ICC Foundation Certificate
The first step for aspiring coaches is to undertake the ICC Foundation Certificate – a course which equips participants with the knowledge necessary to support qualified coaches deliver fun-first experiences for new and beginner participants.

The course doesn’t require any prior knowledge of the game, and introduces learners to the basic fundamentals of cricket, and what it takes to facilitate cricket sessions.

The ICC Foundation Certificate is entirely self-paced, meaning it can be done as fast or as slow as the learner wants, and is delivered entirely online.

You can access the Foundation course using this link and let us know when you get your certificate! www.edapp.com/icc/

Beyond that stage are the in-person ICC Level 1 and Level 2 courses.
