The Comparison of the Coaching Education Systems Between Countries: Belgium, Germany, Estonia, France, Finland, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Türkiye and United Kingdom
Abstract
The basis of the coach education system in a country depends on the quality of the education. The competencies and employment opportunities for coaches achieved through education programmes also contribute to the social and human capital of countries. The aim of this research is to examine the existing coaching education systems in Türkiye and some European countries by comparing them in terms of the criteria determined in management and dimensions of education. In the research, the comparative approach was used to reveal the qualitative similarities and differences. The data in this study were acquired through the data collection tool, which was designated by the researchers Gök and Aslan (2019). The research sample consists of Türkiye, Germany, Belgium, United Kingdom, Estonia, France, Finland, Spain, Switzerland, Italy and Portugal which have different developmental characteristics in the field of international sports. The results obtained in this study reveal that that coaching education system and structures in these countries were not similar in terms of the criteria indicated on the data tool and accordingly there are some differences with regards to practices regarding the authorized institutions for organizing the coaching education courses; conditions of participation, model, curriculum and duration of courses; coaching levels; assignments of instructors to courses; entitlement to obtain certificate/diploma; supervision of courses; employment of coaches and recognition/diploma equivalency of certificate run in coaching education system. The reason is that there are various existing regulations for the specific structure of the sport and the branch of sport in each country as well as different practices depending on the international sports and also the advisory international and European coaching qualification framework.
