FAQ’s

  • The WCFM Student program is aimed at high school learners (16+), tertiary students, and first-time job seekers, while the Professional program is aimed at more mature individuals with work experience. While there are many similarities between the programs, the emphasis of the Student program is on identifying career and study options, while the focus of the Professional program is on career development/management (and potential transition). Both programs feature valuable insights into motivational drivers, but the Professional program also explores the level of motivational satisfaction within an individual’s current work environment.

  • While it is possible to complete the WCFM program as a candidate, you will need to do so in consultation with an accredited practitioner. We can recommend accredited WCFM coaches, on request (independent practitioners set their own WCFM coaching consulting fees). Bear in mind that if you complete the program as a candidate and decide to proceed with accreditation training as a practitioner later on, you will have to redo the WCFM program and thus duplicate much of this process. We therefore recommend that if you are interested in using the WCFM as part of your career guidance or coaching practice, you complete the Accreditation Training and gain all the benefits that this offers. As part of the training you will gain insight into your own unique career profile and experience the career-building activities that make the WCFM program so powerful.
