Important Announcement: Closure of MMS Coach Training and Inner Negotiation Workshops in Northern California

Dear valued community members,

It is with mixed emotions that we, Lindsey and Carla of MMSNorCal, announce the
discontinuation of our MMS Coach Training and Inner Negotiation Workshops in Northern
California after 8 wonderful years.

Why We’re Closing

The global pandemic has significantly altered the landscape of coach training offerings. Despite
our best efforts, we’ve found that the marketing and promotional expenses have begun to
outweigh enrollment results. This difficult realization has led us to the tough decision of closing
this chapter of our business.

Our Gratitude

We want to express our heartfelt thanks to all who have been part of this journey. Your
participation, enthusiasm, and growth have been the highlight of our work.

What’s Next for Us

  • Lindsey will continue to offer Mentor Coaching.
  • Carla is pursuing a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology.
  • Both of us are engaged in projects with How Women Lead.

Resources for Continued Training

available to lead a coach training for your organization.

Thank you for your understanding and support. We look forward to crossing paths with you in
our future endeavors.

Warm regards,

Lindsey and Carla MMSNorCal

– Dr. Chérie Carter-Scott
Founder of the MMS Institute

The MMS Institute is the birthplace of coaching: we’re the original and oldest coach training in the world, founded in 1974 by the Mother of Coaching, Dr. Cherie Carter-Scott.

What began in San Francisco over forty years ago has grown into a global organization, training coaches to ICF (International Coach Federation) standards; using the effective and powerful MMS methods.

We’re proud to provide a fully credentialed coach training, which prepares our students for the rigorous ICF credentialing exam. An ICF coach certification provides a path to leadership in the workplace, and deep personal growth comes from learning the coaching method. We offer both. Our trainings not only teach you the skills to coach, but provide the opportunity to be coached and receive live feedback throughout the process.

All courses are taught by ICF credentialed trainers.
