The Basics for Esports courses are available for free on “NASEF x Skillshot Academy” for aspiring and established esports coaches, educators and enthusiasts. IESF aims to use these courses to educate, mentor and guide the World Esports Family to achieve a united ecosystem for the proper development of sustainable gaming worldwide.

The courses will cover everything needed to build and grow a successful esports program, starting with Esports 101 and including modules on coaching, starting and managing a successful esports team, establishing a culture of good sportsmanship, planning a live esports competition, maximizing the potential of esports athletes. The courses conclude with levelling up an esports organization and capabilities as a coach.
