New Personal Performance Award Provider Refresher eLearning: Roles and Responsibilities

British Canoeing Awarding Body is delighted to launch the Personal Performance Award Provider Refresher eLearning, focusing on roles and responsibilities. 

This eLearning is aimed at existing PPA Providers to ensure continual development, standardisation and delivery of our Educational Philosophy. This educational package covers the responsibilities of a PPA Provider, including risk management, with a focus on lone working, safeguarding requirements and regulatory requirements. 

 

We revisit our educational philosophy which has underpinned our approach to learning and development of paddlers and how the standard of performance is assessed.

The final section explores how the Personal Performance Awards can be delivered, raising the awareness of the diversity of the awards and the agility of how these could be delivered.


The eLearning takes around 30 minutes to complete and will count as 5 CPD points. Existing PPA Providers have the choice to complete this eLearning package or the existing PPA Provider Refresher, focused on Delivery and Engagement.

Every Instructor, Coach, Leader, Raft Guide and Bell Boat Helm can deliver some of the Personal Performance Awards. You will need to complete PPA Provider eLearning which provides 10 CPD points and access to a range of logos to use for your marketing and promotion.

The #ShePaddles programme will be an empowering and transformative experience for female paddlers designed to enhance leadership skills, resilience, and ability to perform under pressure. Through a series of in-person and online sessions with leading performance consultants Jo Hopkins and Eliza Downey, you'll explore your leadership style, understand the impact of pressure on performance, and learn from various fields such as sport, the military, and the arts to drive individual and team performance. Additionally, hands-on paddling sessions led by Effie Ellis-O'Neill, an experienced Coach and Tutor of BCAB Qualifications, will help you develop and refine your skills on the water and guide you in your goal setting whilst building a community of female paddlers.
