NEW for 2020 SCA Community of Learning Events
These British Canoeing Awarding Body, 2-day events are designed for well-practiced and experienced coaches who wish to refine and further develop their coaching practices.
They can be accessed as stand-alone events to support your ongoing learning and development, and are also linked to the NEW Performance Coach Qualification helping coaches on this pathway to progress.
The events will have a very different look and feel about them to what you’re used to from coach training; with no fixed syllabus it is up to the facilitator team to create an inspiring programme to help you further your knowledge and understanding of a wide range of relevant topics. Book early and you’ll be able to influence the programme content if you’ve got topics that you want to explore.
These events are open to qualified Performance Coaches, coaches on the pathway to completing their Performance Coach, and anyone else with a coaching qualification (e.g. Coach Award, UKCC L2, MWE or AWE or BCU Level 3/5). The only other prerequisites are Membership, First Aid and Safeguarding Training.
The idea is that you get to share these events and the learning with other well qualified and experienced coaches. The opportunities for learning with, and from, each other being a core principle that will under pin the style of learning.
Attendance at the event might be the inspiration and motivation you need to advance your practices; you’ll also get to ‘dip your toe into’ the NEW Performance Coach Qualification and may wish to start on the pathway to complete this qualification.
