Recently, Philadelphia Union head coach Jim Curtin was among one of 13 professional coaches to complete the first-ever U.S. Soccer Pro License Coaching Course.
A collaborative pilot course that took place over the last 12 months, Curtin completed the course along with a group of Major League Soccer and U.S. Youth National Team coaches, including Columbus' Gregg Berhalter, Sporting KC's Peter Vermes, Dallas' Oscar Pareja, Real Salt Lake's Jeff Cassar, Orlando's Jason Kreis, Colorado's Pablo Mastroeni and D.C. United's Ben Olsen, among others.

The U.S. Soccer Pro Course represents the highest form of soccer licensing offered in North America.
