Great players need great coaches. But who coaches the coaches?
Could you teach and train a football workforce?
Licensed FA Tutors have a pivotal role to play.
To create quality coaches, The FA must boast a qualified, specialist tutor workforce for each level of qualification and offer improved support.
This group of tutors will educate and shape the next generation of coaches by teaching ideas, values, philosophy and principles.
We now seek applications from coaches who possess the right credentials to fill these gaps in tutor provision (outlined in 'Application Information' below).
The benefits of becoming an FA Tutor include:
- Access to an environment of learning, working alongside some of The FA's national coaches
- Access to The FA's Tutor Club website, complete with resources and articles to support you in your work
- An excellent support package and CPD programme - including The FA's Generic Tutor Training Programme, which will equip you to be a skilled tutor.
Please download and complete the Tutor Application Pack relevant to your interest below and return it to the address highlighted on the personal details page. The Tutor Application Packs must be read in conjunction will the Tutor Information Pack.
The deadline for receipt of applications is 5pm on Wednesday 24 February 2010. Any applications received after this deadline will not be considered.
Applications will then be reviewed and all parties will be advised as soon as possible.
Please note that should you be considered for Tutor status, the relevant training event must be attended. These dates are shown below.
