Become a Sailing Instructor - ASA Instructor Qualification Clinic

True North Sailing will host an ASA Instructor Clinic from April 28-May 1, 2007.  For anyone wishing to obtain or upgrade ASA instructor qualifications, four (4) levels of certification will be offered: Basic Keelboat Instructor, Basic Coastal Cruising Instructor, Coastal Navigation Instructor & Bareboat Chartering Instructor.

For those interested in obtaining a USCG captain's license, the clinic will also qualify candidates for Limited versions of both the OUPV ("six pack") and the 100 ton Master.

The clinic is priced very reasonably: $250 for Basic Keelboat Instructor, $150 for Basic Coastal Cruising Instructor + Coastal Navigation Instructor combined and $150 for Bareboat Chartering Instructor.

Please note that while candidates will learn an enormous amount during the clinic, it's primary purpose to evaluate a candidate's potential as a sailing instructor. IQCs are meant for more advanced sailors, and candidates must be confident in their abilities to sail a J24 single-handed, including anchoring and/or docking under sail.

We hope to fill the clinic and see a lot of great sailors become great instructors this summer.
