Highlights
British Canoeing Sea Kayak Leader Assessment.
What to expect…
The assessment will run for two days.
We do offer one-to-one single day assessments. Please contact us for further information and booking.
In addition to demonstrating appropriate personal paddling skills; candidates will be asked to be involved in a variety of tasks. These will include; leading a group of kayakers on a suitable day’s journey, managing problems and rescues as needed, navigating the group during the day and journey planning in a ‘Moderate’ environment.
We structure our assessments to ensure all candidates are provided with the opportunity to perform to the best of their ability. To help alleviate the inherent pressures tied in with assessments; we work to make sure the two days are fair, clear and delivered in a relaxed yet structured way.
Prior to joining the course all candidates will be sent a pre-course information pack. This will include details outlining the structure of the assessment and the required prerequisites (including the Candidate Leadership Registration form, available from B.C. online). The minimum number of participants to run the assessment is one.
