About ICF ACC

The ICF ACC Exam is the multiple-choice testable component for the Associate Certified Coach (ACC) credential. It has 60 knowledge-based questions with four options and one correct answer each, delivered in two sections of 30 over 90 minutes. It is built on the eight ICF Core Competencies (2019 update) and the ICF Code of Ethics (2020). The other ACC requirements (60 hours of coaching education, 100 hours of coaching experience, 10 hours of mentor coaching and a performance evaluation) are checked in the credential application, not on the exam.

ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC) radio FAQ

Is ICF ACC Radio free?

Yes. ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC) Exam Prep Radio is free to listen to, with no sign-up. Press the power button and you join the broadcast straight away.

How does ICF ACC Radio work?

It is a 56-minute recorded study show that broadcasts continuously. Everyone tuned in hears the same moment, like real radio. Turn it off whenever you like; turning it back on joins the current broadcast.

How is this different from a study podcast?

It works like a study podcast that is always on. Instead of choosing an episode, you join the show in progress, and everyone on a station hears the same moment. There is no seek bar, speed control or download.

Who are the hosts?

Maya & Ben are AI-generated hosts. The show is independent study material from OpenExamPrep; check exam rules with the official exam sponsor and practice with our free questions.

Can I keep listening while I practice?

Yes. Open practice questions, study guides or flashcards on any page. The radio keeps playing, and the header has a power button to turn it off or back on.

What is the ICF ACC Exam?

It is a 60-question, 90-minute multiple-choice exam with four options and one correct answer per item, delivered in two sections of 30 with an optional 10-minute break. It tests applied knowledge of the eight ICF Core Competencies and the ICF Code of Ethics and is the testable MCQ component of the ACC credential. It launched in November 2024 as a separate exam from the PCC/MCC exams: the situational-judgment ICF Credentialing Exam (last sitting date March 31, 2027) and the PCC-MCC Exam available from November 10, 2026.

What are the other ACC requirements besides the exam?

ACC also requires 60+ hours of coach-specific education (ICF-accredited or non-accredited), 100+ hours of coaching experience with at least 8 clients (75+ paid, and at least 25 hours within the 18 months before applying), 10+ hours of mentor coaching over three months or longer (at least 3 hours one-to-one), a performance evaluation (built into Level 1/Level 2 programs, or one recorded session with transcript on the Portfolio path), and adherence to the ICF Code of Ethics. From January 1, 2027, new mentor coaching hours must be completed with a mentor coach who holds ICF's Mentor Coach Specialization (MCS). By April 1, 2027, skills validation from MCS mentor coaches replaces the performance evaluation recording and transcript for Portfolio candidates.
