Taking the Course:
• In order to register for the course, candidates will first be required to sign up for a user account in the U.S. Soccer Digital Coaching Center- a state of the art online educational platform
• The course takes approximately 2 hours to complete. However, candidates can stop, rewind, or restart the webinars as often as needed
• After registering for the course, candidates are granted access to the course content for 12 months. The course may be successfully completed at any time during this period
Assessment
Following each webinar, candidates are required to complete a series of multiple-choice questions. To successfully complete each webinar, all checks for understanding must be answered correctly. To maximize comprehension and facilitate learning, candidates will have multiple attempts to correctly answer all questions.
How do I get reimbursed by the club?
Once you register for the course/license online at the US Soccer Digital Coaching Center, you will receive an electronic financial receipt from US Soccer for the cost of the course. This receipt can act as your receipt for financial reimbursement. Once you have successfully completed and passed the “F” course, you will then have the ability to print your diploma. At that point, these two items should be sent (scan or forward the email of successful completion) to Renee Bates (reneebates68@gmail.com) who is the VSC Treasurer. She will then reimburse you with a check for the cost of the course.
