About RYA Recognition Changing your centre’s recognition
RGN A8 A8.1 Change of Principal or Chief Instructor
The RYA must be informed of any change of Principal or Chief Instructor(s). The Principal should do this by submitting a Change of Principal form (form reference CP) with the details of the new staff. Where changes have a significant impact on the continuity of the senior management team of the Recognised Training Centre (RTC), recognition may be suspended until the centre has been inspected. An additional inspection fee will be charged if this is separate to the annual inspection.
If a Chief Instructor position is vacant, recognition for the relevant scheme will be suspended pending a suitable Chief Instructor being appointed. A suitably qualified Principal may also act as Chief Instructor. A Change of Recognition form (form reference CR1) must be submitted to inform RYA Training of the new Chief Instructor.
An RTC may be required to complete a full application process where there are significant changes to the management or ownership of the centre.
A8.2 Adding courses
RTCs wishing to extend their recognition to additional courses or training schemes must submit a change of Recognition form (form reference CR1) and the relevant Recognition Details form(s) for the additional courses being applied for.
If the extra courses fall under a scheme covered by inspection, and the equipment and/or operating area requirements differ to those inspected under the centre's existing recognition, an inspection will be required before recognition is extended. Wherever possible this will be done during the annual inspection and centres should make every effort to submit the application in a timely manner to enable appropriate inspectors to be allocated. If an extra inspection is required an inspection fee will be payable.
Example: A centre currently offering the Powerboat scheme up to Level 2 would need an extra inspection to assess the suitability of the training vessel and the operating area before becoming recognised to offer the Powerboat Advanced course.
A8.3 Removing courses
The Principal should complete a Change of Recognition form (form reference CR1) to inform RYA Training of any courses no longer offered in order to ensure accuracy information held and promoted to the public.
