Details of each level of instructor training can be found below, along with details of how to convert pre-2005 qualifications to the current scheme.
Conversion of Level 2 instructors and aboveThe scheme was revised in 2005, with the introduction of the new coaching technique Fastfwd. As a result the intructor training programme has been updated. Therefore, those holding the Level 2 instructor qualification must complete a conversion course before their next revalidation is due.
Conversion courses are one-day regional events organised by the Regional Development Officer (RDO) and subsidised by RYA Training. Further details are available from the instructor course dates leaflet in the link above. A list of RDOs is shown on the last page of the leaflet.
Conversion courses will cease to be run from spring 2009.
