Coaching Association of Canada (CAC)
Professional Development Points
Information and resources
Coaches in Manitoba must meet the Coach Certification Policy. In addition to this, the CAC requires that all coaches maintain their certification via professional development points. The purpose of this program is to increase your knowledge mostly through non-sport specific training or multi-sport training.
Please note that it is your responsibility to stay on top of your points. If you do not meet the requirements, the CAC will change your certified status to trained. At this point you will no longer be eligible to be on deck at provincial level meets.
Manitoba Artistic Swimming will offer occasional sport specific and/or non-sport specific opportunities. Points are earned based on the parameters set out by the CAC and Canada Artistic Swimming.
If you are attending, or have attended, something not delivered by Manitoba Artistic Swimming, Canada Artistic Swimming or the CAC you can self-report these in your Locker profile, under the certification page.
REMEMBER: you are eligible to earn one point per year as an active coach. Points must be recorded annually through the self-report process on your Locker profile.
Since most non-NCCP learning opportunities are offered through other organizations, MAS will do it’s best to provide information and links on this page for your convenience. If you know of any opportunities that you would like to pass along, please send the information and link to Holly Hjartarson, Technical Coordinator at technical@manitobaartisticswimming.ca.
