Competence needs evidence.

A player or team needs report, match-week plan, specialist project and oral defence.

Assessment will consider plans, coaching practice and case explanations, followed by feedback. Detailed criteria, reassessment and appeal procedures will be provided before enrolment. Course completion does not guarantee passing; passing does not automatically grant brand coaching authorisation.

Common questions

Can I participate without a fitness-training background?

You can express interest in L1. Consultation will explore your teaching experience and learning needs; formal entry conditions will be confirmed before enrolment. L2 and Football Specialist have additional competence and practice requirements.

Can football coaching experience give me direct entry to L2?

Not automatically. L2 requires L1 or an equivalent competence review, plus real coaching records. Existing certificates do not automatically convert to a KINTREON level.

How do L1 and L2 differ?

L1 focuses on safe foundational fitness sessions. L2 focuses on needs analysis, testing, programming, monitoring and review. Football Specialist applies these capabilities in football; it is not L3.

Is this equivalent to NSCA-CPT or CSCS?

No. L1 is not NSCA-CPT and L2 is not CSCS. No related authorisation, credit or recognition partnership has been confirmed.

Is this a national professional or internationally recognised qualification?

No. KINTREON is developing and piloting its own framework. Planned certificates record assessment within this framework; they do not represent a national professional qualification or confirmed international recognition.

Is the entire learning commitment classroom teaching?

No. Totals combine online learning, in-person practice, supervised practice and assignments and assessment. They are not one-to-one service hours or international credits. Completion windows are suggestions, not guarantees.

Does completion guarantee clients or employment?

No. Courses focus on coaching competence and evidence of learning, with no promise of employment, clients or improved performance. Brand coaching authorisation is not automatic.

Can I pay now? When does the course start?

We are currently discussing pilot interest only. No payments are accepted, admission is not automatic and dates are not guaranteed. Schedule, venue and entry conditions will be confirmed separately.

What services are planned within the fee?

Plans include relevant materials, scheduled practice support, the first formal assessment and a certificate after passing. The actual scope, reassessment and cancellation terms will be provided before enrolment. Payment does not grant a certificate.
