Online Level 3 Tactics Opportunity

Special Olympics North America has partnered with the American Sport Education Program (ASEP) to offer Special Olympics coaches online courses for those seeking advanced training or continuing education.  These sport-specific Coaching Youth [Sport] e-courses are available for basketball, soccer, softball, tennis and volleyball.  Each course includes units on general coaching principles, practice and game-day planning, safety and sport first aid, and sport-specific techniques and tactics.

There is a registration fee per ASEP course, which includes access to the online course as well as a copy of both the Coaching Youth [Sport] book and Coaching Youth [Sport] video.  You'll receive these materials in the mail a few days after you register for the course.  SOTX will not cover the registration fee.

Level I and Level II coaches may take ASEP's online Coaching Youth [Sport] courses in respective sports to become a Level III certified coach.  You will not be recognized as a Level III coach until you have completed the Level II Principles of Coaching certification; however, you can take the sessions out of order.  You will need to complete 10 practicum hours after the online session.
