On 8 September 2026, the Colombian Kempo Federation (FEDEKEMPO), with the support of the Colegio Colombiano de Entrenamiento Deportivo (COCED), organised an online educational session dedicated to the professional and ethical responsibilities of sports coaches.
The programme focused on an Introduction to the Code of Ethics for Sports Coaches and the accreditation process as a sports coach, within the framework of the applicable Colombian legislation.
Particular emphasis was placed on the principles of ethics, responsibility and leadership, highlighting the important role of coaches not only in the technical and sporting development of athletes, but also in their personal development and in the creation of safe, responsible and professional sporting environments.
This initiative reflects FEDEKEMPO’s commitment to the continuous education and professional development of Kempo coaches, while promoting higher standards of integrity, responsibility and good governance within the sport.
The International Kempo Federation (IKF) recognises the importance of such educational initiatives in strengthening the professional standards of Kempo and promoting a culture of integrity throughout its international community.
