Accreditation Process

ACCREDITATION & RE-ACCREDIATION PROCESS

The AFL is partnering with the AFL Coaches Association and its Tackle Your Feelings program to provide all coaches with access to a mandatory Mental Health Awareness module. This module will be made part of the renewal process, and will also be added to the Foundation course, meaning that next year ALL coaches will complete an online module on Mental Health Awareness as part of their accreditation and registration.
