USA Swimming Position Statement for Concussion Management
Online Concussion Management Training:
Per ORC 3707.52 as enacted by Ohio HB 143 of the 129th General Assembly, Ohio Department of Health (ODH) is required to post free training programs that train coaches and referees in recognizing the signs and symptoms of concussions and head injuries.
The following free online trainings have been approved by the Ohio Department of Health for coaches and referees:
National Federation of State High School Associations Concussion in Sports
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Heads Up Concussion in Youth Sports On-Line Training Program
PLEASE NOTE: Both courses offer a “certificate of completion” upon successful passage. The NFHS course allows organizations to search for and track coaches who have completed the course while the CDC course does not.
