The course was very informational and challenging in the sense that it made me take a look at "me" and what direction am I moving the program beyond the first tier. I can certainly improve by purposely activating and implementing the 2nd and 3rd tier qualities within me. It certainly will benefit the athletes, the school and the community. Very good course.

This course was a great experience! It helped me reflect on my purpose as a coach and gave practical tools to support my athletes both on and off the mat. I especially appreciated the focus on emotional growth and effective feedback.

I learned some things that will help me improve as a coach but overall the course is way too long and could have been engaging. I did like the quiz questions that required written answers but the other questions were simple and not very useful.
