The Coach Educator programme will keep our tutor workforce engaged in continuous professional development, ensuring courses are kept up-to-date and the best coach education is delivered to our football family.

The FAW have traditionally developed coach educators through a internal training system, only accessible to coach educators.

This newly launched tutor training programme will ensure alignment and quality assurance across all our education offers, across the association, to include coach educators and our wider tutor workforce who deliver courses such as EDI, Medical and Huddle.

“Supporting our workforce to become world leading educators across all levels of our pathway is a key factor to our future success in being a World class coaching nation.”

James Rowberry, Head of Elite Coach Education at the FAW
