To teach Skate Canada programs coaches must be certified, they must also be members of Skate Canada and hold a valid first aid certificate.

Skate Canada views a coach as being anyone who is a fully certified NCCP Trained CanSkate Professional Coach or higher, is a Coaching Member of Skate Canada and holds a valid First Aid certificate. Skate Canada Professional Coaches must fulfill these qualifications before being allowed to coach in a Skate Canada club or sanctioned skating school. This ensures a standardized approach to quality instruction in Skate Canada-Central Ontario programs.
     The National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) is a three-part program that provides education for coaches. It addresses various aspects of coaching through Theory, Technical and Practical components. Topics covered in the Theory component, for example, include Skill Analysis, Sport Safety, Growth and Development, while in the Technical component, Music and Choreography, Basic Movement, and Business Management are a sample of the topics addressed.
