The coach education programme places a great emphasis on a coach's competence rather than knowledge (what they can do, rather than what they know). Through this, we draw out the importance of the ?how to skills of coaching rather than the ?what skills, in particular by integrating theory into practice. To enable a coach to progress, we aim to create more opportunities to put their coaching skills into practice, with readily available feedback from our tutors.
