COVID-19 REC & RYA Guidelines for Shorebased courses
This is a live document and is in the process of being put together as of March 2021.
"What do the restrictions mean for RYA Training activity in England?
Based on information we have received from Government we are expecting that RYA practical training for leisure purposes may recommence at centres in England from Monday 29 March. This will be restricted to outdoor training only unless the training is for work or vocational purposes, in which case it is already permitted under current restrictions." (Source RYA).
Tec Rec Coaching are currently providing REC 2 Day Outdoor First Aid, RYA Powerboat, RYA First Aid and VHF Radio courses for work or vocational purposes only, as classrooms will be used, dates are on our website.
Unfortunately we are not currently providing REC 2 Day Outdoor First Aid, RYA Powerboat, RYA First Aid or VHF Radio courses for Leisure purposes as Leisure courses cannot use an indoor classroom we expect this to change on 17 May 2021, hence Leisure purposes REC 2 Day Outdoor First Aid, RYA Powerboat, RYA First Aid and VHF Radio course dates are now on our website, courses starting from 17th May 2021.
There are restrictions on course delivery depending on which course it is.
Right now we are delivering All shorebased classroom and Powerboat courses for Work or Vocational purposes and we will be using the classroom.
After 17th May 2021 we are delivering All shorebased classroom First Aid and VHF Radio and Powerboat courses for Leisure. Right now, due to the weather, temperature, noise and distractions we have decided not to offer these courses to Leisure customers as it would mean being taught outside and having no access to the classroom for getting warm and providing quality tuition.
Leisure purposes Rec 2 Day Outdoor First Aid, RYA Powerboat, RYA First Aid or RYA VHF Radio courses from 17 May 2021: Please book in on our web pages or contact us and we will discuss how we can help.
We will be providing Hand Sanitiser, Wipes, Gloves and Face Masks for customers and staff to use. Should customers wish to provide their own protection please discuss with your Instructor on the day how it can be looked after. There are sanitiser pumps on each desk in the classrooms.
Customers are requested to meet the Government guidelines regarding Social Distancing, regular hand washing, and being aware of the signs and symptoms of COVID-19 ie raised temperature etc.
Customers will be expected to bring their own drinks and lunch, unfortunatley we are no longer in a position to provide hot drinks.
