About this event
CCEUs: 1.0 in Resource Development
Date: September 16, 2026
Time: Noon - 1:00pm PT
In this Lunch & Learn, presenter Olivier Malafronte offers coaches a timely and comprehensive look at the current state of AI in coaching — where the research stands, how the market is evolving, and what it all means for your practice.
He’ll share the latest research and market trends, demo an AI coaching platform built by coaches for coaches, and walk through real-world illustrative case studies from his clients to illustrate the current market and research states.
You'll leave with a clearer understanding of what AI coaching looks like, what clients are asking and saying, how to integrate AI into your practice today, and how to position yourself as a human coach in front of, and alongside, AI.
