This article provides a framework that describes the aspects involved in designing quality web‐based mental skills education (MSE) environments. The framework is grounded in the literature of web‐based learning and sport psychology theory and practice. The core of the framework is the web‐based educational environment. In order for web‐based MSE to be effective, it should involve the athletes in environments that promote active learning. The following five characteristics of quality web‐based MSE environments are outlined and discussed: (a) self‐directing, (b) meaningful, (c) accommodating, (d) reflective, and (e) social. Careful consideration is also given to four elements suggested to facilitate the creation of a quality web‐based MSE environment: (a) quality resources, (b) quality consulting approaches, (c) quality use of technology, and (d) quality service. This framework may provide some direction for mental skills educators beginning to explore web‐based MSE and for researchers wanting to study the effectiveness of the web as a means for MSE.
