The world has quickly become smaller. Through Zoom and other video conferencing applications, we can now meet each other in our living rooms. Rather than having to travel to PSA Seminars, Ratings Prep, and sit in lessons with a master coach, you can now do all of this in the comfort of your own home!
Your first stop in your journey is PSA TV. If you haven’t signed up for PSA TV yet, you need to do so right away. When I begin my ratings journey I traveled all over the country to attend seminars with World and Olympic coaches. On PSA TV, we bring all of this information right to you. Our library is chock-full of fantastic information to help you not only further your education but make you a better coach and in turn produce better athletes.
Next stop...is our Accelerated Coaching Partnership (formally known as the Apprentice Program). This program provides an opportunity for coaches to learn from master coaches within each discipline. It is a wonderful way to connect to a network of master coaches who are ready and willing to help people like you.
Take the next exit to...Ratings Prep. We are working to bring you a Virtual Ratings Prep event in the spring. This program is specifically designed to help candidates understand the ratings process and prepare for exam questions.
Take the next right turn to...all your old issues of PS Magazine. There are articles on technique and coaching tips from our top coaches. Past issues are available on the PSA website and on the ISSUU mobile app.
Take the next left turn to...print out the free study guide on our website and work through the questions based on all of the information you have compiled.
You have reached your destination...you are now ready to become a PSA rated coach! Keep an eye on the online calendar of events for future Virtual Rating Sites.
As always please reach out to me with any questions you may have. I am here to help!
