What the college says
The Pearson BTEC Level 3 Foundation Diploma in Sports Coaching and Development focuses primarily on progressing to employment as an assistant coach. It is intended for post-16 students who want to progress directly to employment, including self-employment, in sports coaching and development roles. It is also suitable for those wishing to progress to higher education, where students have the added advantage of using the qualification to help them obtain part-time employment while studying.
