IQC 218: Docking Endorsement Instructor Qualification Clinic (1-Day)

Docking Endorsement Instructor Qualification Clinic

The Instructor Qualification Clinics (IQC) are not training courses but rather an evaluation of the candidates knowledge, skills, and ability to teach ASA classes. This ASA 218 IQC certifies an individual for teaching the ASA 118 Docking Endorsement course. ASA Instructor Certification Standards parallel those required for students but at a much higher level and with an emphasis on teaching skills. Candidates are evaluated by a certified ASA Instructor Evaluator and must score 90% or more on the written examination, pass a rigorous oral examination, and demonstrate extensive on-the-water skills.

Prerequisites

1. Candidates must be a current ASA member, or willing to reactivate their membership.
2. Candidates must be ASA 201 Instructor Certified and have completed the ASA 118 student course.
