National Coaches Week
September 14-20, 2026, is National Coaches Week! It is a time to celebrate the positive impact coaches have on athletes and communities across Canada.
To celebrate National Coaches Week and to show appreciation for coaches:
- SPAR is offering a 50% discount on NCCP Multi-Sport Online Modules for Alberta coaches throughout September.
- Look for FREE NCCP eLearning Modules on the Locker during National Coaches Week. Each day between September 14-18, a different eLearning module will be offered to coaches for free!
- Coaches can view the available courses below with registration for discounted September modules opening on August 1, 2026.
- Coaches are encouraged to register early as each module has limited availability and will sell out fast.
