The International Surfing Association [ISA] is continuing to drive the global development of Surfing and Stand-Up Paddle [SUP] with the certification of more than 1,500 instructors at 150 ISA Educational Courses which took place across 35 countries during 2015.

Further significant development is also expected during 2016 with 200 courses across 40 countries already underway or planned with a target of certifying a further 2,000 instructors. Overall, more than 5,000 instructors have been certified by the ISA.

The ISA Coaching and Instructing Programme is designed to establish an industry standard of safety, quality and efficacy for surf and SUP coaches and instructors around the world. The courses aim to develop the skills, knowledge and abilities of individuals who wish to take a scientific approach to the coaching of Surfing. With emphasis on risk management, duty of care and water safety, the ISA Coaching and Instructing Programme creates a safer environment to learn the sport.

Driven by a strategy underpinned by the growth and development of Surfing worldwide, the ISA has worked hard to develop the sport in non-traditional markets - an approach reflected by the diverse range of countries that have hosted ISA Educational Courses in recent years.
