Everything your organization needs to get parental leave right.
From our scalable coaching and training platform to strategic consulting, every solution we offer is built on the only evidence-based parental leave methodology in the world, developed by the Center for Parental Leave Leadership.

The full-system difference:
- Parents
- Managers
- HR
- Organizations
Most parental leave consulting and coaching solutions address individuals. CPLL addresses the full system together—parents, managers, teams, and organizational culture. Because data shows that when only one part of the system is supported, the results fall short and others absorb the cost. Whether you’re looking for a scalable benefit for every employee, a strategic partner to redesign your leave practice, or the tools to build internal solutions, everything we offer is built on the same evidence-based foundation with the full system in mind. Because fixing one part while ignoring the others isn’t a solution, it’s a band-aid.
RETAIN Coaching™
Who it’s for: Organizations looking for a 1-to-1, or scalable, evidence-based solution that supports every employee touched by parental leave: parents, managers, teams, and HR.
RETAIN Coaching™ is the only evidence-based parental leave coaching methodology in the world. Developed by Dr. Amy Beacom, this approach is the foundation of everything CPLL offers. Organizations can bring it to their workforce through the RETAIN Coaching Hub™, a comprehensive digital platform and app that offers structured learning, peer community, expert resources, and access to live coaching for parents, managers, and HR professionals. For organizations or individuals who want a higher-touch experience, 1:1 coaching with a certified RETAIN Parental Leave Coach is available to employees at all levels, including executives. Whether self-paced or high-touch, your employees will benefit from the same proven methodology, delivered in the right way for your needs.


Consulting & Research™
Who it’s for: Organizations who want to enhance how they approach parental leave and how they put it into practice.
Our consulting and research engagements start where an organization has its biggest gap, which is often the distance between what’s written in a leave policy and what employees actually experience. We offer comprehensive Policy & Practice Audits, parental leave policy and program design and optimization, custom research options, strategic advisory engagements and more. By partnering directly with your HR leaders, people teams, and executives, we’ll help you build a parental leave practice that creates lasting improvement your employees feel. We don’t hand you a solution and walk away. We work alongside your team until you decide you’ve got it right.
Certification & Training
Who it’s for: Organizations that are ready to bring parental leave expertise in-house through manager training, in-house coaching, or custom programming.
The best parental leave programs are built from the inside out. CPLL’s certification program and training offerings equip organizations with the tools to develop their internal expertise. Train people managers through the Leave Leader™ Manager Training Series. Certify an in-house RETAIN Coach through the RETAIN Coaching Institute™. Or partner with us to build something custom for your specific needs. Whatever the path, the goal is the same: parental leave expertise that lives inside your organization, with support from us only if you want it. For external coaches looking for certification, we have that for you too.
