Each applicant must have completed the Athletics Ireland Level 1 Coach Education course and have a minimum of 1 years coaching experience. Places will be limited in each event group to keep the quality of delivery high. Coaches will have three full weekends to complete as follows:
- Weekend 1 Generic modules for all event groups

Coaches must choose one event group from either Jumps, Throws, Sprints or Endurance/Walks and specify this on the online entry form. There will be a written assessment on the final day of the course as well as continuous assessment throughout each weekend.
Level 2 is far more comprehensive than Level 1. Coaches wishing to gain maximum benefit will have a basic knowledge of coaching principles.
