About Active Learning 

In partnership with Merseyside Sports Foundation, MSP has been supporting people in the sport and physical activity sector to access the training they need for over two decades.

The right training for you

From meeting minimum standards to broadening your horizons through Continuing Professional Development  (CPD), we can help you, whether you are a coach, volunteer, club, workplace or community organisation.

Everyone has different motivations for training and you may find one style of learning suits your needs better than another. So we offer a range of different courses and events throughout the year: from formal training, leading to certification; through to informal training in the form of knowledge sharing, networking, talks and workshops.

We’ll also help to signpost you to other reputable organisations wherever we can if we don’t offer the training you’re looking for.
