    Hi!

    The main reasons a coach need training is

    A) To learn the skills necessary to aid in understanding the human mind and how successful life change occurs and to learn to tap into the motivation of your clients
    B) Because your clients want to know you are certified and trained.

    The easiest and most effective way to become a coach is through online training. You can even work with a class if you choose (which is great because you get witness and partake in actual coaching sessions) which is held by conference call (known as tele-classing).

    The link below is for an academy that has a 100% money back guarantee and allows you to design your own payment plan, which makes studying possible for every income level.

    There is also several free resources at the link I provided and a free "How to Become a Coach" guide.

    PS- the starting rate for coaches is $100.00 an hour and according to the lastest International Coach Federation survey over 90% of full time coaches earn over $80,000 annually (I know income may not be an issue but as a coach myself I found this quite interesting).
