FAQs

A: Absolutely. The FA runs events all over the country and for all levels. To explore events please visit our national CPD events page here.

A: We would be happy to discuss holding an event at your club. Please email development@worcestershirefa.com for more information.

If you're an FA Level 1 or 2 learner, continuous professional development hours are optional and so there is no longer a requirement for licensing.

If you're a UEFA qualified coach, however, you are required to complete 15 hours of CPD every three years to maintain your licence, which The FA recommends is best achieved by completing 5 hours per season.
