November 10, 2010 by Jimson Lee Leave a Comment

The fall season is a great time to get certified in any coaching discipline.  The USATF Level 1 is no different.  There are still several spots available depending on where you live.

Level 1 schools are usually two or two-and-a-half-day courses where 21.5 hours are spent on track & field and related sport science.  The course consists of classroom instruction as well as hands-on training.  Attendance at all sessions is required.

The costs is only $125 with an online exam which you can take afterwards, and not necessarily immediately after the course.  You have to study!

Here are the remain schools open for 2010:
