Athletics Canada offers the following NCCP workshops.

Sport Coach: This workshop introduces coaches to all of the events generally contested in a junior high environment and so is designed for coaches of athletes who are just beginning to compete. The technical models for all events (except pole vault, javelin, hammer throw, and steeple chase) will be covered including basic error detection and correction. Coaches will leave this 2.5 day workshop with the practical skills to plan their own practices and to link them into a monthly plan for their athletes. 

Club Coach: Take your coaching to the next level in this workshop designed for coaches of athletes who are beginning to specialize in one event group. How to create a seasonal plan will be covered, as well as in-depth technical knowledge of the event group. Event groups include: sprints and hurdles, endurance, throws, jumps, and wheelchair racing.
