The British Rowing Qualification Review

Following extensive consultation, British Rowing has committed to a groundbreaking re-invention of coaching qualifications that are accessible, affordable, and relevant across all disciplines of the sport.

Coaches will be able to choose the right training or qualification that aligns to their role, and will no longer complete qualification at a ‘level’.
