Projections indicate the health coach market will reach a value above $28 billion by 2031—that’s a growth of about 62% over the course of seven years.

This is driven by the rise in prevalence of preventable diseases as well as an increased focus by some individuals to more closely manage their health. But they can’t do it alone—that’s where health coaches come into the center picture.

For those interested in becoming a health coach, navigating the education ecosystem can be complicated, especially with the industry becoming saturated with ways to seemingly learn the skills needed for success.

However, for the Catalyst Coaching Institute, it’s more than an industry—it’s a “joy.”

The health coach program was deemed “best overall” by Fortune’s inaugural list of the best health coach certifications—in part due to human-centered teaching and flexible learning opportunities.

“We were one of the first approved programs. I myself am a National Board Certified Health and Wellness coach, so I took the very first exam as well, along with many of our mentor coaches. We have a very, very experienced team.” says Suzanna Cooper, Catalyst Coaching Institute‘s co-founder and chief learning officer. The organization’s other co-founder is her husband, Brad.

The training institute was founded in 2011 as an offshoot of their organization focused on corporate wellness education. 

If Catalyst has piqued your interest, especially considering its top spot on Fortune’s list, keep reading to become informed more about the program and the questions to answers you may have.
