Welcome to the online registration for the NCCP Aboriginal Coaching Module course hosted by Canadian Sport Institute Pacific in partnership with I•SPARC

The professional development of Indigenous coaches through NCCP certification has been identified by the Aboriginal Sport Circle (ASC) as a national priority. In order to educate and promote the value of the NCCP and to establish meaningful participation of Indigenous peoples in this national program, the ASC embarked on a multi-year process to develop supplemental training material for Indigenous coaches taking NCCP workshops. The result of this process is the Aboriginal Coaching Modules (ACM), which responds to the need for a national training curriculum with content that reflects the uniqueness of Indigenous cultures, values, and lifestyles.

The ACM is a professional development training tool for Indigenous and non-Indigenous coaches who coach Indigenous athletes, as they become certified through the NCCP. The material in the ACM has been developed to meet the following objectives:

– Provide culturally relevant training workshops to Indigenous coaches and community sport leaders;
– Elevate the capacity of Indigenous and non-Indigenous coaches to coach Indigenous athletes;
– Improve the quality of the sport experience for Indigenous athletes;
– Improve the coach’s understanding of, and ability to apply, Indigenous culture to sport and to coaching techniques and tactics;
– Enable Indigenous communities greater accessibility to the NCCP;
– Increase the number of NCCP certified Indigenous coaches;
– Make the wisdom of Indigenous culture available to both Indigenous and mainstream sport.
