Physical Education: Athletic Coaching Certificate

The below classes meet the New York State Education Department requirements to receive a coaching certificate, HEGIS 55061 and coach in the public schools. Once courses are complete, an application process to the state education department must take place. The certificate candidate is not qualified to teach physical education. For example, a person with certification as an English Teacher, by completing the requirements for this certification, could coach in the public schools.

Students interested in seeking coaching certification should contact Ms. Rhonda Faunce, Head Volleyball and Softball Coach and Director of Physical Education, Emerson Hall, (607) 735-1732.
