A key factor in the success of an athletic program is effective management. For USSA and its clubs, sports management includes management of relationships with athletes and parents, communication, risk management, leadership, fundraising and sponsorship, and event management.
The USSA coaches certification program also requires two course credits in sports science, all of which have been developed by the U.S. Ski Team and U.S. Snowboarding physiologists. These courses cover the following subjects:
These course were created in conjunction with the Elite Performance Series CD-ROM set.

For those coaches who have completed an on-snow clinic that need to complete their on-line exam, you would have received an email from the USSA Sport Education office with directions to access your exam on the ePath learning site using your ePath login. Email the Education office if you no longer have your log-in information. If it has been more than one year since your on-snow clinic, you can purchase the on-line exams at the USSA Education Shop, and will receive a link to the exam after your purchase.
