Courses
Spaces Going Fast
Sport Across Staffordshire is Proud to Announce the launch of it's Disability Training Programme
The Aiming High Workforce bid has enabled Sport Across Staffordshire & Stoke-on-Trent to develop a clear pathway that allows for development of coaches, volunteers, support staff, parents etc.
The structure will incorporate existing courses but will allow for the development and introduction of newly created courses. The pathway has been split into three clear levels. These levels give the participants an understanding of what level the courses is structured at.
The three levels are:
? Generic
? Focused
? Specific
The Generic courses are a great introduction to disability sport and give you an overview and understanding of some of the considerations to think about when working with disabled people.
The Focused courses look at a type of impairment and look at some of the disabilities within each section. These courses go more in depth and these courses are designed for people who have attended the Generic courses or are already working with disabled participants.
The Specific Courses are totally focused on one particular disability. These courses will go in to detail about a specific disability and the considerations and issues around sport with that particular disability. These courses are designed for people who are already working with a specific disability or wish to work with a particular disability and have attended the Generic and Focused courses.
