The ASA 202 is a one-day clinic designed to verify your ASA 102 Basic Keelboat Sailing 2 Instructor qualification. Your competency will be compared with the ASA’s internationally recognized Standards. This is not a course of instruction as such. While you will gain valuable knowledge from your experience in the Clinic, your competence as a sailor and a teacher is presumed; you are attending to become certified to instruct.

Following successful completion of your IQC, the ASA will send you the instructor credentials and graduation letter.

Candidates will learn to teach how to skipper and crew aboard a sloop-rigged keelboat of approximately 20 to 30 feet in length daily in winds up to 20 knots. It is designed for sailors interested in building their core sailing skills, including sail trim and close-quarter maneuvering. The course covers more advanced sailing skills and sail trim. Depart, sail, and return with control, demonstrating teamwork. Safety, Preparation & Procedures, Boat Handling, Upwind Sail Trim, Reaching and Running Sail Trim, Sail Shape and Power, and How Sail Controls Affect Sail Shape and Power.

This IQC training course combines classroom and on-the-water instruction. Passing the written exams, on-the-water and classroom teaching evaluations, you will earn your ASA Basic Coastal Cruising Sailing Instructor 202 certification.
