The British Canoeing Awarding Body Core Coach Course looks at the 'Who', 'How' and 'Why' of coaching.

This is a two day training course, combining classroom sessions and water-based practical sessions, that will explore different approaches to coaching, develop your understanding of learning and how best to enable your learners to develop their paddling.

The course will also give you opportunities to practice some core coaching skills, and to observe a variety of coaching behaviours. 

You will finish the course with a clear understanding of the next steps on your coaching journey, and an Action Plan to help you continue your coaching development.
