In terms of coach education, the role of the County FA has changed slightly over the last few years. We now have a greater focus on providing localised support to coaches throughout the season, most commonly referred to as "CPD". CPD stands for Continuous Professional Development and refers to a practical or online learning opportunity, such as workshop, FA Conference, online courses, and webinars. These are delivered outside of any formal qualification pathway.
We have a dedicated space on our Surrey FA website for coaches to access, which lists all upcoming development events that are available for coaches to book: https://www.surreyfa.com/coaches/ongoing-learning
For the latest webinars, conferences and events hosted by England Football Learning: https://learn.englandfootball.com/ongoing-learning
