The first in our series of Coaching Breakfasts took place at the end of October - click here to read an article on the event.

Aimed at level 2 (or above) coaches, these events are an opportunity to network and to catch up on the latest in the world of coaching - and they're FREE! Here are the dates of the other scheduled breakfasts - click on the date of the breakfast for the latest information and to book online:

The Coaching Breakfasts start at 7.45 a.m. and finish just after 9 a.m. - a great way to start the week!

Development pathway

Ever wondered what workshops you should be doing to develop your skills? Confused about what comes next? Well, you're not alone - but we found an example of how you could use sportscoachUK's workshops to build a CPD (continuous professional development) programme, either for yourself or for other coaches in your club, school, etc.

Click here to see a diagram showing one example of a CPD programme for coaches - it's not a model, and is only one way of progressing, but it might give you some ideas.
