Used to be you needed to go through a BIC (Basic Instructor's Course) before you could get any other instructional ratings, like Static Line or AFF jumpmaster or even get your tandem rating. Now they did away with this, and replaced it with the USPA Coaches' Course instead.
Confused about coaching and coaches? click here for some more details, where I attempt to help sort it out...
Attending the USPA Basic Instructor Course (BIC) is the first step in getting any skydiving ratings, such as AFF, Static Line, and Tandem Jumpmaster or Instructor. So if you have any interest in getting any of these ratings, I suggest you take the opportunity to attend this BIC. Instructing and jump mastering is an excellent way to make a serious contribution and help the sport of skydiving grow.
The Jan 2001 BIC at Skydive Orange was a great success! If you are interested in attending our next BIC, drop us an email so we can see how many are interested. We usually hold a BIC or two in the winter months. |
