ADVANCED FREEDIVER INSTRUCTOR TRAINER

The intent of the RAID Freediving Instructor Trainer program is to provide candidates with the knowledge, teaching and practical skills to successfully develop RAID Freediving Instructor candidates at all levels.

ADVANCED FREEDIVER INSTRUCTOR TRAINER

There are three certification levels within the Instructor Trainer program:

This program may only be conducted by appointment from RAID HQ. An appointed RAID examiner is to directly supervise and evaluate all required knowledge for the core certification. Only a RAID Freediving Examiner can evaluate the in-water skills section of the RAID Freediving Instructor Trainer course.
