Aboriginal Coaching Module

The Aboriginal Coaching Modules (ACM) responds directly to the need for a national coach training curriculum that reflects the uniqueness of Indigenous culture, values and lifestyles. Originally designed for coaches of First Nation, Métis and Inuit heritage, the program has been expanded to include non-Indigenous coaches working within Indigenous communities and with Indigenous people.

Designed to complement the NCCP certification process, the ACM is a professional development training tool for all coaches who coach Indigenous athletes. Learn more here about the general and long term objectives. Typically these modules are completed in a 1 day (8 hour) workshop but can be provided separately upon request.

The ACM is comprised of three learning modules:
Module 1: Holistic Approach to Coaching
Module 2: Dealing with Racism in Sport
Module 3: Individual and Community Health and Wellness

Open to all Coaches and Volunteers in Special Olympics.
