Welcome to the coaching center for the CernySmith site. Coaches who are qualified to use CSAI cross-cultural assessments represent a broad spectrum of the helping professions. Examples are executive and organizational coaches, EAP counselors, educators, chaplains, Family Service counselors, psychologists, social workers, and physicians.

About your Coaching Account
Now that you are a qualified CSAI coach you have your own account on the CernySmith site. If this is your first visit since being approved please select the option to pay your initial account fee of $199 before you access your account.  It then is easy to access your account by selecting the Account Access button and entering the Account Login and Password you designated. Protect your Account Login and Password because they insure the security of your account privacy and the confidentiality of your clients’ reports.

How to Manage My Account
Your coaching account is your management tool for:

1.      Purchasing qualified CSAI assessments 

2.      Creating an Access Code for each new block of assessments purchased 

Note - Instruct each Client to enter the Access Code along with your Coach ID in order to take his/her assessment at the Testing Center.

Note - If you want to purchase additional assessments for an existing Access Code, go to the General Payment Center portal on the left menu bar. Pay the purchase amount and instruct Client Services to credit the new assessments to your CoachID and designated Access Code. You will receive an email receipt.

3.      Tracking which clients have taken assessments and when they did so

4.      Downloading client reports that are ready for coaching

5.      Maintaining the status of how many purchased assessments have been administered and how many remain

6.      Designing and ordering team reports which may be compiled using any single or group of Access Codes
