Get into Coaching: Assistant Coach in Sport & Physical Activity

Designed for anyone supporting or assisting a coach in sport, exercise, health or leisure, this introductory eLearning course covers the core roles and responsibilities of an assistant coach. Learners work through three interactive modules alongside a virtual coaching scenario, developing practical skills in session preparation and delivery, warm-ups and cool-downs, and safe, ethical practice. A knowledge quiz and curated coaching resources are also included.

Delivered entirely online by UK Coaching, the course takes approximately four hours to complete and includes 12 months of UK Coaching Club Premium Membership. On successful completion, participants receive a UK Coaching Certificate — which can be used as evidence of prior learning towards a formal Assistant Coach qualification — along with a digital badge. The course carries CIMSPA CPD recognition, valid for 12 months.
