Home2025 UnConference

Join us for the annual ICF Colorado UnConference event, Connecting in an Artificial World. This in-person only event will be held on Saturday, October 4, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.


You won’t want to miss this opportunity to immerse yourself in community, build connections, learn together, and play with the idea of what is or can be considered artificial. The OED defines artificial as: made or produced to copy something natural; not real. This could include things like artificial intelligence, but it could also be a fixed mindset about what is real.


Our goal for this event is to get curious, explore ideas, and expand our perception of what it means to build connections for our coaching community and our community of clients. Let's spend the day together deepening our coaching skills and having fun! All coaches are welcome! (including non-ICF CO members).


Register today! 2025UnConference


What is the ICF-CO UnConference? Unlike a “conference," which is presented by multiple speakers on diverse topics, the “UnConference” is a loosely structured convening that provides time for integrated learning with each other, expanding connections, building community and enhancing coaching skills. This year’s UnConference will include some highly interactive sessions designed to foster new relationships and perspectives. The afternoon is reserved for triad coaching where you can experience or witness truly remarkable coaching. You can also put into practice ideas or tools from the morning sessions.


WHEN:     Saturday, October 4, 2025, from 10:00 am – 3:00 pm – Lunch will be provided


WHERE:   Institute for Faith and Work – 8100 Arapahoe Road, Centennial CO


COST:      $20 for Members and $30 for Non-Members


CCEU:     Pending


Who will benefit from attending the UnConference:


·    Anyone who wants to build connections with others – members and non-members

·    New coaches who want to expand their skills and practice.

·    Experienced coaches who would like to enhance their relationships and stay in connection with others

·    Coaches in training who would like to be a part of a community and interact with coaches at all levels

·    Masterful coaches with a commitment to lifelong learning to gain a fresh perspective
