If all goes well, they will be arranged to attend a coaching training course of the Football Association for about 10 days. The training content is divided into two parts: theory and practice. After the training, they will be assessed and passed the D-level coach certificate issued by the Football Association.
The D-level coach certificate has the qualification of obtaining a C-level coach for one year, and the obtaining method is the same as that of a D-level coach.
After two years of C-level coaching certificate, you are qualified to be a B-level coach. At this time, you can't be admitted to the local football association. You need to go to China Football Association for training and assessment. A-level coaches have the same qualifications as B-level coaches.
Judging from the reality of football coach training and assessment, D-level and C-level coaches are youth coaches, and they can't coach professional teams. They mainly teach children basic football skills and knowledge as grass-roots coaches. Although a coach does not have to have a high technical foundation like a professional player, as a coach, especially a grass-roots coach, he must have solid basic skills and correct theoretical knowledge. Class B and Class A are already professional football coaches.
