Here
is what previous Interns have said about the program:
“The opportunity to work with real members and help them
achieve
goals is an
overwhelmingly rewarding experience. (That’s why we all want
to
be coaches in
the first place!) In addition to the "learning by doing" structure,
the program encourages (and requires) several forms of continuing
education to
broaden our knowledge of the many aspects of coaching. Additionally,
since the
Senior, Pro and Premier CTS Coaches work with athletes at the highest
levels in
many different sports, they serve as a tremendous resource for
developing
coaches. The wealth of knowledge from the higher level coaches is
easily
accessible and not only helps ensure we have the right answers, but
also
provides another great learning/mentoring opportunity.”
“The
CTS Internship program is a highly interactive and multifaceted
position which
incorporates excellent continuing education with hands-on and
Internet-based
coaching application.”
