Concussions can occur while participating in any sport or recreational activity. It’s important for teachers, coaches, parents and participants to be aware of the signs, symptoms, and what to do if a suspected concussion occurs. 

Backed by extensive concussion research and aligned with the Canadian Guideline on Concussion in Sport, the NCCP Making Head Way in Sport eLearning module integrates the latest concussion research, empowering coaches, parents and participants with essential knowledge and skills to prioritize participant safety. 


In this module coaches will learn:
  • Prevention Strategies: Gain insights into effective steps that can be taken to prevent concussions, fostering a proactive approach to safety within any sport environment.
  • Recognition of Signs and Symptoms: Enhance your ability to recognize signs and symptoms of concussions swiftly and accurately, to ensure timely intervention.
  • Actionable Steps: Learn how to take immediate and effective action when a concussion is suspected.
  • Safe Return-to-Sport Strategies: Understand how to implement strategies for a safe return to sport, emphasizing the importance of a carefully managed post-concussion recovery process.
