The Archery GB Instructor Award is the industry’s leading training course for archery. The course is designed for learners with little or no prior experience of archery. To attend an Archery GB Instructor Award course, you must be at least 17 years old by the first day of the course. The course is held over two days and includes a practical assessment. When you pass your Instructors Awards course, you gain an Archery GB Instructor qualification and one free year of the Archery GB Instructor Subscription.
The qualification does not provide you with insurance, so you will need to arrange this yourself or with the organisation you work with.
The course syllabus is delivered over two days with an assessment on the second day.

The cost of attending the Archery GB Instructor Award course ranges from £190 - £250 per person, depending on location. You will need to cover your own travel (and accommodation, if applicable) costs as well, so factor these into the overall costs of the course.
