Beware of imposters: Here is how to identify an IKO Instructors

As the sport grows, new situations may be encountered. Because IKO is established internationally as a company reflecting quality and safety, many individuals will falsely claim that they are an IKO Instructor. A good way to spotting the fakes, is that only valid members appear in the community. Expired Instructors will also not appear under the community site, as they no longer hold the right to certify you.

It is of paramount importance to make sure you are being taught by a valid pro-member to ensure the safety of the course and the certification at the end of the course. The paper certification is not enough, you should receive an email confirmation to be able to rank your Instructor and activate your level online if you lose the card.

Claim an issue

It is important that your IKO membership is still valid to be eligible for new member deals, eCourses, and the certifications of your students!

Check out if you are still valid
