The Instructor Qualification Clinics (IQC) are not training courses but rather an evaluation of the candidate’s knowledge, skills, and ability to teach ASA classes. This ASA 201 IQC is the first instructor-level clinic in the ASA keelboat training system and certifies an individual for teaching the ASA 101, Basic Keelboat 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.
-
1. Candidates must be a current ASA member, or willing to reactivate their membership.
2. Candidates must have completed the ASA 101 student course. -
Apply for the ASA 201 IQC by downloading and printing the ASA 201 Instructor Application Form then emailing the completed application to CBS@SailTime.com.

Even though you can earn your ASA Instructor Certificate without holding a US Merchant Marine Credential (captain’s license), you will not be eligible to work as an instructor on US federal waters without your USCG Captain’s License.
