The Quest for Gold Enhanced Coaching Program recognizes coaches have out-of-pocket expenses for many things.  Coaches who wish to continue their training and education, or increase their knowledge and certification, will benefit from this bursary program.

The Quest for Gold program provides an education bursary for higher levels of professional development and training.  Up to 70% of course registration fees will be reimbursed for Ontario resident coaches who pass and complete coursework.

Bursaries can be applied in Q4G eligible sports* that have a coaching course/workshop in any of the following:

• NCCP Competition: Introduction Sport-Specific
• NCCP Level 3 Technical (Sport-Specific)
• NCCP Competition: Development Multi-sport & Sport-Specific

To go directly to the bursary application for NCCP Comp-Intro, Level 3 or Comp-Dev, click here.

A travel subsidy up to a maximum of $200 is available for coaches travelling more than 100km each way to attend NCCP training. Apply for a travel subsidy by using the Travel Subsidy Form.

The total allocation for Coach Bursaries for April 1 2010 to March 31 2011 is $100,000. Your course must fall between these dates to be considered for funding.
