Join us for this USA Archery Level 1 Instructor certification course, which certifies participants to lead archery programs for three years, provides the necessary tools to maintain a high level of safety both on and off the archery range for camps and beginner archery programs. This training has both an online component through USA Archery (taking approximately 4 hours) and an in-person component; if you do not complete the online portion prior to the training date, you will not be permitted to attend the Archery Instructor Training and will not be offered a refund. This is a USA Archery requirement, and GSOSW is unable to make exceptions.
