Question 1

What is a ProgressTracks Coach?

Accepted Answer

A ProgressTracks (PT) Coach helps learners apply course principles in real life through encouragement, accountability, mentoring, and optional tele-coaching sessions.

PT Coaches support learners as they complete lessons, apply routines, and track their progress through the applied-learning process.

Coaches typically specialize in one or more PT courses and help learners stay consistent and motivated while working through the course.

Question 2

Who can become a PT Coach?

Accepted Answer

PT Coaches may include life coaches, wellness coaches, trainers, therapists, teachers, mentors, ministry leaders, or other professionals who support personal growth and development.

Anyone who is passionate about helping others grow and who is willing to apply the course principles themselves may apply to become certified to coach a course.

Question 3

Do coaches need to complete the courses they coach?

Accepted Answer

Yes. PT Coaches must subscribe to the courses they wish to coach and actively participate as learners.

This ensures coaches understand the course materials, apply the principles themselves, and can mentor learners based on personal experience rather than theory.

Coaches help learners implement the same principles they are practicing in their own lives.

Question 4

How does coach certification work?

Accepted Answer

To become certified to coach a course, a coach must subscribe to the course, complete the required course participation and certification steps, and apply for course certification.

Coaches also complete the PT Coach Certification training and pay a one-time course certification fee.

This helps ensure that certified coaches understand the course materials and can effectively mentor learners.

Question 5

How do learners choose a coach?

Accepted Answer

When learners register for a course, they can view profiles of certified coaches for that course. Learners may select a coach whose experience, coaching style, or availability best fits their needs. Strong and effective coaches naturally receive more coaching opportunities as learners choose to work with them.

Question 6

Can coaches offer introductory sessions?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Coaches may offer free or discounted introductory sessions to help establish a coaching relationship with learners. This allows both the coach and learner to determine whether they are a good fit before scheduling ongoing coaching sessions.

Question 7

How are coaching sessions scheduled?

Accepted Answer

Coaches typically provide a link to their scheduling calendar, such as Calendly, so learners can view available times and schedule sessions. Coaching sessions may be conducted using external meeting platforms such as Zoom, Google Meet, WhatsApp, or other video or messaging tools.

Question 8

Are coaches listed publicly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. ProgressTracks includes a public Coach Directory where coaches can display their profiles, credentials, specialties, pricing, availability, and the courses they coach. Learners can review these profiles and select coaches whose experience and approach best match their needs.

Question 9

Why coach through ProgressTracks?

Accepted Answer

ProgressTracks provides a complete applied-learning ecosystem that helps coaches focus on helping learners succeed. PT provides structured courses, a learner community, routines, journaling, assessments, progress tracking, and payment processing so coaches can focus on mentoring and coaching. Learners discover coaches through the PT Coach Directory and through the courses they enroll in, creating ongoing coaching opportunities for effective coaches. For many coaches, ProgressTracks functions as a turnkey coaching practice platform by providing the learning environment, learner pipeline, and coaching infrastructure.

Question 10

How many learners does a coach typically support?

Accepted Answer

The number of learners a coach supports depends on demand and the coach’s availability. ProgressTracks aims for a general guideline of roughly one coach for about every ten learners in a course, though this may vary depending on demand and coaching schedules. Coaches choose their own availability and may decide how many learners they want to support.

Question 11

How do PT Coaches earn income?

Accepted Answer

Most coaching income comes from tele-coaching sessions with learners participating in PT courses. Coaches set their own coaching fees, and sessions are typically scheduled through their calendar links. Coaches may also earn referral or affiliate income when they introduce current or former clients to ProgressTracks courses they coach.

Question 12

How are coaching sessions paid?

Accepted Answer

Coaching sessions are generally paid through the ProgressTracks platform using Stripe split payments. Coaches typically receive 70% of the session fee, while PT receives 30% for providing the platform, learner access, applied-learning environment, and payment processing. In some cases, such as licensed medical or professional practices, coaches may direct learners to their own external scheduling and payment systems. In those situations PT may charge a session facilitation fee.

Question 13

Can coaching sessions be scheduled outside the PT platform?

Accepted Answer

Most coaching sessions are scheduled and paid through the ProgressTracks platform so both the learner and coach benefit from the integrated course environment. Coaches generally agree not to move active learners into private coaching arrangements outside the platform while both the coach and learner are participating in the course. In some professional cases, such as medical or licensed practices, sessions may be scheduled through the coach’s own system with a PT facilitation fee.

Question 14

What is a Trainer Coach?

Accepted Answer

Trainer Coaches are experienced coaches who choose to provide supplemental materials to learners they coach. These materials may include additional assessments, lessons, or routines that support the official PT course content. These resources are hosted by PT but are available only to learners who work directly with that Trainer Coach.

Question 15

Is there a cost for hosting trainer materials?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Trainer Coaches who host supplemental materials pay a hosting fee starting at $50 per month per course. Providing additional materials helps establish the coach as a subject-matter expert and may support higher coaching fees.

Question 16

Can coaches earn referral or affiliate income?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Coaches may earn referral or affiliate commissions when they introduce current or former clients to ProgressTracks courses. This allows coaches to benefit when they help expand the PT learning community.

Question 17

What is Private Trainer / Coach hosting on ProgressTracks?

Accepted Answer

Private Trainers and Coaches can host their own learners on ProgressTracks with branded course access, supplemental materials, and optional coaching workflows. Hosting is designed for practitioners who want a structured applied-learning environment without building their own platform from scratch.

Question 18

Can coaches get a custom landing page?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Certified coaches and Private Trainers can publish a public coach profile and, at higher tiers, a dedicated landing page with a custom URL on ProgressTracks. Landing pages help learners discover your specialty, see how you work, and connect with you before they enroll or book coaching.

Question 19

How much does Private Trainer hosting cost?

Accepted Answer

Hosting and landing-page tiers depend on your setup — number of courses, learners, and supplemental materials. We do not publish a one-size-fits-all price table on the marketing site. Contact us through the coach application or support channels and we will walk through options that fit your practice.

Question 20

Can Private Trainers use ProgressTracks course content?

Accepted Answer

Authorized hosting arrangements can include cloning official ProgressTracks course structures for your learners, combined with your own branding and supplemental materials. Usage terms depend on your hosting agreement. Contact us to confirm what is included for your tier and learner group.

Question 21

Can an independent practitioner also be PT certified?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Independent practice hosting (Directory bundle) is about how you run your business on ProgressTracks—custom landing page, learner hosting, and a standalone directory listing. PT certification is a separate credential for coaching official PT courses. Many independent practitioners are PT certified themselves. Some require coaches on their team to earn PT certification and may also coach additional official PT courses when authorized. Contact us to discuss hosting and certification options for your practice.

Question 22

How do I get a coach landing page or Private Trainer hosting?

Accepted Answer

PT coaches typically start by applying for certification on a course, then explore the Landing page tier for custom sections on /coaches/your-name. Independent practitioners can ask about the Directory bundle (slug + landing builder + independent listing)—many are also PT certified. Hosting setup depends on your practice — contact us through Apply to Coach or the Contact Us form on the For Coaches page. We will walk through tiers and options with you; there is no published one-size-fits-all price table.

Question 23

Meetups (coming soon) — can coaches host group events?

Accepted Answer

Coach-led meetups — virtual or in-person group events where coaches gather learners and Doers for practice, Q&A, and community sessions — are on our roadmap. They are not live at launch; scheduling, RSVP, and payments are not available yet. If meetups are important to your practice, mention it when you apply — we will notify coaches when meetup features open.

Question 24

What are the costs to become a PT Coach?

Accepted Answer

Coaches pay the PT learner subscription for the courses they participate in. Coaches also pay a $100 annual PT Coach Certification fee. There is also a one-time $50 certification fee for each course a coach is certified to coach. There is no monthly coaching access fee for standard PT Coaches.

Question 25

Do Trainer Coaches pay additional fees?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Trainer Coaches who choose to host supplemental course materials pay a hosting fee starting at $50 per month per course. This allows their materials to be integrated into the ProgressTracks platform for learners they coach.

Question 26

Do coaches need to coach full-time?

Accepted Answer

No. Many coaches participate in ProgressTracks alongside their existing coaching, consulting, ministry, or professional practice. Coaches typically choose their own schedules and the number of learners they wish to support.
