The International Rafting Federation Guide Training and Award System is the most widely recognised white water raft guide qualification in the world.
This workshop offers an excellent learning experience for people wanting to learn the basics of raft guiding through to the most experienced guides, trip leaders and instructors.
The workshop is delivered under a dynamic process of IRF Instructors in training facilitating assessments for raft guides and trip leaders. The whole process is supervised by an IRF Assessor with extensive international experience.

If people attending at guide training level and do not have the required equipment please contact ACE before buying the equipment as we can advise what is appropriate for rafting and have some items in stock.
Personal equipment needs to be maintained to an acceptable standard. All safety equipment must be CE approved. Equipment should be stored on the person so as not to constitute an entrapment/snagging hazard, i.e. adopt a clean profile.
The IRF Guide Training, Assessment & Instructor Workshop runs over five days.
This is how a typical workshop runs:
Includes assessment of appropriate IRF Raft Guide and Trip Leader Levels and assessment of relevant Instructor skills depending on the appropriate level of logged experience as per the IRF Award System.
To become an IRF Instructor you need to have attended at least two IRF raft guide training courses and been observed by an IRF Assessor while you run a raft guide training course and complete guide and trip leader assessments (i.e. instructor workshops such as this course).
This is an excellent opportunity to share knowledge, hone coaching skills and obtain a valuable qualification.
Attendance over the whole five days and participation are required.
