Requirements : To participate in a USPA Static-line or IAD Instructor course you need the following:

- Be 18 years old

- USPA membership

- Hold or have held any USPA instructional rating

- Have a USPA C-license or FAI equivalent and at least 200 jumps

- Have the required portions of the static-line/IAD proficiency

You need to have a current SIM and IRM for the course. (current = not older then 24 months) These can be ordered form the USPA.

The Proficiency Card : The static-line/IAD proficiency card is in the back of the IRM. If you are a coach you need to complete number 1-8 prior to the course and bring logbook entries to the course so that the course director can verify that you have completed 10 coach jumps. If you are already a USPA instructor you only need to complete number 1 – 3 and number 5.

The Written Test : One of the requirements to pass the Static-line or IAD rating course is pass a written exam with at least 80 %. The questions for this exam are in the back of the IRM. The tests you have to do for this course are the General Instructor test and the Static-Line/IAD Instructor test. All candidates must complete the written test prior to attending the course. For those who show up without the test completed, or do not score at least 80 % on the first test, a 100 % score will be required on the test that is taken during the course.

The Course : The course starts with one up to one and a half day of classroom. You will get evaluated on ground training and on jumpmaster skills.
