Online
courses
The Australian Sports Commission
have brought coaches on-line! We now have some courses available on-line with a view to allowing coaches to
access all courses via the internet.
Sessions are streamed through the internet so that
students receive exactly the same material that a person sitting in the classroom or in a
videoconference with a trainer would receive.
The current on-line courses are:
- Level 2 Coaching Course - General Principles
Students can access live demonstrations of activities, a variety
of presenters, video footage, PowerPoint slides, demonstrations, discussion forums and
more - all in a self-paced, interactive manner on the student's own PC.
