MINIMUM RIDE STANDARDS
Please review the video list of skills on the Level 2 page.
The BICP Certification courses are skills teaching courses, not skills learning courses. Participants must be able to perform the skills listed below at or above the BICP Ride Standard prior to attending the in-person course. Successful demonstration of these skills during the course is a requirement for certification. Please contact the BICP for information on a skills prep course if you need help meeting these ride standards.
In order to pass the BICP Level 2 course, participants must demonstrate an understanding of the material, and perform suitable teaching simulations.
