► In addition before you can be certified at Level 2 you must supply the Coaching Centre Administrator with evidence of the following:

First Aid is not part of the Level 2 course itself, but the link above has information to help you source training which will meet the qualification criteria if you don’t already hold a suitable current certificate. You should also receive a copy of this information with your confirmation of booking and again with your pre-course resources mailing.

Please note:

DBS checking is NOT a requirement for taking or passing a coaching qualification, but in order to take up your free first year of coach licensing you’ll need to undertake the appropriate category of Enhanced DBS check, which Angling Trust will process for you.  Angling Trust is also required to conduct an identity check before you take part in your selected course.  There will be information about this between the issuing of your booking confirmation and the booking deadline for this event.

You don’t need membership of Angling Trust in order to undertake a coaching qualification.  In fact, after certification you’re eligible to take up the first year of Licensed Coach membership without incurring the usual fee.  Coach membership also provides Professional Indemnity insurance specifically for your coaching activities, which Individual (non-coach) membership doesn’t.

Using this booking facility

To comply with Data Protection requirements and ensure provision of accurate details, you are advised that completing the online application should be done by the person who will be undertaking the coaching course.  Changes to DBS regulations mean we must now supply course tutors with an image taken from your digital Right to Work check, which must be completed prior to the day of your course to confirm your identity as the person taking up the course place. We are required to do this as part of the Right to Work process and it is called an ‘Imposter Check’. We must also record that this check has been completed.

Applicants with a confirmed 50% Angling Improvement Fund 50% bursary should read the guidance PDF Booking with a 50% bursary discount code 2024.
