly. We ARE doing great work.

WE’RE THE RIGHT SCHOOL FOR EVERYBODY  
We do our best work with students who are talented, committed, fast-learners.

CAN A SCHOOL THIS AUDACIOUS BE RIGHT FOR YOU?
