In a new online course from USA Cycling, “Coach-Athlete Communication,” coaches can earn 4 CEUs exploring:

  • the roles and responsibilities of the coach-athlete relationship
  • ways to listen and respond to athletes
  • approaches to common situations (like the post-race debrief)
  • and the art of motivation

This Coach-Athlete Communication course draws from The Craft of Coaching with Joe Friel plus new material to create a helpful guide focused on communication basics and specific tactics that coaches can put into practice immediately.
