I’m very happy to introduce you to our Amazing CareerTM  Certified Coaches!

In 2016, Kathy Caprino launched her Amazing Career Coach CertificationTM training program, offered through Kathy Caprino LLC and designed exclusively to teach, train and guide career and leadership coaches to leverage Kathy’s Amazing Career Project proprietary training material and coaching framework within their own coaching practices that are focused on supporting the advancement of women at work.

The program also shares learnings from over 500 interviews Kathy has conducted for her Forbes column “Career Bliss” and Finding Brave podcast, and from her two books — Breakdown, Breakthrough and The Most Powerful You — featuring many of the nation’s (and global) top leaders, business experts, coaches, consultants, legal minds, educators, writers, entrepreneurial gurus, creatives, and more. These insights cover topics that are essential to women’s personal and professional growth and success.
