This training program focuses on providing professionals with the knowledge required to select the most appropriate assessment strategies for athletes within specific contexts. It also plays a key role in designing comprehensive screening batteries, applicable both to performance analysis and to the monitoring and control of injury risk factors identified in different situations.
The course content is organized into four conceptual axes:
The first conceptual axis introduces the importance of conducting assessments with a clear and specific objective, emphasizing data-driven decision-making and the relevance of assessments across various professional settings.
The second axis examines the concepts of internal and external load, focusing on the implementation of tools to quantify training and rehabilitation loads.
After completing these first two axes, attention shifts to analyzing the metrics derived from various assessment tools, as well as exploring the development of customized tools for specific contexts.
The fourth conceptual axis addresses, from a methodological perspective, how to analyze athletic performance and injury risk factors. Like the third axis, it adopts a theoretical–practical approach, focusing on different assessment methods and tools to evaluate athletic performance based on physical qualities and sport-specific skills, as well as to identify individual injury risk profiles.
1. Contextualization of Player Assessment
2. How to Establish Internal and External Load
3. Parameters to Analyze According to Needs and Sporting Context
4. Performance and Injury Risk Factor Analysis
