\nIncorporate strategies to engage your audience and manage a group.\n\n
Throughout the course, participants will have the opportunity to watch and analyze teaching progressions in a group setting. Upon completion of the course, participants will have the option to download a Teaching Movement Progression Library PDF for reference and future study. This can be used for scaling athletes, correcting movement patterns, and observing logistical considerations for managing the teaching process in a group class setting.
\n
Upon successful completion of the course, participants will receive a certificate of completion. A Certified CrossFit Trainer will receive 2 CEUs toward maintaining the CCFT (CF-L3) credential. The certificate will be available for download at the bottom of this page.
\n
This course can be completed in multiple sessions. However, it is recommended that you complete a full module before exiting the course, as work on partially completed modules will not be saved.
