What is the Coach Certification program?

The Coach Certification program facilitates a culture of continuous learning and provides coaches with flexible access to relevant, up-to-date education on safety, quality coaching, and rowing-specific best practices – regardless of where they live or how many local resources are available. From the full-time coach trying to grow their career to the volunteer coach helping out a few mornings a week, USRowing is committed to better educational support for coaches, which will also further USRowing’s strategic goals of experience, inclusion, and performance. The certification program will help create a safe, athlete-centered, and developmentally appropriate environment where both athletes and coaches can thrive.
