The full instructor program additionally includes teaching methods and work experience working alongside active instructors. To maintain high teaching standards, all level 1 instructors must attain their level 2 qualifications within a year of completing their training.
To become an instructor, you must:
• Have IKO level 3 (or prove equivalent) kitesurfing ability
• Have a powerboat license or equivalent skill level if no obligatory license is required in your home country,
• Have an IKO assistant instructor certification or proof of sport teaching experience (windsurfing, surfing, paragliding, yachting, etc.)

The ITC course will be led by Robbie Andersen who works as a full-time kiteboard instructor and examiner. He is also a BWSF wakeboard and water ski instructor, PADI dive master and IKO/MFA instructor.
Robbie has spent time as a wakeboard and water ski instructor in Scotland, and has taught kiteboarding in St.Lucia, Egypt, Turkey, and Venezuela.
