Official Programs
External Sport Credentials are elective credits and do not replace courses such as Physical Health and Education 10.
Once credited for a particular level of the Coach category, students cannot receive additional credits for duplicate participation.

Getting Credit
Student coaches can contact viaSport to confirm participation in an approved program and to request a verification letter.
viaSport can provide this verification letter for Coach Levels 1-3. Students are responsible for submitting verification letters to their school counsellor.
Students who earn External Sport Credentials before entering grade 10 should file and present the documentation upon starting Grade 10.
