The FA Introduction to Coaching Football – Tutor Recruitment
FA Education is committed to supporting football coaches in the role that they do, at every level of the game. As part of our new strategy to meet the needs of today’s coaches, harness digital capabilities and create personalised and connected learning experiences, a new Introduction to Coaching Football course is being launched.
This new course, which will replace the FA Level 1 in Coaching Football, is designed to provide learners with an introduction to coaching the game. It will give coaches more confidence in their role and help them run a team in a safe, fun and enjoyable way.
The course will run over four weeks, with learners given access to weekly topic videos, national webinars, coaching resources, e-learning modules and The FA coaching community. As coaches progress through each week of the course, they will experiment with topic themes, coach their players, and utilise course experiences.
