A Supplemental Coaching Endorsement prepares educators with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively coach student-athletes in school-based sport programs. The endorsement provides foundational preparation in coaching philosophy, athlete development, sport skills and strategies, leadership, communication, motivation, safety, injury prevention, and ethical decision-making.
