How PCI In-Person Certification Works:
This is an on-court, learning-through-experience course. You’ll work alongside other candidates to develop critical coaching skills for teaching in both small group and private lesson settings. At the end of the day, you’ll complete a practical evaluation where you’ll run activities in a small group format. You’ll also complete a knowledge test in the pre-course work, and may be asked to complete a playing skill evaluation in person.
Please note: Earning PCI Level 1 Instructor Certification is not guaranteed. Candidates must successfully meet all evaluation standards.
This course takes place outdoors. There is a clubhouse nearby for cooling off, but candidates should be prepared to be outside for most of the day.
Refund Policy
Please let us know at least 48 hours before your in-person certification clinic and we’ll issue a full refund. Cancellations made with less than 48 hours’ notice are not eligible for a refund.
