Emergency First Response® Offers Instructor Trainer Course at DEMA
Course Creates New Opportunities for
Emergency First Response Instructors and Dive Centers
RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA, CA, 19 September 2006 – Emergency First Response Corp is
joining its corporate affiliate, PADI Americas, to offer Instructor Trainer Courses
at the 2006 DEMA Show in Orlando in November. Attendees can significantly expand
their opportunities with the addition of the prestigious Emergency First Response
Instructor Trainer credential, and still take advantage of the many other seminars
PADI is offering.
Those attending the Emergency First Response Instructor Trainer Course will learn
how to train others as Emergency First Response Instructors. They can then offer
the Emergency First Response Instructor Course at their local dive center or resort,
or in their community. This means increased revenue for PADI Dive Centers and Resorts
through EFR™ awareness as well as through instructor course training fees and product
sales. “Greater brand awareness is an advantage for EFR Instructors,” says Brad
Smith, Director of Business Development and Training at Emergency First Response.
“As new EFR Instructors teach lay providers, the awareness of our programs grows,
which is helping EFR Instructors enter new markets like schools, businesses and
government agencies.”
Completing the Emergency First Response Instructor Trainer Course at DEMA this year
will allow seminar attendees to take advantage of the winter months to fill their
training schedules and boost income. EFR recommends that dive operations and instructor
trainers offer a package that combines both instructor training and course materials
to maximize revenue.
To qualify for the Emergency First Response Instructor Trainer Course, you must
be an active EFR Primary Care/Secondary Care and Care for Children Instructor, have
issued 25 completion cards or taught five classes, and have no verified quality
assurance issues in the past twelve months. The Instructor Trainer Course will be
held on the 7th and 8th of November from 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM or on the 10th and 11th
of November from 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM. The price is $225. To sign up for the course,
