This exciting initiative by the Technical Committee enables instructors and students to up-skill and improve their knowledge at home, gaining qualifications recognised by ITFNZ Inc.
This idea was first presented to the Technical Advisor Group by Masters Banicevich and McPhail at a meeting in June 2018. It was a combination of their idea for a range of instructor training courses (built on what is done in Norway), together with projects of online videos and training courses that Master Banicevich had been doing with his work.

COURSES
NEW:
Umpires Refresher Course
(Available to all current and past Umpires)
This course allows ITFNZ members with a current (or expired) ITFNZ umpiring qualification to undertake the course in their own time and, provided they pass, renew their qualification for another 3 years. You can check your current qualification here.
On-Line First Aid Course for Instructors
(You first have to create a fee account with Pro-trainings)
The course has five modules. You must score 90% in each module to pass. Sign-in to take the course
Instructors, you now have the option to renew your First Aid Qualification with UK based ProTrainings. This course is designed specifically for martial arts instructors and costs £29.95 (Approx $63).
Although not perfect, we feel it is great to have this option for instructors to be able to renew their current First Aid Certificate. This can be done twice before having to attend an in-person course again.
NOTE: The Course features a different emergency number as it is UK based.
