Coaches Conference 2025

Saturday, January 18 - Monday, January 20, 2025
Berkeley Faculty Club

The conference was a well-orchestrated effort that held space for the whirlwind of connections and learning that occurred. I would highly recommend the experience for not only the quality of topics and presentations delivered, but also the care and professionalism the BECI staff practiced in making it an intense but wonderful experience.

Creativity & Community

Our annual Coaches Conference offers a wonderful chance for the ECI Alumni family to reunite and rediscover the essence and purpose that define our coaching practice. Think of the conference as a revitalizing boost, reminiscent of the deep experience of your training, while also providing a platform to forge new collaborations and friendships.

For 2025, we’ll be offering two conference days plus an optional day of service on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Monday, January 20. Complete details and call for proposals will be launched in July 2024.

Participating in my cohort and certification process was a transformational event. I didn’t realize until I came to the Coaches Conference how much I needed the recharge. There is something so powerful about the knowledge an experience of the faculty and participating coaches that helps my own coaching get better. I’m so grateful for the faculty and all of their hard work.

Registration

Coming July 2024

The coaching conference gave me the opportunity to connect with fellow coaches in a supportive environment. No matter your coaching level, everyone was welcome and I felt as a new coach had valuable insights and a voice to share. The sessions left me feeling inspired and renewed to keep moving forward as well as thought provoking insights to share.
