Course duration: The course is the second of the two UEFA A Licence residential parts:

Part 1: Run over 12 days, during which time candidates were filmed delivering a practical session, as well as participating in the theory and practical sessions.

Part 2: Candidates will return for an eight-day Part 2 course, and will again be filmed delivering one practical session, as well as participating in the remaining theory and practical syllabus. Final assessment will take place after Part 2, and candidates will be sent details of assessment opportunities.

Please note that Part 2 and initial assessment must be completed within three years of taking the Part 1. Candidates will then have two further years for reassessment i.e. those who began Part 1 in 2012 must complete Part 2 and initial assessment before December 31st 2015.

Pre-course task: N/A

Post-course task: Continuation of theory work and logged coaching hours, leading up to final assessment.

Course assessment: Assessment is via successful completion of:

  • All candidate learning activities
  • The practical delivery of themed coaching session, utilising formats from the course syllabus in both a phase-of-play or small-sided, and then 11v11 practices

Re-assessment:

There is no limit to the number of reassessment opportunities, though candidates must successfully complete a re-assessment within the five-year registration period. Detailed, constructive feedback will be given at the end of the assessment, with an action plan regarding the next stage.

Please Note: The re-assessment fees are not included in the course fees listed.

Dress code: Standard dress code on the course is casual. For practically based courses, please bring sufficient outdoor kit/clothing for the duration of the course. The venue ask that candidates refrain from wearing muddy footwear inside the building.

Should the course require any alternative dress, this will be detailed in the course joining instructions.

If you are diagnosed as an asthmatic, diabetic or epileptic, or have any allergies that the course staff needs to be aware of, you must advise us accordingly.
