The ICF Research Portal serves as a Web gateway, or access point, to a broad array of resources about coaching research. This portal has been designed to feature topical coaching industry research that is available to users in many different formats, such as: Articles, Case Studies, Journals, and Reports. Should users of the ICF Research Portal be unable to find any items from within the current portal archive which satisfy their search for coaching research, it will be the intent of the research portal to provide the user with links to other coaching industry repositories which may be better suited to fulfill those requests for information.**

Before an individual item or link can be included in the ICF Research Portal, it must first be evaluated by a research reviewing subcommittee. The individual members who serve on this group are determined by the ICF Research and Education Committee (R&E). The primary duty of this reviewing subcommittee is to evaluate and to categorize all items which have been submitted by external sources for possible inclusion in the ICF Research Portal. These qualified and unbiased individuals have pledged to review all items that are submitted to the organization on a first come-first serve basis. Through the course of their ongoing work, this group will be tasked periodically with determining if any significant knowledge gaps exist within the research portal.
** Wherever possible, the ICF will attribute the source of the item within its description. As many of the items listed in the ICF Research Portal were not produced by the ICF, they cannot be considered “ICF Branded” research. The ICF shall not be held responsible for any information or opinions expressed within these “non-ICF branded” items. Further, it should be noted that the information contained within any of these “non-ICF branded” items shall be received "as is" and has not been verified by the ICF for timeliness, accuracy or completeness.
CONSENT: The ICF reserves the right to reproduce on its Web site any item that has been submitted to the ICF for possible inclusion on the ICF Research Portal. If you wish to have an item reviewed by the R&E subcommittee for possible inclusion in the ICF Research Portal, please download the following CONSENT FORM and complete the information regarding your submission. You may submit your research item/consent form to ICFResearch@coachfederation.org.
