Instructor Development Course Strengthens Paddling Leadership Skills


This advanced instructor development course is designed for experienced paddlers and educators who want to enhance their teaching abilities and maintain exceptional instructional standards. A successful instructor combines strong paddling skills, effective teaching methods, sound judgment, and the ability to create an engaging learning environment for every participant.


Through a combination of classroom sessions and on-water practice, instructors refine their communication skills, group management techniques, and safety decision-making abilities. The course focuses on practical application, professional growth, and the core habits that help create confident and effective paddlesports educators.


Participants review current ACA best practices, updated teaching strategies, and relevant organizational changes while exploring new ways to deliver impactful instruction. With peer collaboration, hands-on exercises, and constructive feedback, instructors strengthen their ability to adapt lessons and meet the needs of diverse learners.


Completion of the update requirements is based on demonstrated competency rather than attendance alone. Instructors must show proficiency through skill performance, teaching ability, and professional conduct at their current certification level. This process ensures paddling instructors continue to provide safe, knowledgeable, and inspiring experiences within the paddlesports community.

I did a so-called beginner kayak course wit these guys in June 2024. On that course, whilst doing an emergency manoeuvre as per instructions, I broke my right femur. I was upside down & 6 ft under water when this happened. I was rushed to the hospital after the club phoned for an ambulance. But that was only after I screamed for them to do so. They initially told me it was probably just a 'leg spasm'. I was operated in hospital the next day. In addition to the excruciating agony I was in that day and for some time afterwards I incurred several medical expenses and needed time off work not to mention how it altered my life at that time and for some time afterwards. I heard nothing from the club, in fact they, despite me being a member, they completely washed their hands of me. I have been in touch with them and Canoe Ireland on a few occasions and they have both promised to look into it. If they actually did even that much I don't really know. They certainly did not get back to me with any meaningful response or solution. It's up to you how you would feel joining a club like this or taking a course with a club like that.

Set on along a beautiful 3km section of the River Liffey overlooking Palmerstown Weir and bounded upstream by the Wrens Nest weir. The club hosts many paddle sport disciplines - open Canadian canoes, canoe and kayak slalom, polo, marathon/sprint, wild water racing, paddle boarding and is an ideal location for learning and improving all-year round.
