Q: Who should get certified? 

The Men’s Volleyball Head Coach Certification is for anyone who wants to establish credibility as a coach for men’s programs. It also serves as a valuable reference for parents who want to understand the game better, players making the transition to coaching, assistant coaches advancing to head coaching roles, athletic directors who want to educate their coaches, and avid enthusiasts who want in-depth insight about the men’s game.  

Q: Why should I get certified?  

While certification is not required for volleyball coaches, being certified provides you with immediate credibility. Your commitment to enhancing your knowledge so you can coach at a high level will positively impact how players, parents and your administration view your skills and expertise. The Men’s Volleyball Head Coach Certification is special because it will expose you to the philosophies and strategies used by two of today’s most successful elite coaches in the men’s game—something you won’t find anywhere else.  

You’ll discover how to plan practices based on the value of each skill. You’ll learn how to combine mental and physical aspects to enhance individual player performance. You’ll also find out how to use statistics and scouting to develop a winning game plan. Once you complete your training, we’ll give you a badge and certificate as proof of your advanced understanding of the men’s game. It’s just the tool you need to launch your program and career to a higher level.  

Q: I’m the coach of a women’s volleyball program. Is this course applicable to the women’s game?  

Absolutely! This first-of-its-kind program offers several innovative approaches to training, evaluating skills and system development that apply to both the men’s and women’s games. It also addresses the development of the mental game, which is a key component at the elite level. The lessons may even spur you to take a second look at current methods and inspire you to adopt several of the creative concepts presented. No matter what, we’re confident you’ll find this program to be a useful tool in the development of your coaching skills and, ultimately, the performance of your team—regardless of gender.

Q: How long will it take me to get through the course?  

You lead a busy life. That’s why we designed this course to be consumed in chunks or all at once. The program is self-paced, so you work on it when it’s convenient for you.

Important note: To receive your certification, you must complete the course within six months of enrollment. 

Q: Do I have lifetime access to the content?  

Yes! Once you enroll, you’ll be able to view the course as many times as you like. You’ll also have access to all future updates and any bonus materials we may add later. Just remember that you must complete the course within six months from your date of enrollment. You’ll still have access to the content if you miss the deadline, but you won’t be able to receive the certification. 

Q: Where can I use my certification? 

Once you complete the course, you’ll receive a badge to display your newly earned credentials. Feel free to use this on your website, LinkedIn profile, email signature, and any other marketing channels. You’ll also get a digital certificate to print, frame and display in your gym, home or office.  

Q: Will I be able to view the videos in any order? 

With the Men’s Head Coach Certification, each lesson builds on the previous one. The first time you go through it, you’ll need to watch the videos in order. After you finish the course, you’ll be able to go back and view any video you like in any order. 

Q: What happens if I fail a quiz?

Don’t worry if you don’t do well on a quiz; it won’t go on your permanent record. Just retake it as many times as you need to. The quizzes are designed to test your knowledge, not prevent you from earning your certification.
