Navigating the professional world can sometimes feel like a rollercoaster, and we all know a little guidance can go a long way. That's where career coaches step in. Whether you're chasing your career dreams, climbing the corporate ladder, or just figuring things out, having the support of a savvy career coach can be a game-changer.
In the online world, you no longer have to hunt for a satisfactory coaching experience in your vicinity, but at the same time, the wider the choice, the more overwhelmed we can feel. In this blog post, we're going to introduce you to six career coaching platforms you can reach out to. Let's dive in!
Femme Palette is a global career growth platform championing diversity and inclusion, helping (not only) women and other underrepresented group members to achieve their career goals. The absolute best part about Femme Palette’s offer is having your whole coaching journey bundled up in a comprehensive, stress-free program. Many coaching platforms will require you to enter the experience with pre-set coaching goals, and often also to select a coach yourself. At Femme Palette, you will receive help with setting up coaching goals if needed, and the team will offer you matches with the coaches best suited for your needs.
With Femme Palette’s program offer, you can choose between two different kinds of coaching experiences:
The Coaching program connects you with one of Femme Palette’s top-rated coaches for 6 hours of 1:1 coaching sessions. You can work on challenges such as self-confidence and Imposter syndrome, work-life balance, productivity, communication skills, leadership skills, or anything else you need support on.
Your second option is the Coaching & Mentoring program which allows you to enjoy the combined benefits of two different approaches to professional growth. In this program, you will first be connected with a certified coach for 3 or 5 coaching sessions based on your choice. After that, you will be matched with a mentor - a seasoned professional whose experience best matches your needs who will work with you on reaching your career goals, overcome challenges you may have discovered during coaching, and much more.
You can join all Femme Palette programs remotely from anywhere in the world. Whichever program you decide to join, you will also receive access to:
Betterup is a comprehensive coaching platform with services available both to individuals and companies. Each of their coaches is a certified expert, and Betterup will match you with the best coaching professional suited to your needs.
Thanks to the Betterup app, you can connect with your coach for 1:1 sessions directly from your phone. You will first meet them for a 30-minute coaching session where you will get to know each other. After that, you will be able to schedule regular sessions with your coach with a frequency best suited to your availability.
Betterup coaching runs on the base of a monthly subscription, offering various plans at different price points based on how often you want to meet with your coach.
As the provider of the most widely recognised coaching certifications, the International Coaching Federation (ICF) has also developed their Credentialed Coach Finder tool - a free searchable directory with listings for thousands of qualified ICF-credentialed coaches worldwide.
Individuals and businesses can use CCF to identify and select trained, qualified coaches best suited for their particular situation. The tool allows you not only to browse coaches that will best fit your needs, but also to compare them side-by-side. After you’ve made your choice, you can send a request to your desired coach.
The Muse is the first values-based career platform, helping individuals connect with jobs, companies, and careers that align with their most core values and priorities.
Among their other services, The Muse offers individuals a chance to connect with a career coach for various, mostly one-off, coaching services such as a resume review, career Q&A, job search strategy, or even leadership coaching.
The benefit of this platform lies mostly in speedy availability - after choosing your preferred coaching service, you will be invited to choose the coach you want to work with and schedule your session before you get started.
Noomii is a professional coach directory with a database of thousands of coaching professionals. You can browse coaches in different categories such as entrepreneurship coaches, performance coaches, leadership coaches, and more.
Once you’ve defined what you’re looking for in your coaching experience, you can either go ahead and schedule a free consultation with a coach of your choice, or request a match from Noomii. Either way, you will be able to learn more about your potential coach and experience a free consultation with them before you decide firmly if you want to work with them.
Pricing varies depending on the coach you choose to work with.
CareerWorx is a UK-based platform offering a range of career development, career coaching, executive coaching and business coaching services.
Coaching and support provided by qualified, experienced and dedicated coaches. With extensive international experience in corporate, public service and the third sector, we provide a range of career and business support services.
