Level 2 Certification
You’ve finished Level 1, now what? Level 2 of course! The Level 2 Certification is for inline and quad skaters that have already earned their Level 1 certification and have been teaching for at least a year. This program brings you into a true leadership role as you’ll develop the skills to teach at a higher level with specific training to help you teach large groups, students of varying skating abilities, kids, those with special needs, and across a wider variety of learning styles.
“Skate IA helps bring the real love of skating to the community. From the people involved to the culture it has created, Skate IA is a gift to us all who are looking to build up our communities and skate programs.”
