The coaching minor is available to all students at SUNY Brockport. This concentration enables students to meet and exceed the minimal requirements to become certified to coach a sport in New York public schools. The concentration contains both traditional classroom experiences and a culminating internship experience.
The regulations of the Commissioner of Education of the New York State Department of Education require individuals who coach an interscholastic athletic team to complete an approved program for coaches prior to or within the first three years of their employment. (A valid First Aid Certificate as well as a valid CPR Certificate are required for initial employment.)
The SUNY Brockport coaching concentration fulfills this requirement and also provides greater depth in preparation for prospective coaches in schools, sports clubs, community programs, colleges, or other athletic organizations.
