Why ISPA?

What could be more exhilarating than to join a group of expert sailors who form our instructor base teaching one of the premier sail and power boating instruction programs in the world. For decades now ISPA has provided instructors to schools worldwide.
​ISPA provides a premier Method of Instruction course which will be the basis for your teaching all levels in our program. Your goal as an ISPA instructor will be to provide students with the same uniform methods and using manuals that provide a progressive building block system that takes them for beginners to any level of their choosing up to accomplished Yachtmaster Ocean.
What does it cost?
We don't make our money on Schools and Instructor fees like other organizations do.
We feel that you should be able to offer your passion to others at a fair price. 

School fees are $100 on the first year
and $75 on additional years.
Instructors fees are $100 per year, 
Instructor stamp is $50, one time.
Your Instructor crossover fee or Instructor course is considered on a case basis- generally between $300 and $1000 depending on your situation.
