This qualification is designed to prepare learners for deployment as independent coaches of multi-skills and physical activity and will introduce learners to the principles of coaching fundamental movement skills and sport specific skills. The concluding assessment will evaluate the planning, delivery and review of a series of linked and progressive coaching sessions. The qualification is recognised as the industry standard Level 2 Multi-Skills coaching qualification, alongside the Level 2 Certificate in Coaching Multi-Skills Development in Sport, which is a larger coaching qualification.

The award attracts existing coaches, teachers, teaching assistants and volunteers in sport.

The qualification is designed for those who wish to deliver multi-skills as an independent coach from the age of 18 (the learner would require support prior to turning 18) and wish to take responsibility for the ongoing development of participants at a variety of ages in this area.
