The Knowledge Paper Assessment for Quick Coach Practitioner Certificate is an open book self paced assessment. You have 12 months to complete this assessment. Extensions and Late Submissions are available on application from Student Support at Quick Coach.

Each section is marked independently. You must be assessed as competent in all 6 sections in order to be deemed competent overall.

Papers are forwarded to the Assessor on the 1st of each month therefore you need to ensure your paper is received at Quick Coach Head Office by the 30 th of the month. All assessments must be mailed and complete at time of submission. Assesments cannot be emailed. Assessments are marked within 30 days and you will be notified of your results by email.

Your enrolment entitles you to two attempts at the knowledge paper (within the 12 month enrolment period). Where you are deemed ‘not yet competent’ in any or all of the sections, you will be provided with feedback from the assessor. You will only be asked to repeat the sections for which you have not yet achieved competency.

In addition to this knowledge paper you will also be required to demonstrate your competency in a Skill Assessment (Recorded Coaching Session). You can simply record a coaching session yourself and send it in with your Knowledge Paper. We will accept CD and USB recording of your Skill Assessment.
