The YI remains the minimum license level required to coach in Wisconsin. Participants of Youth Module Certificate Courses are provided with an entire season of lesson plans and activities to take directly to the field. Registered candidates are given access to a self-study manual to be completed before attending a 90 minute in-person field session. Preregistration is required. Both courses are complimentary for WYSA members.
