hey Pat ,
Is the Rapid response system a level structure like Rapid Arnis,as in you learn one level then progress to next level and so on.
or is the system just one level as such?

Yes and no Shocked It can be learn't in one course, but to become proficient and to gain instructor level you would need to attend around 3 courses, show that you can teach the material profficiently and effectively. But some maybe able to get to this level at a quicker rate depending on how fast they digest the material.

There are 3 levels of Instructor in Rapid Response.

Level 1 which means you are authorise to teach the material the standard required level.

So far we have Paul Smith, Scott Marshall, Rory Hunter, Clinton Jones who are all authorised Level 1 Instructors.

Level 2 which means you can now teach to a profficent level, eg. to Security Staff etc.

Level 3 which means you can now authorise and pass candidates to Level 1 Instructor.

Then Cheif instructor level, only this level can authorise level 2 and 3 Instructors in the Rapid Response System.

Hope that helps

I would say just about the same time as you go for your Junior Instructor Grading at the next camp Twisted Evil

But for those not well versed I would say about a year of teaching it should bring up to a good level in your teaching methods of the system and therefore would have no problem reaching level 2.
