You or your club/organisation will have 7 days from the day you receive confirmation to make payment to secure your place on the course, before it is offered to those held on the waiting list.

What’s NEW for 2015?

We will be offering a pre-course session for candidates taking the certificate courses, as well as induction sessions for coaches who will be supporting certificate course candidates with their supported practice. Whilst these sessions aren’t compulsory they are highly recommended and are there to provide the best experience both on and away from the course.

An interactive tool has been produced to provide coaches who will be supporting candidates with an insight into some of the content and themes delivered on course.
