Instructor Certification Workshops Offered in Area IV
|
 New Spring Farm, as part of a grassroots effort to improve safety and quality of coaching
in the sport of eventing, has hosted Instructors' Certification Program
(ICP) workshops and assessments over the last two years and will
continue in 2010.
Experience has shown us how really valuable these workshops are,
how incredibly skilled the teachers are, and how much instructor
candidates seem to enjoy and profit from them. At $400 for each
three-day workshop, limited to eight candidates, they appear to be
quite a bargain. Many people have audited parts or all of our workshops
and also seem very satisfied. The ICP program itself, once fully seen,
is quite obviously excellent. Those who have designed it and conduct
the various processes meet regularly and continue to refine and improve
it. We assure those considering being candidates that it is fair,
complete, open, well-designed, friendly, and free of teaching style
bias. While our angle is safety improvement for the sport, we also have
come to realize how valuable the transference of horsemanship and basic
teaching skills is that comes with it. Teaching of Dressage Workshop April 13-15 with Robin Walker Teaching of Jumping Workshop June 15-17 with Phyllis Dawson More Information
