Preparing
Preparing someone to coach can take many forms. The Coaching Academy accomplishes this by identifying multiple avenues available through Texas A&M. It works with individuals that understand the tremendous positive influence associate with coaching.
Supporting
The Coaching Academy fulfills the second tier of its mission to “support coaches”. It assists in the provision of opportunities related to employment. The Academy has initiated and continues to develop relationships with the public and private sector to provide networking and job employment opportunities.
Promoting
In conjunction with the Huffines Institute, the Coaching Academy works to “promote coaches”. It does so by educating the public on the positive influence coaches have in society and by promoting and organizing on and off campus-related programming through seminars, podcasts, radio-broadcasting, and presentations.
