Frequently Asked Questions - Coaches Edge Program

Who is required to participate in the 2017 Coaches Edge program?

Anyone who plans to have a coach credential at the 2017 USA Taekwondo National Championships. 

I have a coach certification through USAT (including, Associate; Level 1; Level 2). Do I need to participate in the Coaches Edge Program?
Anyone who plans to have a coach credential at the 2017 USA Taekwondo National Championships must complete the 2017 Coaches Edge requirement.

Why is this a requirement?
The Coaches Edge program allows USA Taekwondo to ensure that all coaches are aware of the specific rules and regulations of the National Championships. Because of the large number of coaches who participate in the National Championships, USA Taekwondo is unable to hold one meeting for all of the coaches. This series of webinars allows USA Taekwondo to ensure that each coach has been informed of the rules and regulations of the tournament, and gives us a chance to communicate with these coaches in an efficient manner.

Do I need to register for both the Coaches Edge program and the National Championships separately?

Yes. Although the two events are related, they are considered separate events and have separate registration pages. Please register for both the Coaches Edge program and for your coach credential at the National Championships.
