Professional coaching by UEFA A and B licensed coaches
Emphasis on progressing players into the Reserve and First team squad.
Education

Coaching Qualifications
All Learning Academy players will receive daily training, including individual and team coaching from highly qualified FA coaches affiliated to West Ham United. Players will receive guidance on their football fitness, nutritional advice and a regular appraisal to monitor each player’s development both on and off the pitch. Players will have the opportunity to represent the Club through the Learning Academy side.
Over the two-year duration of the course, players will study a variety of nationally recognised qualifications across sport, coaching and fitness. Players will study the BTEC Diploma in Sport, delivered at Level 2 and 3 standards (A-Level equivalent), FA Coaching Qualifications together with core skills in Maths and English.
