When will I receive my access data?
You will receive the access data for the "Edubreak" learning platform by e-mail on the first day of the course.
How do the online phases work? Are there fixed dates when I have to be present?
In the online phases, you work on various tasks before, between and after the face-to-face phases. These each have deadlines, but can be completed flexibly within this period. There are generally no fixed online deadlines with compulsory attendance.
Can I work on the online assignments via the Edubreak app?
We recommend editing via the browser, as the app currently only works to a limited extent and does not display all tasks and content in full. All functions are reliably available to you via the browser.
I am unable to attend the attendance phase, what do I have to do?
Participation in all attendance phases is mandatory. If you are unable to attend due to illness, please inform us immediately by sending an email to qualifizierung@spam.berlinerfv.de and submit a doctor's certificate or sick note. This will enable us to arrange a catch-up date together.
The attendance phase overlaps with my training or my game, what now?
Please plan your participation well in advance and coordinate with your club in good time so that you can be represented during the attendance phases. Unfortunately, it is not possible to leave early or skip individual dates.
Is proof of fitness for sport mandatory?
Yes, in order to participate in the DFB-Basis-Coach we require proof of fitness for sport. This certifies that from a medical point of view there are no objections to participating in the practical coach training of the Berliner Fußball-Verband e. V. and working as a soccer coach in the club.
I am not an active member of a club, can I still take part in the DFB Basic Coach program?
Yes, active membership is not mandatory for participation, passive membership is also sufficient. However, please make sure that you have access to a team during the course with which you can work on the final task (filming training session).
Do I need to bring sports gear for the attendance phase?
Yes, please bring both sportswear and writing utensils to the attendance phases. If you are unable to actively participate for health reasons, we require a medical certificate in advance.
Is there a catering service during the attendance phases?
Lunch is included in the price for courses at the Wannsee Sports School. No meals are usually provided at decentralized locations. Should there be an offer there, we will inform you in good time.
There is no traditional final examination. You will be given tasks for the individual sections of the course, which you can use to demonstrate your skills. The so-called intermediate performance is one of the more extensive tasks. Here you document the preparation, execution and follow-up of your training at your home club by means of video recording. It must be completed in the time between the two attendance days, so you should start planning early.
How and when do I receive my certificate?
As soon as all parts of the course have been successfully completed and we have received the required documents, your certificate will be sent to you by e-mail.
Once you have completed the DFB Basic Coach course, you have the opportunity to complete the C license within three years by completing a profile course. If no profile course is completed within three years, the recognition expires and the DFB Basic Coach must be completed again in order to continue on the path to the C license.
We would like to have a DFB Basic Coach at our club, is that possible?
Sure, of course! We are delighted that you are interested in hosting a DFB Basic Coach in your home club. Simply fill out the form to apply as a decentralized location after consulting with your club.
