Virginia Kellogg is a successful and accomplished coach, who trains coaches all over the world. 

Virginia is co-chairing, along with Hide Enomoto, a track at the 2008, ICF conference called, ‘Impact on the World’, and is looking for fellow coaches to join a committee.  This track will both train coaches to have broader impact in the world (cultural competency issues, etc) and showcase some of the global projects that take coaching to not-usually-served populations.

Virginia envisages a diverse committee, made up from coaches in countries other that USA, and trained from coaching schools other that CTI (where Virginia trained).

If you feel that you might fit these criteria and would like to be a part of this diverse committee, please contact Virginia directly. Her details and contact information can be found below.

Throughout 2008, ICA will be holding a series of teleconferences designed to spread the word about coaching as a career and, in particular, coach training with ICA.  These calls will be held monthly and will be open to anyone, from anywhere in the world.

As a student of ICA, it is important to us that you have access to this information and these calls so we will email you prior to each event.  Although much of the the content of the calls will often be specific to the coach training research, you are always most welcome to attend or contribute.  Plus, we would love you to pass the information on to your lists, family, friends, and colleagues - bascially, anyone basically anyone you feel would be interested in discovering more about coach
training.

The theme for this months call will be ‘Become a Qualified Coach’, and it will be focused on those who have not yet pursued coach training.  The call will be hosted by Robyn Logan (Strategy Director) and Dennis Griffin (Business Manager).

DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME BEGINS IN MARCH 2008

Daylight Saving Time will begin in the US, on March 9th, and because the ICA Academic Calendar is based on NY EST, this change will affect the time students from many regions around the world attend classes.

** If you live in the US**

The times you attend teleclasses will not change.  But, make sure you turn your clock forward an hour on the 9th of March for the start of day light saving.

** If you live outside the US **

The times you attend teleclasses will change.  You will need to update your teleclass conversions as follows: 

All Students: Reconvert the time of your classes as of the 9th March ( until the 2nd of November when Daylight Saving finishes in the US).

Some Students: Recovert the time of your classes again if your country starts or finishes Daylight Saving on a date other than the 9th March. 

For a list of when countries start/finish day light saving click here

To reconvert times, click here

If you have any queries, please email support@icoachacademy.com

And of course, don’t forget:

• If you are starting day light saving you need to turn your clock forward and hour.
• If you are finishing day light saving you need to turn your clock back and hour.
