Stages of Certification and Training
A coach is described as:
• “In Training” – when a coach has completed some of the required training for a context;
• “Trained” – when a coach has completed all required training for a context;
• “Certified” – when a coach has completed all evaluation requirements for a context
Difference between Community Stream and Competition Stream
Coaches in the Community Stream will be trained. Coaches in the Competition Stream will be certified upon the successful completion of an evaluation.
What Pathway should you take?
If you’re not sure what stream you should enter, consider this advice… Think about the age and type of curler you would like to instruct or coach. Remember as your skill level progresses you can always take further training.
