We recommend that all volunteer instructors take a US Sailing Instructor Course (Note: This is not a necessary requirement). The US SAILING Small Boat Sailing Level 1 Instructor Course, approved by the U.S. Coast Guard, is designed to teach sailing instructors on-the-water group management and instruction techniques for dinghies, multihull and small daysailing keelboats. This is a 40 hour course conducted in four days. Topics covered include: sports psychology, sports physiology, lesson planning, safety issues, risk management, classroom and on-the-water teaching techniques. Participants must have experience and expertise in sailing small boats such as prams, dinghies, multi-hulls, and day sailing keelboats. These skills will NOT be taught and are mandatory for satisfactory completion.
