The Women in Coaching Canada Games Apprenticeship Program in Alberta is a partnership between Alberta Sport Connection, Canada Games Council (CGC), Coaching Association of Canada (CAC) and Provincial Sport Organizations.
This program provides the opportunity for each province and territory to send 2 female coaches to the Canada Games in apprenticeship roles. The belief is that the apprenticeship program is an essential part of the development of a coach. Furthermore, apprenticeship programs can be used as a means to build capacity in underrepresented populations in coaching, such as women and aboriginals.
The purpose of the Canada Games Apprenticeship Program is to provide women coaches with a practical and integrated major national multi-sport games experience. Selected coaches have direct involvement in preparation and competition and receive support from an identified mentor coach throughout the duration of the program.
