Hire A Coach

[Brian Minkin]

I am attending an advanced instructor training day at Mid Ohio the end of August that is the type of training that bob is referring to. It is being taught by the Mid Ohio instructors and the focus is on getting faster, not how to teach.  The premise is that once the training is completed an instructor should have more to offer advanced students. The cost is $200 per instructor and there are 60 attending. The training day is on Friday and then there is a 2 day DE on Saturday and Sunday.  National PCA considers this to be a pilot program and if it goes well is something they will probably move forward with.

I think it is difficult to fit advanced instructor training in with a regular DE weekend since we are all very busy with students.  Perhaps having an advanced driver day at one of our 3 day events like we do at Pocono in the spring would work better for this type of coaching.  I would suggest talking to Myles about the concept.
