View a demo of the Coaching Principles course! As a scholastic coach, you’ll likely face pressure from many directions. School administrators, parents, athletes, and entire communities have high expectations for their sports programs, with “success” often measured by wins and losses. Good intentions are not enough; you need all the knowledge you can get. Most veteran coaches have learned through trial and error. Coaching Principles, Fifth Edition, Online Course helps new and inexperienced coaches shorten the learning process—and reduce painful errors—by teaching the principles of coaching rooted in the sport sciences and sharing the experience and wisdom of successful coaches. The content in Coaching Principles is drawn from one of the most authoritative guides ever written on coaching, Successful Coaching, Fifth Edition. Each course part corresponds with one of the five book parts.Part I challenges you to determine your motivation for being a coach. Introspective exercises ask you to develop a coaching philosophy, coaching objectives, and leadership style that will ultimately drive your every coaching decision and help you stay the course in a high-stakes, hypercompetitive environment.Part II focuses on understanding and managing athletes’ behavior. Successful coaches are master psychologists. Knowing how to communicate with, motivate, discipline, and reward athletes is essential for helping your athletes reach their full potential as well as manage their response to pressure situations that can lead to anxiety and burnout. Being an effective coach means being an effective teacher. Part III provides instruction for teaching technical and tactical skills, developing sport-smart athletes, planning and conducting practices, and implementing the games approach in coaching.Part IV addresses the coach’s role in training athletes to meet the physical demands of sport and achieve peak performance. The course has been updated with the latest scientific research on physical training and nutrition. Successful coaches are effective administrators, managers, and communicators. Part V covers the team management, relationship management, and risk management skills you’ll need to run sport programs that are efficient, cohesive, and safe. Each unit begins with an animated overview of the key concepts to be covered and a reading assignment from Successful Coaching, Fifth Edition. The course then presents several interactive coaching scenarios that depict real-life situations you’re likely to face. Choices and consequences are provided for each, compelling you to weigh potential responses and anticipate outcomes of your choices. A video with Brian Gearity summarizes key takeaways for each scenario. Rounding out the units are a quiz to check understanding and reiterate the main points as well as a coaching development activity, in which you’re encouraged to record your takeaways in a comprehensive portfolio for future reference and reflection. The course concludes with a 50-question test. A minimum score of 80 percent is required for certification, at which point your name will be added to the National Coaches Registry, an online listing of coaches who have completed Human Kinetics Coach Education courses and used by athletic administrators to verify coaching credentials. To document your achievement, you can print or save a certificate of course completion from the website.AudienceCoaches of athletes primarily between 12 and 20 years old (middle and high school) in need of coaching certification.
