Admissions
Looking for a small, close-knit campus filled with incredible, hands-on learning opportunities? Our Admissions Office can help make Elmira College YOUR place.
Elmira College offers students interested in coaching athletics an opportunity to earn a coaching certificate.
The classes listed below meet the New York State Education Department requirements for receiving a coaching certificate, HEGIS 55061, and coach in the public schools. Once courses are complete, an application must be submitted to the state education department for approval. 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, Athletics Director, at (607) 735-1732 or rfaunce@elmira.edu.
