SUCCESS® Certified Coaching Program
The SUCCESS®
Coaching Certification
Join the first coaching certification backed by 129 years of SUCCESS principles. Science-backed methodology. World-class faculty. A legacy that transforms.
What Sets Us Apart
Why This Is Different
There are thousands of programs. Most teach tactics. We teach transformation.
129-Year Foundation
Built on SUCCESS magazine's proven principles of achievement — not trends, not fads, but timeless truth since 1897.
Identity-First™ Coaching
We don't start with goals. We start with who your client is becoming. Identity drives behavior. Behavior drives results.
Built-In Practice Building
You won't just learn to coach — you'll learn to build a coaching practice. Marketing, pricing, client acquisition, all included.
Live Weekly Sessions
Real-time coaching practice with Courtland Warren and your cohort. Not pre-recorded — live, interactive, and personal.
Peer Community
Learn alongside a curated group of coaches. Practice in real time. Get feedback from peers and faculty every week.
SUCCESS® Framework
A structured, science-backed methodology grounded in 129 years of research and refined through 20 years of coaching.
Curriculum
What You'll Master
A complete coaching certification designed to make you a transformational coach and a thriving business owner.
Biology of Breakthrough
Understand the neuroscience behind transformation — how the brain changes, why habits form, and how to create lasting shifts.
Identity Architecture
Master the Identity-First™ framework — help clients redefine who they are before they change what they do.
Creating Systems
Design repeatable coaching systems and processes that produce consistent results for every client.
Commitment & Action
Learn how to move clients from insight to action — accountability frameworks, resistance patterns, and momentum building.
Engage Support
Build the community and support structures that sustain transformation — peer coaching, group dynamics, and referral systems.
Score, Reflect & Sustain
Measure coaching outcomes, refine your approach, and build a sustainable practice that grows year after year.
The Legacy Behind the Mission
Coach Orison
In 1897, Orison Swett Marden founded SUCCESS® Magazine with a single conviction: that every person has the power to achieve greatness. He believed that the right principles, the right mindset, and the right guidance could unlock potential in anyone — regardless of where they started.
Often called the father of the American self-help movement, Marden authored over 50 books on personal achievement and inspired millions. His magazine became the voice of possibility for an entire generation — and 129 years later, that voice still echoes in everything we teach.
“There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow.”
