History of the Best Recovery Coach Training Program
The IAPRC’s mission is to provide leadership in the emerging field of Professional Recovery Coaching worldwide in order to enhance the quality of life and health for individuals, families and communities impacted by addiction. Our programs are designed to meet the rapidly changing needs of professionals and others working to provide substance abuse and mental health services. We have been in the field since 1996, known as NET Institute.
NET Institute has trained thousands of students worldwide who desire to strengthen families and communities and serve the addicted, the marginalized and the poor. Founded by Dr. Jean LaCour, she oversaw curriculum development, faculty selection and insured the maintenance of professional standards. She represented NET Institute nationally and globally. In early 2014, Dr. LaCour launched her newest and most innovative endeavor- The CPRC Professional Recovery Coach Program. Currently Cheryl Brown-Merriwether is serving as the Executive Director for the NET Training Institute – Center for Addiction and Recovery Education.
Ms. Brown-Merriwether has more than 20 years of experience as a professional in human resources, management, recovery support and adult education. Worth more than her 20 years of experience is the passion that she brings to this work. Our leadership is one reason that we are the best recovery coach training program.

“I appreciate that it came with a course guide that I can continue to use. I also like that I can go back and listen to the program whenever I need it. Honestly, I like the time frame I was able to finish it in. It’s not that it’s short; it’s that it is succinct. There is no spoon-feeding and that worked for me. …the instruction sounds like it’s coming from a place of care and not just business. That said, I really did appreciate the business advice and plans at the end.”K.L. CPC , New York
