| The Training Commission was appointed by the ISAF Executive Committee in November 2007. The remit of the Training Commission is to develop an ISAF training capacity and to provide expert advise, guidance and materials on best practice in sail training.
Objective 2 of the ISAF Strategic Plan (November 2005) states that ISAF will 'promote and increase participation in sailing as a lifetime sport' and that ISAF will 'support and encourage MNA's and Classes to produce and deliver a range of sustainable education, training and development programmes to introduce and encourage sailors to stay in the sport'. This is consistent with ISAF Object (b) 'to promote the sport of sailing in all its brances regardless of race, religion, gender or political affiliation'.
Training is seen by ISAF as a fundamental foundation to the sport of sailing and without which effective development of the sport is lessened.
