First Aid Courses:
Even a basic knowledge of First Aid can save a life, so it’s no surprise that training is mandatory for RYA Instructors, and a valuable skill to have in any walk of life. Our approved RYA course is aimed primarily at watersports users, and covers areas of First Aid commonly encountered in a sailing/watersports environment, such as hypothermia and cold water shock.
These will be advertised on this page when it becomes available.
Assistant Instructor Course:
We run Assistant Instructor Courses for those who are looking to step up and help with the training program at Midland Sailing Club. You must have a recommendation from the Principal of the Training Centre and also have passed a certain level of personal skill. Below is the current course that will be running.
RYA Start Windsurfing Instructor Course:
We run RYA Start Windsurfing Instructor Courses for those who are looking to step up and help with any training program at your local Club.
The cost for this course is £300 per person and you must attend all five days of the course. You must also have the following things or plan to do them in the near future to be allowed on the Instructor course:
- RYA Powerboat Level 2
