PERFORMANCE COACH UPDATE

In order to keep our NCCP coach training current, we (AC and the Provincial/Territorial Branches) revise each context or course on a regular cycle. Over the last year we have revised the requirements and content of Performance Coach training.  

Here is what you need to know: 

  1. No one will lose status. If you are PC trained you will remain trained. If you are PC certified you will remain certified as long as you keep up with the required PD points (30 PD points every 5 years). 
     
  2. If you are partially through getting trained you can complete either the old or new pathway. Completing either one will give you trained status. This option will only be available until January 1, 2024. 
     
  3. If you are trained and want to complete certification or you have already applied for an evaluation and are in the process of completing it, nothing changes. Compete your evaluation as normal. The certification process has not changed but some additional information has been provided to clarify the process.  

Here is an overview of what has changed: 

Changes to eLearning: 
Coaches are required to complete specific elearnings before attending the Performance Coach Clinic. These elearnings remain mostly the same with a couple updates: 

These are all available in the locker for $25 each. This is a change from the previous price of $110 for all four.  

Changes to Performance Coach Clinic: 
The Performance Coach clinic is relatively unchanged.  

New elements include a module on Mental Performance and expanded resources for Learning Facilitators. Content from the previously required Multi-Sport Modules is now provided as part of the Performance Coach Clinic. 

Changes to Multi-Sport Module Requirements: 
The multi-sport modules required for trained status are now: 

  1. Making Ethical Decisions (MED). MED is required for Club Coach so you may already have completed it. If you need to find an MED course, Contact your PTCR.  
  2. Managing Conflict (MC). Contact your PTCR for the next available course.  
  3. Leading Drug Free Sport (LDFS). This is available in The Locker as one elearning that includes both training and evaluation.  
  4. Manage a Sport Program, Psychology of Performance, Coaching and Leading Effectively are NO LONGER REQUIRED. 

Cohort Option 

The Cohort option is unavailable for 2023-24.

The Cohort option allows coaches to sign up for several elements of Performance Coach at once and receive administrative support throughout a two-year cycle to complete their training and certification. The cost is $1000 (includes pre-learning, clinic fee, and evaluation fee). Registration deadline is April 30 of each cohort year. 

Coaches will have access to WhatsApp group and Coach Developers for support. 

Coaches can have the option to do evaluation through the AC National Coach Mentorship Program.

What is Performance Coach? 

The Athletics Canada Performance Coach Certification, offered through the National Coaching Certification Program, is an opportunity for high-achieving, motivated coaches to take their coaching career to the next level.

The Performance Coach Certification is designed for those coaches working with U20 and Senior Level athletes competing or aspiring to national and/or international competition. Coaches can sign up for one event group: sprints, endurance, throws, jumps, combined events, or wheelchair racing.   

The training for this course is event group focused and will help coaches to develop and enhance their skills and knowledge in biomechanics, physiology, technical models, nutrition, annual planning, strength, mental performance, safe sport, and coach self-care. 

Performance Coach is: 

Coaches must be NCCP Athletics Club Coach Certified and be coaching a U20 or Senior Level athlete competing or aspiring to national and/or international competition. Certain limited exceptions apply (Sport-Étude, completed part of a previous Performance Coach clinic, Branch request).
