Zurich, February 18, 2011 – The new International Academy of Coaching Sciences is founded in Zurich, Switzerland. The Academy is a non-university research institution, and provides researchers a platform for scientific exchange. The Academy is at the rank of an Academy of Sciences.
Subject of the International Academy of Coaching Sciences is coaching as a scientific discipline. The Academy bridges the gap of the developing research field of coaching.
