About Us

Our Vision...

Where we dream of a world where coaching isn’t just a privilege for a select few, but a fundamental right for all. Our vision is simple yet powerful: to make coaching accessible to everyone, empowering them to unleash their full potential and conquer their personal and professional aspirations.

“Coaching is a supportive and empowering process that meets the client where they are, maintains a belief in their inherent wholeness and capability, and helps them reach their personal and professional goals to enable them to be the best they can be”

Inclusivity and Accessibility

We’re tearing down barriers so that coaching reaches everyone, regardless of background, financial situation, or where they call home.

Our focus extends to those who, through adversity, can offer something different in the world and are motivated to become equal members often overlooked, ensuring they receive the support and guidance they deserve.

Our Individual Accreditation Scheme has a one off administration fee, provided you retain your UCA Membership.

Quality and
Standards

We champion excellence, maintaining steadfast professional standards.

Rooted in quality, we prioritise ethics, ongoing education, and advancement. Through rigorous and accessible accreditation, we ensure our members surpass expectations, bolstering the profession’s reputation.

Within our community, members discover growth opportunities and a supportive network. 

Diverse Coaching Approaches

We celebrate the uniqueness of every individual and embrace diverse coaching practices, recognising unique client needs, goals, and learning styles.

Our inclusive approach embraces cognitive-behavioural, psychodynamic, humanistic, solution-focused, and narrative methodologies.

A Message From Jeannette - Founder and CEO of the UCA

Welcome to the forefront of a coaching movement! The Universal Coaching Alliance (UCA) is a beacon of transformation and empowerment in the ever-evolving coaching landscape.

In an industry often characterised by a lack of regulation, we recognise the crucial need for a rigorous approach to coaching. Being in regular contracted and consistent supervision with a suitably qualified/experienced supervisor is vital for all practising Coaches. We work to ensure that supervision is accessible for our members.

Join us in this movement, where becoming an Accredited Coach with the UCA is not merely a certification but a commitment to a shared vision of a world where coaching is a catalyst for positive change. Embrace the opportunity to be part of a movement that envisions coaching as a universally accessible force, empowering individuals to surpass their goals and unlock their true potential.

We forge alliances to support coaches to build their coaching experience whilst under supervision to achieve accreditation more quickly.

At UCA, we are committed to supporting coaches whose economic circumstances might typically preclude them from membership. We believe in providing opportunities for all passionate individuals to contribute to and benefit from our community, regardless of financial constraints.

We look to support those in need by asking them to demonstrate the value they bring to clients and the wider world. If the economic climate impacts you, whether applying for membership or accreditation, contact us to let us know what unique talents and experience you bring to your role as a Coach and tell us why we should invest in your development.

Let’s make coaching accessible to everyone who seeks to make a difference.
