This ACA Assessment Course is designed to evaluate a participant’s ability to perform the skills necessary to paddle in a coastal environment along with demonstrating an appropriate level of knowledge. This assessment course provides the participant with the opportunity to receive documentation of having achieved a certain level of paddling ability. It is expected that participants interested in pursuing this award will have participated in a minimum of three, full day journeys (e.g. longer than 8 nautical miles).
