Canoe Wales in association with British Canoeing provides a range of coaching qualifications aimed at everyone from club paddlers and novices to advanced paddlers in a range of disciplines.
Below is an overview of each award. You can start at either Paddlesport Activity Assistant, Paddlesport Instructor or Coach. It all depends on what you want to coach and which environment you wish to coach in.
Paddlesport Instructor
The Paddlesport Instructor course launched in 2019, replacing the Level 1 Paddlesport Instructor in response to feedback from clubs, providers, centres and coaches. You can watch an introductory video here: https://www.britishcanoeingawarding.org.uk/new-paddlesport-instructor/
