Concussion Awareness for Coaches

This eLearning course will give you an essential understanding of concussion, and the impact that it can have on someone’s life.

With a better understanding of what concussion is, you will be well-equipped to recognise the key signs and symptoms, and so better support participants that sustain a concussion.

You will also learn how you can support a participant’s safe and sustainable return to participation in sport and physical activity, including how you can adapt your sessions to meet their ongoing needs.

As part of the course, you will need to complete a short knowledge check that will give you the chance to test and confirm what you’ve learned.
