General Orientation Session

Completing the Special Olympics General Orientation session is the required first step to becoming a coach for Special Olympics Kansas.  It includes a look at the history and progression of SOKS, our constituency, the sport and training aspects of SOKS, challenges of the organization, and the direction we are headed with help from volunteers statewide such as yourself.

Anyone is welcome to visit and complete the session; however, it is a mandatory part of coaches education to attend a face-to-face general orientation or complete the quiz for credit for this online version.
