I just got news today that I am a SCAC! No, I'm not a skank or scab but a SCAC. SCAC stands for Senior Certified ADHD Coach. It's a crendential from the Institute for the Advancement of ADHD Coaching or the IAAC. I am among a small group of ADHD Coaches who have been credentialed as SCACs too!






Tara,
First off, congratulations on your new accreditation.
Now, forgive me if you've covered this in past blog entries, but I was wondering what a typical career path is for a professional ADHD coach. I worked briefly with a coach before I moved a year or so ago, and he also was ADHD. Therefore, my small sample of two or three is that there are a lot of coaches who are themselves ADHD!
I'm presently going through career-related dark night of the soul for like the millionth time, and trying to evaluate more person-related careers, especially ones that could help me advocate for other people struggling with the same stuff I am struggling with.
Anyway, I'd love any info you can provide on how one becomes a coach.
