CanPowerSkate Coach Reminder (NCCP)

The CanPowerSkate pathway follows the same structure as other Skate Canada NCCP pathways. With In-training, Trained, and Certified steps, coaches are supported in both program delivery and coach development. All coach achievements in CanPowerSkate will be recorded and tracked in the Locker.

As Skate Canada strategically plans for the next quadrennial, coaches delivering the CanPowerSkate program beyond September 1, 2022, must have a status in the NCCP CanPowerSkate pathway or challenge the NCCP CanPowerSkate evaluation for equivalency.
