<h3>Purpose</h3>
|
|
<p>Slowtwitch Coaching Certification Clinics are designed to educate coaches on how to better train their
|
|
athletes on specific aspects of swimming, biking, and running. By focusing on one specific topic, these programs are able to
|
|
delve deeper, thereby giving coaches practical tools that translate into
|
|
real-life training implementation strategies for working with clients, athletes and teams. More importantly,
|
|
coaches are given an opportunity to practice these skills through direct, hands-on coaching experience with
|
|
real athletes.
|
|
<p>Over the course of 2 days, coaches learn how to work with athletes of all levels from the basic beginner
|
|
to the most advanced. Beginning from the initial athlete introduction, the Slowtwitch Coaching Certification
|
|
Clinics take coaches along the journey of how to accurately assess an athlete, create an effective training
|
|
plan, measure progress and skill development, and spot the need for change along the way within an individual
|
|
sport perspective.
|
|

<p>The clinic requirement is met by attending a Slowtwitch coaching certification clinic.

<p><i>Background Check</i></p>
|
|
<p>Coaching certification candidates must pass a criminal history check through the NCSI background check
|
|
application prior to attending a clinic in order to become certified. The fee is $21.25 for most U.S.
|
|
citizens but does vary by
|
|
state. International background checks cost more and vary by country. Fees for the background check are not
|
|
included in the clinic registration fee. Each candidate must complete and pass the required background
|
|
check or entry into the clinic and certification are denied.</p>
|
|
<p>Background checks are based on <a href="<%config.build_root_url%>/coaching/Criteria.pdf">this criteria</a>. A failed background check results in the
|
|
candidate being ineligible for participation in a coaching clinic and certification. There is no appeal
|
|
process for failed background checks and no exceptions. Any candidate concerned about his or her
|
|
background should complete the background check prior to registration.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><i>CPR</i></p>
|
|
<p>A current CPR or AED certification is required at the time of the exam submission in order to be
|
|
certified. It may be youth or adult and can be taken online.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Certification Period</h3>
|
|
<p>Slowtwitch Coaching Certifications do not expire. Coaches are encouraged to continue their education on their own and return to a course in the future as they are continually evolving.</p>
