Title: interested in a refresher course?
Post by: Sick Boy on July 28, 2008, 18:04:43
benny is looking for people to be trainees for a level 2 instructor assessment. it will take place on monday 18 August 2008 at Liffey Centre.

there will also be a level four kayak instructor assessment on Wednesday 13 August. In Wicklow, probably Annamoe this is water dependent. for this he is looking for people who are well above the level 3 proficiency.

any how if you are interested or have any questions post up.

but you have your level four. ill say it to him but i dont think he wants people who already have the assessment. im sure you can see why he might not want to assess people training those who already have the proficiency...

I secretly think you want me to admit that I don't have my level four. I failed the assessment, broke my helmet, my paddles and knocked my self out. It was fun ;)
