One path, five levels.

From the foundation to train-the-trainer. As a coach you build complete FBC competence, level by level, each one certified and building on the last. You start at the foundation and can grow until you educate coaches yourself.

The overview

The five modules.

Hover over a module to see what you learn at that level. Below you will find the full path in detail.

The path

Five levels, one continuous line.

The core stays the same at every level: the fixed processing chain, the 3-2-1 touch scale, two-footedness and control before speed. What changes is the context in which you apply it.

FBC 3
Foundation Licence

The foundation

You learn to understand, apply and safeguard the core FBC methodology. You build a training session from the ball as a source of information, with a fixed structure that returns in every session. The starting point for everything that follows: control before speed, in calm and space.

FBC 2
Advanced

Under pressure & in context

You take that same foundation under pressure and into game context: resistance, an opponent and choices within time. You learn to periodise across sessions and the season, coach with fixed commands and link the individual action to the team task and the unit.

FBC 1
Specialisation

Game intelligence & individual plans

You shift from the group to the individual player and his position. You learn to read the game, perceive and objectify choices with video analysis, and draw up a measurable development plan per player that you monitor, without letting go of the FBC core.

PRO
Innovation

Science & technology

You add a measurement and steering layer. You make the football brain measurable, steer behaviour under pressure with performance psychology and use sensors, apps and AR responsibly. The measurement supports the coach's eye, it never replaces it.

Master
Instructor

Train-the-trainer

You make the step from coach to educator. You learn to develop other coaches, secure the method across an entire line or academy and make quality transferable and scalable, without the identity fading.

Start here · FBC 3

The foundation in five chapters.

Every FBC coach starts at FBC 3. Hover over a chapter to see what you learn there. Five content chapters, step by step, completed with the final exam.

The learning structure

Structure of a chapter.

Every content chapter follows the same fixed structure of three lessons. That way you build understanding before it is tested.

1

Lesson 1 · Theory

The methodology per component: introduction, preparation, approach, purpose and function, reflection and consolidation. With a short box that sums up what to remember.

2

Lesson 2 · Practice

Worked practice videos that show the theory on the pitch: organisation, build-up, coaching and quality control, demonstrated step by step.

3

Lesson 3 · Quiz

Three scenario questions from three perspectives: the player, the coach and the organisation. With instant, instructive feedback per answer.

Certification

Demonstrably competent.

FBC does not certify attendance, but competence. You complete each level with an exam, a practical assignment and a reflection, and receive a certificate that can be verified with a unique code.

A final exam on the whole methodology

The exam measures whether you understand and can apply the methodology, not whether you know exercises by heart.

Practical assignment & reflection

You apply the methodology in your own training and show through a structured reflection that you work consciously.

Verifiable certificate

Pass and receive your digital FBC certificate with a unique, verifiable code.
