Coaches at club or regional level who want to learn more about improving athlete performance, and how to become a better coach should consider doing the Intermediate Coaching General Principles program.

The Intermediate Coaching General Principles includes a simple introduction to sport science concepts and further information on coaching skills. There are 13 modules in the program, and it can be completed either in a workshop or by correspondence through state or territory departments of sport and recreation.

The Intermediate Coaching General Principles are required by many sports within their sport-specific accreditation programs.  National and state sporting organisations can provide advice regarding which modules they require coaches to complete as part of a sport-specific accreditation. 

Many sports will also provide updating points towards re-accreditation to coaches completing modules from the Intermediate Coaching General Principles.

To enrol in the Intermediate Coaching General Principles, contact your state or territory department of sport and recreation (see related links below).
