UEFA FREE COACHING COURSE ONLINE
UEFA has teamed up with iCoachKids to provide new coach education modules for those thinking of or already working in the grassroots game.
To help people thinking of getting involved with coaching, as well as existing coaches, teachers, volunteers and parents, UEFA has teamed up with iCoachKids, a not-for-profit global coaching movement, to provide a free learning tool to help deliver the best sessions possible.
The UEFA iCoachKids e-learning courses have been launched to help all UEFA member national associations to offer those working with children a comprehensive online coach education resource.
A football coach can inspire a child for life, and the modules provide ideas for how coaches can engage children in an effective and positive environment, fulfil their needs and deliver developmentally appropriate and progressive sessions.
The free courses, which are open to everyone, supplement the new UEFA C Diploma and incorporate a mixture of content in videos, interactive activities and practical work where the coach engages in real-life tasks related to the content covered in the courses.
The online courses provide a great entry-level step before coaches start formal coach education, or as a top-up to the UEFA C Diploma. Upon completion, participants will receive a certificate of attendance which is recognised as further education, in accordance with the 2020 UEFA Coaching Convention.
Course content is based on the latest scientific research and best practice in youth sport, and in European football associations in particular. Courses are available in English, French and Spanish, with German and Russian coming soon.
