altichick 0 #1 October 27, 2004 Hi, Can anyone tell me if the items on the proficiency card for the USPA coach course (teaching/asisting first jump courses) need to be comleted at a USPA DZ or could they be done (for example) in the UK prior to attending a USPA course? Thanks Sal Don't sweat the petty things... and don't pet the sweaty things! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tombuch 0 #2 October 27, 2004 The proficiency card can be completed at any drop zone, but must be under the direct supervision of a USPA rated instructor. The elements you teach must be done according to the USPA outline. A USPA instructor in the UK will be able to guide you in that direction, and should be able to arrange an opportunity to teach part of a BPA program that also qualifies under the USPA BSR's and ISP.Tom Buchanan Instructor Emeritus Comm Pilot MSEL,G Author: JUMP!

Shark 0 #3 October 27, 2004 Hi Sally, Tom summarized it nicely. While you had the time we could have gone through your card while you were at El Snore. Heck, I there were several FJCs that you could have sat in and assist. Harold did. Anywho, see you next time yer in SoCal. Shark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
altichick 0 #4 October 28, 2004 I know I should have used my time a bit more 'productively' whilst I was out there ... but I was having too much fun jumping and enjoying the sun!
