Instructor Training
All iRide in-school instructors undergo training with the National Coaches Certification Program and orientation with iRide prior to working with school students. Once hired, instructors participate in the Community Initiation and Basic Cycling Skills course, often available on a Friday evening and Saturday. The iRide Orientation takes place on Sunday and is preceded by access to program resources with the expectations that new instructors arrive having carefully reviewed the materials and are ready to practice delivering games and teaching during that final day. An exam is currently in development that will be taken shortly before orientation day.
