Coaching courses are run through associations in conjunction with Basketball Queensland. There are a number of courses coaches can take part in to further their own knowledge and understanding about the sport of basketball. These courses are listed below with a brief description.

"Let's Begin Coaching" course: The `Lets Begin Basketball' course has been specifically designed for parents and coaches new to the game. They may include people whose knowledge of basketball isn't strong and have been given the task of coaching a team this year or parents who simply want to know more about basketball to enjoy their child's experience.

Level One Coaching Course: This course is the first step for coaches to gain formal accreditation in the sport of basketball. The information contained within this course is very broad and touches upon all the major elements involved within coaching a team at club and association levels of competition.

Level Two Coaching Course: This course gives greater detail and knowledge about the elements involved in coaching a basketball team at elite levels such as state representative and athlete development. The course focuses on a coach's personal development and how to continue to gain knowledge about the sport of basketball.

Level Three Coaching Course: This course is currently under review and waiting sanctioning by the Australian Sports Commission. The course focuses on the elite level skills needed to coach within the professional ranks of coaches within Australia.
