High Performance Women in Coaching Mentorship Program
With the support of Sport Canada funding and the federal government priority of gender equity in sport by 2035, the Coaching Association of Canada developed and added the High Performance Women in Coaching Mentorship Program to its existing Women in Coaching program in 2020. The High Performance Women in Coaching Mentorship Program provides support and development opportunities for high-performance women coaches during the 16-month program through three types of learning and development activities: One-on-one mentoring, formal learning, and informal learning.
Program Goal

Program Objectives
- Support the leadership development of selected mentee coaches
- Support mentors through a community of practice
