    Assessment criteria
    Assessment criteria - grade 1
    When the implementation type of the course is CONTACT, ONLINE or BLENDED it is required that the student is present during those teaching hours that are marked in the study schedule. If you are absent more than 25 %, your grade will be lowered by one. If you are absent more than 50 %, the course is failed.

    The student is able to:
    Demonstrate an understanding of the theoretical principles of evidence-based strength and conditioning science and its application to enhance sport performance.
    Demonstrates an ability to build short- and long-term plans.
    Assessment criteria - grade 3
    The student is able to:
    Examine the theoretical principles of evidence-based strength and conditioning science and its application to enhance sport performance in specific coaching context, relate the new knowledge to previous understanding.
    Construct short term conditioning plans and age/stage-appropriate S&C coaching curricula.
    Assessment criteria - grade 5
    The student is able to:
    Discuss and combine the theoretical principles of evidence-based strength and conditioning science and its application to enhance sport performance in specific coaching context.
    Relate the new knowledge to previous understanding and reconstruct future actions based on the new knowledge.
    Construct and analyze effective short conditioning plans and age/stage-appropriate S&C coaching curricula.
