We are looking forward to having you apply and participate with the ATV Safety Institute (ASI) to become an ASI Licensed Instructor to deliver the BSA facilitated ATV Safety Institutes ATV RiderCourseSM. The training will be held May 12-15 (Thursday-Sunday) at Zink High Adventure Base (ZBASE) just outside of Tulsa, OK. Primary training will be conducted between the hours of 8:00a.m. and 5:00p.m. Additional peer team practice/study sessions will take place after dinner each day. The course will conclude at approximately 3:00p.m. on the last day.

The primary responsibility of ASI Licensed Instructors is to teach the ATV Safety Institutes ATV RiderCourse - a half-day, hands-on training program.  The ATV RiderCourse provides participants a training experience that includes basic ATV riding skills, safe riding practices, environmental awareness, and information about protective riding gear.

 The ATV Safety Institute Instructor Preparation (IP) Course is a four-day course that teaches individuals how to deliver all the components of the ATV RiderCourse. Instructor Candidates will learn how to evaluate and coach student riders, use different presentation techniques, and communication skills.  Please be aware that the IP is a pass/fail course, and Instructor Candidates need to have prior ATV riding experience.
