| 2007 USFA Coaches College
We are very pleased to finally announce the approval of the 2007 Edition of Coaches College and Armorers College schedule by the US Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs.
Please bear with us a few more days as we finalize our course and Session schedules. In addition to the Coaches College and Armorer College courses, we will again be offering the 'Become A Fencing Instructor' for PE Teachers and the 'Wheelchair Coaching course'
Information will be posted at: http://www.usfacoaching.org/
Thanks for your understanding, this is a scheduling issue that was out of the control of the USFA and the Coaches College/Armorers College. | 
|  | | And now for this message... |

FYI: Session 1 = July 12 (Red Cross Arrival day - 13 = arr for others) to July 21(depart day)

| Am I reading the Armorer's application correctly in that there's no L1 being offered this year? I was looking forward to getting my feet wet.
Also, does anyone know how the gym space was resolved? I'm more curious than anything.

| I was always curious, what if you were already rated for first aid and CPR, but via the American Heart Association instead of Red Cross. I know where CPR/AED training is concerned, they are pretty much identical in their protocols, now.
