Course Description

Duration of the course 
The course is 11 days, comprised of nine days’ Core Training and two Elective days. Once complete, coaches book and submit a video-based Summative Assessment of an individual lesson.  

The Core Training is split into modules of two or three days, and each has a pre-module remote session, which is delivered via Collaborate on LTA Learn by your course Tutor. Coaches must attend all face-to-face and remote sessions.    

The electives are booked and paid for separately to the Core Training. 

The final assessment is a real-life lesson, with a player and venue of your choosing, which you will capture on video using a smartphone. For more details, please see the Assessments page.
