IFC Training

What to do with a weekend?

Lewis decided that the best bet is to advance his diving knowledge and start the training to become a BSAC instructor.

Chester Sub Aqua were hosting an IFC (Instructor Foundation Course) and a SITCA (Snorkel Instructors Course), the first step to becoming an instructor. It is run over a two day period with a combination of theory and practical sessions.

Pool training

These are combined as training and then practice sessions, where the students become the instructors for both the classroom based and pool based training.

Lewis successfully completed the weekend and now advances on to the exam, practical and theory instructor assessments.

Congratulations from the whole club.

I have always loved the sea and diving gives me that little bit of extra special interaction. I love diving anywhere and always find sites interesting and an exhilarating activity, constantly enhancing and improving my skills and knowledge. My favourite diving has to be around the British Isles and in particular St Abbs. It has everything, the sea life, the socialising, the history and the thrill. TSAC has opened up many areas and opportunities for me and hopefully will continue to do so in the future. Here’s to the next adventure.
