Region 115 Instructor Certification Camp 11/14-15/2009


School Owners: please forward or post this information to your instructors/trainees. Thank you.

Hello everyone, we are excited & looking forward to seeing everyone at this year's instructor certification camp. I have spoken with many of you and it sounds like we'll have a strong group as always.
In addition to examining our core curriculum, we want to help in any way we can to make you a better instructor.
Everyone will be responsible for teaching a 5 minute segment demonstrating level appropriate curriculum and teaching skills/Class management skills.
You will be tested over the memory and proper execution of all color belt forms.

I know all of you will do great and we will have a region full of instructors with a new collar for the fall season!  Call ATA HQ to register.

If any of you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me (richard.harman@ata-owner.com). Looking forward to seeing all of you soon.
