October News! - Level 1-3 Courses!

Dear UKPA members
I am pleased to inform you that funding has been secured for the UK Certificate in Coaching Levels 1-3

 This covers England, Wales and Scotland.

 If you are a coach or instructor and you would like to join a course I am now taking names.

 Level 2 will be the first to roll out as that is the equivalent of the BHSAI /PTT qualification in terms of Coaching. 

So long as I have a group of 6-8 in any location then I will set up a course. This comprises four days and an assessment day following the gathering of evidence from live coaching sessions. We can negotiate how this is achieved once a group has been formed.

Candidates must be 16 years and over and be competent riders. 

Please apply by sending me the following: 

Your full name:

 DOB :

Address and post code: 

Preferred region for the course to take place:
