Why UESCA?

Our Story

Our Mission

To elevate the standard of endurance sports coaching

Our Process

In an area such as endurance sports training where there is as much fiction as there are facts, we look to eliminate fiction by concentrating our efforts on the science behind training methodologies.

However, just because research deems a training practice to be ideal does not necessarily mean that it is practical. Our team ensures that science-based training methodologies are applicable in real world training environments.

Our Ethos

We believe that the proper coaching structure is based on a solid understanding of the body and how it works. This enables a coach to apply this knowledge to get the best results for their clients on an individual basis.

Results, application, science is the UESCA way

Our Values

More than an education company, we’re a customer service company! We understand that your experience from start to finish… and beyond, is critical to your comfort level as a coach.

We’re Accessible

Whether it be during your studies or after you become a certified coach, we’re always available to answer your questions and most importantly, in a timely manner!

Value

While our certifications are very comprehensive, it does not equate to being unaffordable.

No BS

Ok, we could have been a bit more subtle but you get the point! We don’t have multiple tiers of certifications, nor do we charge for maintaining your certification. We view these practices as little more than money grabs disguised as education opportunities.

Big Picture

As our mission statement alluded to, we’re in business to elevate the standard of endurance sports coaching and training. The way we see it, the more coaches we can certify, the more lives will be impacted through positive and productive coaching relationships.
