Intro

Ready to develop your mentoring skills?

Expressions of interest are now open for the Supporting Coaches in Practice workshop.

The Australian Sports Commission (ASC) in partnership with the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC) invite you to express your interest in the free ASC Supporting Coaches in Practice training.

  • Development opportunity including eLearning course (90 minutes) and face to face workshop (1 day).
  • Learn how to support the development of coaches through on-the-job mentoring.
  • Leverage coach-centred action planning to support higher levels of intrinsic motivation and accountability.

Workshop overview

In the 1-day workshop, participants will:

  • identify and practice the skills required for effective on-the-job coach mentoring, including building rapport, pre-session briefing, objective observation and feedback conversations
  • encourage coach-centred reflection and action planning to help coaches monitor their progress and reset goals as necessary.

Target

This development opportunity is relevant to:

  • existing mentors or coach developers
  • experienced coaches wishing to start mentoring others
  • State Sport Organisation club development officers
  • State Sport Organisation Training Managers invited to attend in either an active or observer role.

Due to the highly practical nature of the session, the face-to-face workshop will not have a virtual attendance option.

This will be an expression of interest process closing Thursday 1 May. The outcome will be advised on Thursday 8 May.
