BACA Certified Excellence Program BCEP™

The future of cheer and dance begins with better leadership.

The BACA Certified Excellence Program™ (BCEP) was created to establish a new standard for coaches, directors, and organizations committed to athlete safety, leadership development, and excellence in our sport. 


BCEP™ establishes professional standards for individuals responsible for developing athletes and managing youth sports programs.


This certification is designed to help coaches lead with confidence while ensuring athletes are trained in safe, healthy, and developmentally appropriate environments.

 

We are committed to developing leaders who not only understand the technical aspects of coaching, but who also understand the responsibility of shaping the next generation.


We are not simply training coaches.
We are building better leaders for the future of our sport.
