Canada Soccer has announced that 30 coaches who participated
​in the A Licence courses in 2017 and 2018 have completed the subsequent requirements
​to gain certification. The A Licence is currently the top-level certification
​in the Performance Stream of Canada Soccer’s Coach Education Program for senior
​players currently playing in a college/university, professional club or academy
​environment.

The A Licence comes with a three-year validity and fulfills
​the coach education requirements of the Canada Soccer Professional Club Licence
​for the first-team head coach. More information on the Canada Soccer A Licence
​program is available at: https://canadasoccer.com/coach/coach-education-and-certification/a-licence/

The A Licence cohort follows announcements of the initial
​cohort of Youth Licence and Children’s Licence holders from the pilot programs
​of those programs. The addition of the Youth and Children’s Licence courses
​create three streams of coach education individualized for coaches working with
​children, youth, and senior players to ensure that coaches are providing
​developmentally appropriate training for players at each stage of development.
