It can be studied full-time or part-time. It will enhance your existing knowledge as a sport coaching practitioner by extensively broadening your understanding of the theories and concepts that underpin high-performance settings.Behind every athlete, team or club lies a coach or group of coaches whose primary aim is to optimise performance. The processes and principles behind this operation are essential ingredients individuals must acquire in order to master their craft as coach. Therefore, before the success of the individuals or team can be acknowledged, a coach must learn more about the art of reflection, identity, leadership, and how their actions and behaviours help to shape the creation of high-performing environments for the athletes they work with.The course is primarily designed for graduates who are already in sport coaching roles. On the MSc High-Performance Sport Coaching you'll examine your practices and processes critically, enabling you to further develop your identity as a coach, to enhance leadership skills and the creation of high-performing environments.
