The manuals, DVDs, Evaluation Workbook, designated tasks and individual module question banks represent the “Information Gathering” step and the “Performing” step. Successful completion of all abovementioned steps over the two year apprentice timeline will result in the apprentice being designated as a Community-Development Trained Coach in the NCCP database. The purpose of the Apprentice Evaluation Workbook, tasks and question banks within the Community Development Coach Stream is not to determine an apprentice’s grade, but to create awareness for the mentor as to the apprentice’s coaching strengths and weaknesses so any necessary intervention can be administered. * It is expected that the apprentice will be offered the opportunity during the apprentice two- year process to plan out sufficient practices, although not necessarily as detailed as the example in the workbook. Each of these components will require a very concentrated effort to complete. All evaluation components and tasks must be completed and reviewed by the assigned team head coach on a regular basis throughout the apprenticeship period, then submitted to the association designated mentor coach for periodic reviews and any necessary intervention. Immediately following the apprentice training period the evaluation components will be marked, documented and forwarded to the appropriate authority for action. NOTE: APPRENTICE COACHES WHO SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE THE APPRENTICE EVALUATION WORKBOOK, THE TASKS AND MODULE QUESTION BANKS WILL BE “TRAINED.” Apprentice Coach Development Lacrosse Evaluation Workbook MODULE OBJECTIVES After reviewing the manual, list one important objective from each module you would like to accomplish.
