MED is an in class course (required for District approval= trained). An online evaluation after the in class course can be taken if your coach wants to be 'certified" which means they want to proceed with C License.
The recreational matrix also indicates that all coaches have the MED and RIS along with the age appropriate coach certificate.

C License Information
The C License is for players aged 11-13, this means a coach can take either Learn to Train or Soccer for Life for access.
If they have a C License, this is training at a higher level for both learn to train and soccer for life.
Therefore if a coach has a C License, they will have either a soccer for life or learn to train to access the course in the first place and do not need to complete both and the C License provides education in more detail for both of these stages of development.
As C License content covers learn to train and soccer for life, it does not cover fundamentals. Therefore any coach coaching U6-U9 Boys or U6-U8 will need to take fundamentals.
Kind Regards,
