The Coaching Journey

This week, The Coaching Journey Podcast is excited to welcome Ian Barker back on the show! Ian is the Director of Coaching Education with United Soccer Coaches. We sat down to talk about coaching education and the role Ian sees United Soccer Coaches playing in a coach's professional development. We talk about maintaining standards amongst instructors as the game continues to develop rapidly, and look at why some organizations seem to want to create a manufactured ceiling for many coaches on their educational pathway.
