The BMFA Approved Instructor (AI) is the second stage in the Instructor Scheme. Approved Instructors must be current members of the BMFA and initially be put forward by a club to be tested by an Area Chief Instructor (ACI), in much the same way that a Club Examiner is tested by an ACE.

NOTE: Approved Instructors must also have held a relevant 'A' certificate for a minimum period of six months.

Approved Instructors are free to move between clubs and are expected to take the lead in maintaining the standard of instruction at club and individual level.

Candidates should familiarise themselves with the assessment procedure which is available to download from here!
