Carson Coaching – Schedule & Fees: This agreement is valid as of date of execution and is for a minimum 12-month membership commitment (or 6 months if you selected the 6 month option). The set-up amount (if applicable) will be charged to your credit or debit card upon Carson Coaching’s receipt of this agreement. Monthly fees will be charged to your credit or debit card each month. If you terminate your membership before your commitment is completed, you must pay the monthly investment through your 12-month or 6-month commitment. After the completion of your initial 12 month agreement, this agreement will continue on a “month-to-month” basis. If you choose to end your membership after completion of the 12-month commitment, you must notify Carson Coaching in writing at least one (1) business day prior to the first of the month in which you’d like to end your membership. Monthly charges will cease on the first business day of the month following Carson Coaching’s receipt of your written request and your membership will continue through the month in which you are billed. All fees paid to Carson Coaching are non-refundable. Failure to pay Carson Coaching may result in turning your account over to a debt recovery program.
Specialty Coaching: This agreement is valid as of date of execution and until the final specialty coach call ends (either 3 calls or 6 calls). New calls with the specialty coach can be purchased after the first term of calls ends at the same rate. All specialty coaching calls are paid for up front. Specialty coaching does not give you access to an ongoing Carson Coach nor does it give you access to Carson Coaching online. The specialty coach will make reasonable accommodations to schedule all calls in a timely manner. However, availability of specialty coach is subject to current workflow and scheduling.
Carson Coaching Online Only – Schedule & Fees: This agreement is valid as of date of execution and until the membership is cancelled. Monthly fees will be charged to your credit card each month. You must notify Carson Coaching in writing at least one (1) business day prior to the first of the month in which you’d like to end your membership. Monthly charges and access to Carson Coaching Online and all its services, will cease on the first business day of the month following Carson Coaching’s receipt of your written request and your membership will continue through the month in which you are billed. All fees paid to Carson Coaching are non-refundable. Failure to pay Carson Coaching may result in turning your account over to a debt collection provider.
Coaching Services: If you have selected to work with a Carson Coach, you are entering into a 12-month or 6-month Coaching Program membership agreement with scheduled monthly 55-minute meetings, delivered via telephone or video conferencing platform (Coaching Services). Your Coach will be available to you by email and voicemail in between scheduled meetings, subject to reasonable limits. Carson Business Coaches operate in both the consulting and coaching arenas; your individual coaching agreement, including goals, priorities, and in which capacity your Coach operates, will be determined between you and your Coach. The dates & times of coaching meetings will be determined by the Coach and Client based on a mutually agreed-upon time. While every reasonable attempt will be made to schedule a coaching meeting in any given month, it is the responsibility of both the Client and Carson Coaching to ensure meetings are scheduled. Coaches will in good faith attempt to schedule/reschedule missed meetings; however, if Client does not respond to attempts to schedule coaching meetings or cancels scheduled coaching meetings, coaching services for the month may be forfeited due to Coach scheduling limitations.
Additional Services: Coaches or other Carson Subject Matter Experts may also be available for specific engagements and services, like meeting facilitation, team assessments, and subject-specific coaching or consultative work. Engagement fees (if any) will be determined before beginning those engagements.
Additional Benefits: You will be provided with one (1) complementary registration to Carson Coaching’s Excell Conference during your first 12 months of membership. Additional benefits, such as conference discounts, networking groups, and vendor discounts, may also be offered from time-to-time. One User for Carson Coaching online will be available for the terms of this agreement. Your coach will work with you to set up your online account.
Terms of Use and Privacy Policy: This Agreement and our Relationship are subject to and you agree to be bound by our online Terms of Use and Privacy Policy which can be found at https://www.carsonwealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Terms_of_Use.pdf and https://www.carsongroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Carson_Privacy_Policy.pdf respectively.
Confidentiality & Release of Information for ICF-Member Coaches: If you are matched with a Coach who is a member of the ICF (International Coach Federation), the coaching relationship and all information that you share with the Coach is bound by the principles of confidentiality set forth in the ICF Code of Ethics. Coaching meeting notes may be viewable by other Carson Coaching stakeholders, including other coaches, support team members, and management, who are bound by confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements. However, please be aware that the Coach-Client relationship is not considered a confidential relationship (like the medical and legal professions) and thus communications are not subject to the protection of any legally-recognized privilege. If the person being coached under this agreement (“Client”) is separate from the paying party (“Sponsor”), please ensure your assigned Coach is notified in writing so that separate confidentiality terms may be addressed and agreed-upon. Finally, ICF-Member Coaches engage in training and continuing education pursuing and/or maintaining ICF Credentials. That process requires the names and contact information of all Clients for possible verification by ICF. By accepting this agreement, you agree to have only your name, contact information, and start and end dates of coaching shared with ICF staff members and/or other parties involved in this process for the sole and necessary purpose of verifying the coaching relationship — no personal notes will be shared. If you do not wish for your Coach to maintain your information for purposes of credentialing, please make your opt-out request in writing to your assigned Coach.
