BCU Level 3 Coach (Sea) Assessment


The BCU Level 3 Coach award aims to provide a minimum qualification for those wishing to be in charge of paddlesport activities for a club or school, supervising groups on ‘moderate’ water. The training and assessment courses are discipline specific – in this case for sea kayaking which includes coastal journeys on tidal waters. 

The purpose of the assessment course is to ensure that all candidates for the award have a sound understanding of both the environment in which they operate and paddlesports generally. Our aim is to create an assessment atmosphere whereby candidates can show their best in terms of kayaking abilities, knowledge and teaching skills.
