FULL- ACA Level 2 Kayak Instructor Course May 6-8

Course is full and closed.

Hi Folks,

We have several openings still available in our upcoming ACA Level 2 Essentials of River Kayaking Instructor course which will be held May 6-8 at Current River State Park in Missouri http://mostateparks.com/park/current-ri ... ncanoe.org for the total history of our organization. Becoming an ACA instructor is a big accomplishment, as it is a certification recognized in outdoor education programs throughout the US and abroad. Thousands of instructors and program participants yearly are part of this and we would be excited to welcome you to the group of outdoor education instructors using this as a training and teaching standard.

In the upcoming workshop we will be building on your current skills and showing new and innovative teaching methods, as well as sharing ideas about enhanced risk management and how to effectively deal with challenges that we as instructors encounter in water based programs.

I am including a link to the instructor criteria and certification standards. Here is the link to the ACA L-2 Essencials of River Kayaking instructor criteria -

Please take the time to read this thoroughly, as it will answer many questions that you might have.

Do be aware that you must join the ACA beforehand to be able to participate in the instructor program! This and more is detailed in the criteria that I linked to above. Here is a link to where you can join online, which is by far the easiest way to do so.
