| The ISAF Learn to Sail Training Programme is specifically aimed at learning to sail in small dinghies and provides a best practice approach. The Programme is intended to be illustrative, rather than prescriptive and it should be recognized that ISAF does not consider this Programme to be a “one size fits all” approach, but an approach based on existing best practice. The content of the ISAF Learn to Sail Training Programme is primarily targeted at those countries with small training programmes or no current provision.
ISAF is also developing an ISAF Accreditation System, by which ISAF can accredit MNA national training programmes. The value of ISAF Accreditation could include increased access to government and/or commercial funding by MNAs and a globally recognized set of training standards for the sport.
Presentations on the ISAF Learn to Sail Training Programme and the vision for the ISAF Accreditation System will take place at the ISAF Connect to Sailing Seminar taking place from 14:30-18:00 on Sunday 9 November 2008 during the ISAF Annual Conference, Madrid, Spain. All are welcome to attend.
