Following the launch of the nationwide Scootability™ programme in March, we are excited to now be able to offer Scootability™ Instructor Training for the first time. Perfect for anyone looking to add scooters to the list of sports they can provide.
With over a million young people scooting to school as part of the school run and with ever more adults adopting scooters to travel to work, it is essential to provide skills training and improve awareness around road safety.

Much like the Bikeability scheme, Scootability instructors will be able to impart practical skills and offer a better understanding of how to ride near other people and vehicles.

Scootability instructors will be able to deliver fun, safe and engaging sessions to small or large groups, help introduce riders to scooting for the first time and promote the sport not just as a healthy active lifestyle but as a viable option for school travel plans, work and recreational transport.
The Scootability Instructor training course lasts 2 days and will give you a thorough grounding in how to teach children and adults to both Level 1 and Level 2 Scootability standards. The course will be a mix of classroom sessions and outdoor practicals, covering all the subjects and skills you will need to become a confident Scootability Instructor.

Upon successful completion, attendees will receive a Scootability Instructor certificate, a 12 month membership to the Scootability instructor database, all of the printed instructor course materials, example lesson plans and risk assessment templates, access to additional online resources and a 10% discount on scooter product purchases. Everything they need to go and inspire and educate the next generation of safe, confident scooter riders.

(An Advanced Scootability Instructor Training module will be available in late 2019, to allow existing instructors to teach Level 3 Scootability material)
The Scootability Instructor training is suitable for anyone. Previous scooter experience is helpful but not essential. It is ideally suited to existing school, council or youth activity providers who would like to add an additional sport to their delivery options.

The course costs £350+vat per attendee and covers all course materials, equipment use, venue hire and trainer costs. There are discounts available for councils, schools or partnerships that book both small or large groups.
