Course Information
Level 1 Triathlon Coach
The level 1 qualification will allow a coach to lead and deliver (pre-planned) sessions or plan basic sessions on their own (reviewed by higher level coach) in a range of club environments (without the need to be directly supervised). You will gain the knowledge to adapt sessions to meet the needs of a variety of participants.
Course content includes:
-
Safety in coaching triathlon activities
- Preparing sessions for delivery
- Develop key coaching and technical skills
- Learners will have access to an online resource(LearningHub), with the technical components of the sport across swim, cycle, run and transitions.
Course Overview
- For 2020-21 the classroom elements will be replaced by webinars and the practical elements will take place over a weekend face to face.
- A third day comprising a final practical coaching assessment, personal review and action planning. For 2020-21 we are working with our awarding body to replace this final day with a video assessment
- Home study - around 10-14 hours over 3-4 weeks (including some pre-course work). Learners with limited triathlon experience may require some extra reading time (3-5 hours)
You will be required to complete home study online tasks, plan, deliver and review practical sessions (on course).
Please ensure you can attend the webinars and dates as listed, whilst we will aim to record all course webinars ths cannot be guaranteed.
