Topic: How do you become a Senior Instructor? Posted: 15 Sep 05 at 12:06pm |
Can anyone help me? I want to become a senior instructor as I have been sailing for more years than I care to remember. The last RYA course I did was when I was a teenager. Are there any courses available where I can go straight to SI level? Or do I need to do a basic instrutor course first? I know I will need First Aid and Power Boat level 2. Can anyone recommend a suitable training establishment in the South of England? |

You need to be an instructor first, with 2 years instructing experience
(or 1 year full time), you need first aid and Safety Boat - PB2 is for
the dinghy Instructor course - and a recommendation from an RYA centre
principal. I can let you know what the course is like next year!

I did my SI course at Rockley Point a few years ago and they were excellent.

Gael If I keep a diary of my experience at Calshot in a couple of weeks do you think Y&Y might buy it and hence help defray the cost of the course? |
