Athletes need top calibre coaching in order to successfully compete at the highest level. At the Canadian Athletics Coaching Centre, excellence in athletics coaching education is achieved by working with our partners and delivering:

• Seminars where world class experts share their research, coaching practices and techniques.

• Workshops and courses to enhance knowledge-sharing across the athletics coaching profession.

• Mentoring programs with top Canadian athletics coaches.

• Opportunities for practicum experience in developmental and high performance athletics coaching education. This is offered to students in conjunction with the University of Alberta’s Faculty of Physical Education & Recreation.

• Participation in the National Coaching Certification Program.

The Centre will offer a variety of sessions that compliment existing educational opportunities. These programs focus on developmental and high performance athletics, with unique content delivered by world renowned authorities. Eventually, a series of courses aimed at developing well-rounded coaches will be in place. The course-based learning will be enhanced with mentoring opportunities with top developmental and high performance coaches.

The Canadian Athletics Coaching Centre believes that the best learning environments are created when athletes and coaches are able to jointly work in a functional environment. The Centre will strive to bring together coaches and athletes encouraging them to return to their communities and practice what they have learned.
