When do I receive my certification from the course?

Upon completion of the course, a check for understanding will be issued. Candidates will have seven days from the date of issue to complete and return this to be marked by the assessor. Failure to do so could result in your qualification not being awarded, and you will need to pay and retake the full online session.

Upon completion of the course, and once the checking for understanding has been marked, if successful, you will retain your qualification as an England Boxing Level 1 Assistant Coach for another three years and your qualification will be updated on The Locker as and when we receive the results from the Coach Educator Assessor.

Upon completion of the course, and once the checking for understanding has been marked, if unsuccessful, you will be given the opportunity to retake the checking for understanding, once free of charge. You will again have seven days to complete and return this. If unsuccessful a second time, you will need to pay for and attend the course again.
