Revalidate or upgrade your qualification

Revalidating or upgrading qualifications is a necessary step for Yachting New Zealand to make sure coaches are aware of current best-practice and continually upskilling with new coaching techniques.

There is always something new to be learnt and new approaches to consider in our sport.

Your coaching qualifications expire every four years.


Learn to sail (all types) and keelboat coaches

Learn to sail coaches and keelboat coaches can revalidate for free within two years of the qualification expiry. If a qualification remains expired for more than two years, coaches will need to take the learn to sail coach or keelboat coach course again.

Fill out the application form online (use the same form whether you are revalidating or trying to upgrade)

There are two ways for these types of coaches to revalidate a qualification:

Fill out the application form online and choose a worksheet to complete. There are many options, varying from planning, video analysis, tidal analysis, wind analysis and designing new drills etc. There is no cost for this and it can be done in one of your coaching sessions anytime throughout the year. Once you have completed this, send it to the coach development manager for feedback.
