The RYA Powerboat Instructor Course is a professional-level training programme that qualifies successful candidates to teach RYA Powerboat Level 2 courses. If you also hold the RYA Safety Boat Certificate, you can additionally teach the RYA Safety Boat Course. The qualification is valid for five years, provided you maintain a valid first aid certificate. ### What are the entry requirements for this course? To enrol, you must be at least 16 years old, hold an RYA Powerboat Level 2 certificate, and have a valid first aid certificate. You must also complete a pre-entry skills assessment and have logged at least five seasons of powerboating experience, or one season if powerboating is a key part of your full-time job. A health declaration form or medical questionnaire is also required. ### What does the pre-entry skills assessment involve? The pre-entry skills assessment tests your boat handling skills, ensuring that you meet the required standard before starting the instructor training. It includes exercises in slow-speed manoeuvring, high-speed handling, safety procedures, and effective use of trim and balance. You must complete this assessment before attending the three-day course, and details can be found in the RYA Power Schemes Instructor Handbook (G19). ### How is the course structured, and what will I learn? The course runs over three days. The first two days focus on developing your instructional techniques, lesson planning, and refining your own powerboat handling skills to a high standard. You will learn how to teach practical and theory-based sessions in a structured and effective way. The final day includes an assessment conducted by an independent RYA Trainer, evaluating both your teaching ability and your technical knowledge. ### What happens if I don’t pass the assessment? If you don’t pass the assessment, you will receive feedback on the areas that need improvement. Depending on your performance, you may need to complete additional training before retaking the assessment. Some candidates may be asked to attend further training days or gain more experience before reapplying. ### Do I need to renew my qualification, and how do I do this? Yes, the RYA Powerboat Instructor qualification is valid for five years. To renew, you must complete an instructor revalidation course before your certificate expires. You must also maintain a valid first aid certificate throughout the five-year period. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://dev.adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://media-dev.adventuro.com/public/0f19d969-f2d2-45be-af9e-41fd711dbc2a/1bcee3e2-4217-4152-8444-b7287449678c/original.webp - **Gallery image count**: 4 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
