National Governing Bodies (NGBs) and sports governing organisations need a platform that manages the full lifecycle of coach and instructor licensing — from qualification delivery and assessment through to digital licence issuance, CPD tracking, expiry management and automated renewal workflows. Unlike generic LMS platforms, NGB-specific software must also handle multi-tier membership structures across national, regional and club levels, safeguarding compliance, and real-time visibility for national oversight teams.
