Join Us To Give the Gift of Coaching - Last call
Register TODAY! | We've extended the deadline until end of day today, November 7th.
The holidays can be emotionally charged for so many. As ICF-CT coaches, this season is an opportunity to offer pro-bono coaching support to the community and your fellow coaches. ICF-CT is encouraging all chapter members to participate in “The Gift of Coaching,” by offering one or more individual pro-bono sessions to the community between November 15 and December 31. How many sessions you offer and the specific dates are up to you, we only ask that each client receive a full session (45-60 minutes).
To register for “The Gift of Coaching” complete the form below.

| Calling All “Wannabe Techies” | Are you looking to get more involved in our chapter? Want to give back, learn and have fun? Ready to zoom into action as a volunteer? We've got just the ticket!
Join the ICT-CT virtual meeting management committee! As a volunteer member of this committee, you will collaborate with the Programs and Technology Committees, serve as the bridge between presenters and speakers, and use Zoom and other online facilitation tools to make sure our online educational programs run smoothly.
You'll work alongside the Virtual Meeting Management Chair to manage live Zoom meetings, run polls, manage breakout rooms, and more. The time commitment is around 3 hours a month (6 months of the year) and is a great opportunity to keep up-to-date on innovations in online facilitation.
Contact Justine Ickes to find out how you can make a difference and support your fellow coaches as a member of the Virtual Meeting Management committee.
