  • 6. Is there any further specific training you see yourself requiring to meet the needs of this position?

      How to Answer

      All coaching positions required generally require First Aid and CPR, so if you don't have that will be a training that you'll need prior to coaching. This certification expires every two years, so it important to keep it up to date- sometimes schools will train you to get this done.

      Look into the requirements that the school has for coaching and if there is something you need knowledge that during the interview- this will show the interviewer you are educated with their requirements and are also on top of your trainings. Also, if there is any future training that you would like to attend this would be a great time to mention it.

      "I notice CPR and First Aid are required. Although I am currently certified, halfway through the season I will need to recertify. Recertifying isn't an issue, but I wanted you to be aware."
