Athlete Assessments Online Behavioral Profiles

Need help to understand and bring out the best in your coaches, athletes and sports professionals?
Would having a proven tool, used by champions, help you too?

Athlete Assessments behavioral profiles are all about understanding coaches, athletes and teams. The AthleteDISC, CoachDISC and ManagerDISC profiles use proven profiling techniques, based on decades of behavioral research and are specifically for sport. After completing your online questionnaire, which takes just 12 minutes, you receive an in depth 44-page personalized report.  It analyzes your personal style, strengths and limitations and gives you tools and strategies you can start using straight away.

“Athlete Assessments provide our NCAA Women Coaches Academy participants with the CoachDISC profile and the feedback we receive is that it is GREAT information for them to have about themselves as coaches.  Our coaches have benefited from this program and find the Athlete Assessments staff very easy to work with.” Celia Slater, Executive Director, NCAA Women Coaches Academy

“Terrific! Fantastic! Never experienced before... to learn more about me as an athlete, and how to train more effective.” Dean Mercer, Iron Man Champion (and Surf Sports Legend)
