Our coaches are experienced crew members in various scopes. They’ve volunteered to attended dedicated training on what it means to be a Flynn coach, so that they can better support our coachee through their first 6 months with Flynn. You can spot a coach on the crew by their beige hard hat that says “COACH”.
Flynn University for Frontline Coaches (FUFC) supports and trains field members in specific scopes, who want to be Flynn Coaches. This program focuses on how to effectively coach and engage inexperienced general labourers, reducing turnover and building a quality workforce.

For Coaches: Developing coachees is considered a legitimate workplace activity and will be paid for by the company
For Coachees: On the job training is paid by the company. However, some videos may be better viewed on a wireless network which may need to take a few minutes at home in preparation for doing the task the next day
3 coachees at a time would be considered the maximum, to ensure that you have sufficient time to dedicate to each coachee without it interfering with you doing your job duties.
There is no time limit, as long as you and your coach agree to keep training. However, the program is designed for a 6-month duration. The longer the coach and coachee relationship, the easier it becomes to communicate with one another and the more beneficial it becomes to both the coach, and the coachee.
Coaches should try and arrange with the foreman/superintendent that the coachee is paired with a new trained coach. As a coach it is your responsibility to make sure your coachee does not end up without a coach.
