What is a Teacher/Coach Licensing Scheme?

A licence equates to accreditation to practise and following the achievement of an ASA teacher/coach qualification candidates will be invited to apply subject to meeting a number of other specified criteria. 

The licence will be valid for a three year period and will be renewable subject to the holder meeting additional specified crtieria.  The criteria will be based upon accepted best practise but will not include a requirement for re-assessment.  Whilst the licence will require the licencee to keep up to date, teaching quality will remain the responsibility of the employer, club and the individual.  It is recommended that all employers incorporate a teacher monitoring process within their own quality assurance procedures.
