Over four full days, you’ll build the skills needed to supervise instructors, manage courses, and take responsibility for safe, effective activity delivery on the water. 🧭 Key Details Qualification: RYA Senior Instructor Duration: 4 days Ages: 18+ Experience level: Advanced instructor pathway ⛵ Key Skills Planning and delivering structured sailing sessions Supervising instructors and managing groups afloat Powerboat handling in a teaching environment Applying RYA Sailing Schemes in real settings Decision-making and leadership within a centre 📘 Course Breakdown Early stages of the course focus on understanding the role of a Senior Instructor within a training centre. Sessions cover how courses are planned, how instructors are supported, and how standards are maintained across multiple groups on the water. Time is spent discussing best practice, communication, and how to manage varied abilities within a single programme. As the course progresses, candidates take a more active role in running water-based sessions. You’ll be assessed continuously while organising activities, supervising instructors, and responding to real-time challenges. Powerboat handling is developed further, with emphasis on positioning, safety oversight, and supporting learning rather than simply driving skills. Assessment is ongoing throughout the four days rather than concentrated into a single test. Feedback is given regularly, allowing you to adjust, improve, and demonstrate consistency in leadership, judgement, and delivery by the end of the course. 📍 Location Training takes place in Poole Harbour, offering a practical setting for leadership-focused sailing courses. The sheltered water allows multiple groups to operate safely at once, making it ideal for developing supervision and management skills. Onshore facilities support planning sessions, briefings, and debriefs, giving space to reflect on delivery and discuss centre-wide decision-making. ✅ Prerequisites Candidates must be aged 18 or over and already hold the RYA Dinghy Instructor qualification and RYA Safety Boat.
