Why BlueRio’s Training Stands Out
Not all coach training is created equal — and in a field that’s rapidly professionalizing, where you train matters.
- 20+ Years of Proven Experience. BlueRio has offered group training to the public since 2004 and coach-specific training since 2010 — a track record most programs in this space simply can’t match.
- CCE–BCC Approved Training. Most of our coach training programs are approved toward the Board-Certified Coach (BCC) credential, giving you a direct path to the qualifications clients increasingly expect. BlueRio is a RCTP provider # 1037-BCC
- Real Instructors, Real Feedback.– Whether you join a live workshop or a self-paced virtual program, an actual instructor reviews your posts and assignments and gives you personal, collaborative feedback. No algorithms standing in for mentorship.
- A Science-Backed, Founder-Led Approach. Our curriculum is shaped by founder Jessi LaCosta, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC) and CCE Board Certified Coach (BCC) — one of the first in the U.S. to bring Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) together with brand development and coaching to build businesses and strengthen leadership.
- Reach Without Losing the Personal Touch. Our programs serve clients nationwide and internationally, yet every learner still gets individualized attention — a rare combination in online training.
Scope of Our Services
As the founder (and a Social Entrepreneur), I have dreamed for many years of ways to engage like-minded professionals in order to make deep impact on the community we live in, which I often refer to as “Sage Solutions for Social Impact.”
In 2004, I began BlueRio offering coaching, training, and consulting. Eventually, the company branched out into coach certification training that had a social impact element. Our flagship program focused on the reintegration and transition of US military veterans into the civilian sector. Then with the support of many, we moved into transformational leadership, and resilience in general under the name of the BlueRio Institute. We have also offered onsite training and consulting, coaching for coaches, as well as thought leadership speaking engagements.
Coaching
Our graduates are trained in many areas of coaching including leadership, military transition, tramformation, resilience, family dynamics and more!
Online Courses
Most of our online courses are self-paced coach training programs Many are CCE, BCC approved, and even as they are “on demand” they often offer access to faculty.
Certification
Offering coach certification – 30, 36, 60, 120 hours. Currently ALL Coach Certification programs are BCC-Approved. RCTP 1037-BCC
*Some courses may be approved for Army Cool/Army Credentialing Assistance funds if the applicant intends to earn the BCC.

*The Department of Defense and the Department of the Army are neither affiliated with nor endorses BlueRio Institute.
Consulting
Consulting in areas of strategic planning, resilience, culture alignment and talent optimization mostly handled by the founder and contributing partners. Learn more at our parent site. BlueRio Strategies.
Onsite and Hybrid
Delivering onsite workshops and training as well as hybrid solutions for coach training that combine virtual and in-person learning.
Thought Leadership & Impact Projects
We examine potential paradigm shifts in personal and professional development, develop new models and commit to impact projects in our community.
Access to the Founder – Jessi LaCosta

Because of technology, we can offer so many virtual options for many time-zones. Still, we know how important it is to collaborate, learn from and connect with others. So most of our courses have discusssion boards and other ways to intereact with peers. Graduates often act as mentors. AND many of our courses are taught by the founder and most certification programs include additional 1:1 sessions with LaCosta, ICF PCC, CCE BCC

“I am truly humbled by Jessi’s gratitude and knowledge as a coach and coaching instructor. She wholeheartedly shows compassion and unwavering knowledge and gives truth to the meaning of empathy and strength. She’s a true guide and mentor. Jessi goes exceedingly far beyond her job description and gives 1000% to each of her students and clients. I have honestly never come across someone who is so real and earnest yet so professional. Jessi is the epitome of a true leader, professional, and coach. I highly recommend Jessi as a coach and coaching instructor. She will far exceed all expectations. She truly cares about every individual and it shows.”
