Three practical components, each needing a different combination of skills. Get support and feedback for clarity!
Let us help you understand what assessors are looking for
You cant just think you know things, you need to be confident that you can demonstrate you know things!
Let us help you recognise exactly where YOU need to spend your time
Less than 5% of people pass all 4 components first time. Passing 3/4 is achieved by around just 25%!
Let us help you towards that top 5% group
The UKSCA Accreditation is one of the most sought after accreditations in the profession. It is recognised in the UK, the USA, Australia and all accross europe.
It is the only S&C accreditation process where you need to attend an assessment day and demonstrate your competence to a group of assessors who haven't previously seen your work and who haven't taught you.
They are simply asking themselves the question "do I think this person is sufficiently competent for the UKSCA to endorse them?"
Sounds simple right?
But there is no challenge like it!
Less than 5% of people pass all 4 components first time. Then only 25% of people pass 3/4 components.
It's nothing to be scared of! You just can't rock up and wing it...
But, the process is daunting, IF you are on your own.
At the moment you're probably apprehensive, a little concerned about the pass rate and just hoping you can make it through. Wouldn't you prefer to arrive on the day with confidence that you are fully prepared?
The most important thing is you find some support/help and are kept accountable to develop through the process!
Avoid the common outcome of having three or four components to re-sit because you said the wrong thing, missed key principles, and weren't seen as competent. You don't want to be unprepared or make silly mistakes, eventually wasting your own time and money.
Sports Performance Consultant and Educator
Rich is an ASCC and education professional with over 10 years experience in coaching and coach development
He runs the S&C for Bristol Flyers Basketball and has led 4 different degrees across the UK at both UG and PG level
He has seen 100's of case studies, weightlifting and PAS assessments over his past 10 years in education
He is also a former director of the UKSCA and led the review of the ASCC process in 2019-20
After working with developing coaches and helping them prepare for the accreditation process for years, there is one thing that has continued to be clear
Your access to content is not the barrier!
To optimally prepare for the assessment, you don't need more consumption. The reason people fail is more commonly from peoples self awareness, their application of information and their ability to answer questions on their thinking.
So this programme is NOT all about content.
This is NOT about us just teaching you new stuff. The stuff is already out there.
This is about YOU showing us what YOUR understanding is through tasks, challenges, questions and discussion. It's about the much needed support, feedback and accountability you need!
You'll get weekly group calls, coaching frameworks, video recordings and disscussion spaces to transform your confidence and clarity going into the process.
You'll get unlimited support for weightlifting coaching, case study preparation and PAS planning
You'll save time, save money, reduce stress and be able to push on with your career knowing you've met the internationally recognised standard with no faffing around
Rich's help completely clarified things for me. The process expectation, its rationale, and where I really needed to upskill all became more clear
- Aynsley Fry - Osteopath, ASCC, Business Owner
Rich supported me with everything from WL coaching to process understanding and generally supporting my confidence, forever grateful!
Jeff Turner - Football Coach and ASCC
Delighted to have passed 3 components of the accreditation on the 1st attempt. A big thanks to Rich for the brilliant content he produced. Just one compopnent to book in before ASCC.
- Stephen O'Hanrahan - Head of Athletic Development, CBS Monkstown
A fantastic resource for anyone looking to gain UKSCA Accreditation. Rich provides clarity on all the assessments, which has massively improved my confidence with my assessments a couple of months away. Would highly recommend!
James Pringle - Lead Academy Sport Scientist at Carlisle United Football Club
This was so useful in discussing the relevant topics in a informal but detailed manner with great examples of what is required to pass and what mistakes are generally seen. Would I recommend the course, 100%!
- Neil Withington - Owner of My Fitness Club and Personal Trainer
A fantastic resource for anyone looking to gain UKSCA Accreditation. Rich provides clarity on all the assessments, which has massively improved my confidence with my assessments a couple of months away. Would highly recommend!
James Pringle - Lead Academy Sport Scientist at Carlisle United Football Club
I cannot recommend the UKSCA accelerator enough. Rich has a wealth of experience which is evident throughout the course. Having attended the official workshops as well as this course, I can honestly say that I was provided with with far more valuable info & resources from Rich for a fraction of the price!
- Dan Laws - U11/12 Sport Scientist at Wolves
I successfully passed my case study at 1st attempt so far! The final changes to the presentation was based on feedback by Rich following a mock presentation. I highly recommend his support!

How does this fit with the UKSCA workshops?
The workshops are designed as education opportunities for those who need to learn the content. However, if you've already completed your BSc or MSc in S&C or even all the workshops, you still need some support, guidance and mentoring to enhance your chances of succeeding in the process. Afterall, having been taught the content doesn't guarentee your ability to use it or explain it in an assessment process
Can you support me 1 on 1?
There will be individual feedback, and an opportunity to get all of your questions answered. The programme will run as a group where you can also learn from what other candidates are doing and finding useful. 1 on 1 mock assessments can be organised throughout the process.
Who is this suitable for?
To make the most of the programme, you'll need to have the Accreditation day on your radar in the next 12-months. You should have some foundational education and we will help you optimise your preparation over time.
What kind of tasks will there be?
Tasks will involve sharing parts of your case study, designing progressions and regressions, working collaboratively to identify key principles, submitting weightlifting videos and producing small pieces of work. All designed to highlight your skills and form future discussion.
What if I can't attend the live sessions?
No need to worry, all sessions will be de-briefed and you'll be able to ask all questions via the online platform at any time. But your experience and learning will be optimised by your attendance.
Can you guarentee I'll pass the assessments?
No, on the day it is all about what you do, what you say and what confidence you give the assessor in your ability. We'll provide you the best possible preparation but only you can execute when its needed
What if I don't pass the assessment and need more help?
Don't worry, you can stay in the group for as long as you need and take advantage of the coaching and support.
