Level 1 is understanding physical literacy. Level 2 is putting it into practice.

Physical Literacy Leader – Level 1 covers the foundations — what physical literacy is, social-emotional learning, and belonging. Level 2 focuses on designing and delivering quality programs — inclusive environments, cultural awareness, and programming that keeps participants engaged.

Both levels are available on Campus in English and French.
