“I just passed my ACC Exam and want to thank Danny for creating such an incredibly helpful resource in Credential Prep.”
“I found the ACC level report to be enlightening and immediately useful. The report is also helping me to rehearse the language needed around the exam and ICF standards. I already told a fellow credential student about it.”
“The Credential Prep experience gave me not only practical support, but also the confidence and mindset shift I needed on my journey.”
“I’m doing the PCC practice exam right now and, oof, it’s both humbling and helpful. It’s showing me all the places that I’m getting it right and why, and where I need more practice.”
“Even though I already meet all of the PCC criteria, I'm quite stressed about the exam that's still ahead of me. CredentialPrep helped me A LOT with gaining clarity on what the exam looks like and get confidence in my ability. The mock questions were really nuanced and I really appreciated the explanations why a certain answer is good or not. I also like the fact that it ranks answers from best to worst. Thank you so much!”
“The Practice Mode and the Blog information have both been super helpful.”
“Having recently passed my ICF credentialing exam for the MCC, I can confidently say this platform played an important role in my success.”
“The FOCAL/HINGE Framework is one of the best exam-preparation frameworks I have seen so far. It provides a practical way to think through ICF exam scenarios, especially when identifying the best and worst responses.”
“I have found CredentialPrep to be a great resource in preparation for my ACC exam, which I hope to write soon. Any questions or concerns have been answered quickly by the team. I would highly recommend CredentialPrep.”
“Highly recommend. CredentialPrep provides multiple ways to practice and integrate learning. In addition to a variety of testing scenarios, you'll find strategies, tips, and tools to support success in the exam and to support us to be better coaches anytime.”
“There is nothing like this anywhere and it is much needed! I like the way you have broken down each competency and then talked about how to tackle the questions that come up for each of these.”
“I genuinely LOVE what you have built with this platform. It’s so intuitive, and there’s so much depth, and ways to not only practice but sharpen your skills both in the role-play drills.”
“I passed the exam last week! Your practice tests and explanations were extremely helpful!”
“I've found the material absolutely incredible—very comprehensive, clear, and, most importantly, it really helps explain the meaning and application behind each competency. It's much more than simply preparing for an exam; it truly helps deepen the understanding of the competencies.”
“Credential Prep played a key role in helping me pass my PCC exam on the first attempt. I explored several free and paid preparation resources, but Credential Prep stood out clearly. I purchased it primarily for the practice tests, and those alone were worth the investment.”
I have my ICF PCC, and I built the practice I wished I could buy.
When I started studying for my MCC, I wanted to practice the exam and get real feedback on my sessions. The options were $400 courses built on static PDFs. That didn't exist, so I built it myself. I have the same stake in this working as you do.
Every question and evaluation is built from what the exam and credential process test, not from what sounds right.
I'm also in an MCS program, becoming a mentor coach myself, which is why Mentor Coach exists.

The full comparison.
Simplify your mentorship.
Built for mentor coaches evaluating ICF candidates, not a general annotation tool.
What coaches ask.
Is this ICF-approved?
Only our Competency Course. ICF approved it as a Continuing Coach Education program on September 25, 2026: 10 CCE hours, all in the Core Competency category, included with the Complete Plan. Finish the course in the CCE version to earn them.
How is this different from just using generic AI?
Generic AI doesn't know the ICF exam format or the ICF markers at each level. Our questions are calibrated to the ICF exam itself, and our evaluations are graded against ICF marker rubrics, not generic feedback.
Will this help me pass?
The Exam Prep plan comes with a pass guarantee: finish the course, answer at least 75% of the practice questions for your credential level, fail the ICF exam, and we refund you.
I'm already an experienced coach. Is this too basic?
No. This is built for experienced coaches. The exam tests whether you can identify behavior that aligns with the ICF framework, which is a different question from whether you're an effective coach. This app closes that specific gap.
