British Canoeing Awarding Body launch the NEW Performance Coach

June 29, 2020

British Canoeing Awarding Body is pleased to announce that the NEW Performance Coach Award is now available. 

The Performance Coach Award is an ideal programme for intrinsically driven, experienced coaches, who want to get better at coaching the paddlers they work with, and for those who seek recognition that their delivery meets enhanced levels of sophistication.

The learning journey is fluid and personalised to every coach who undertakes the programme. The key components of the award are the same but as an experienced coach, you will steer the direction and focus of your learning, in areas that are most relevant to you.

The Performance Coach Award is now available in 21 pathways, across all of our main disciplines and environments.

The Learning Journey can be explored in more detail in the Performance Coach Course Guide

Check it's for you
If you are interested in the programme, arrange a call with SCA. This will help you assess the programme’s suitability for your specific learning needs and allow you to check that it will provide the learning opportunities you seek. 

Digital Coach Self-Analysis Tool
Take this opportunity to go through the Coach Self-Analysis Tool which will aid you in identifying specific areas of development, helping you to plan your own unique learning journey. Based on your responses you will also be signposted to appropriate resources to support your learning and development.
