Aerial Teacher TRAINING
Details / COURSE OBJECTIVES

Details

How is the Beginner Teacher Training structured?
Beginner training is about the basics. It includes didactic training in addition to lots of hands-on aerial training. Each trainee will focus on honing their teaching skills on the apparatus that they have chosen to focus on for certification. 
On the last day, those who have submitted their practice/teaching/supervision hours for verification will have the opportunity to be assessed by Carrie for Certifications on your chosen apparatus. Certifications will be e-mailed to those who pass their assessments and have verified all practice/supervision hours. 

How is the Intermediate Teacher Training structured?
Intermediate training is about reviewing the basics and learning the next level of aerial skills, safety, classroom management, injury prevention, as well as a more in depth look at skill progressions, rigging and more. It includes didactic training in addition to lots of hands-on aerial training. Each trainee will focus on honing their teaching skills on the apparatus that they have chosen to focus on for certification. 
On the last day, those who have submitted their
practice/teaching/supervision hours for verification will have the opportunity to be assessed by Carrie for Certifications on your chosen apparatus. Certifications will be e-mailed to those who pass their assessments and have verified all practice/supervision hours.

How is the Advanced Teacher Training structured?
Advanced training is about reviewing the intermediate skill set and learning the next level of skill & safety, classroom management, including creating a safe emotional space. It includes didactic training in addition to lots of hands-on aerial training. Each trainee will focus on honing their teaching skills on the apparatus that they have chosen to focus on for certification. 
On the last day, those who have submitted their
practice/teaching/supervision hours for verification will have the opportunity to be assessed by Carrie for Certifications on your chosen apparatus. Certifications will be e-mailed to those who pass their assessments and have verified all practice/supervision hours.
​
How is the Trainer Teacher Training structured?
To become a trainer, many years of teaching are required.  We spend time reviewing the advanced skill set and learning what it means to teach other teachers, as opposed to teaching other students.  Each trainee will focus on honing their teaching/trainer skills on the apparatus that they have chosen to focus on for certification. 
On the last day, those who have submitted their
practice/teaching/supervision hours for verification will have the opportunity to be assessed by Carrie for Certifications on your chosen apparatus. Certifications will be e-mailed to those who pass their assessments and have verified all practice/supervision hours.

Why Get Trained at the Circus Arts Institute?
The Circus Arts Institute has been in the business of training teachers both in-house and for other programs for over 30 years. Carrie Heller is a lover of the Circus Arts and wants all Circus Arts programs to operate at their highest safety standards possible. 
To this end, ACE, a branch of AYCO, has evaluated our Teacher Training Program and we are proud to be the first Teacher Training Program in America to be recognized for our excellent standards.
