Wearing a correctly fitted bicycle helmet helps prevent traumatic brain injury and death for people of all ages. Florida regional helmet trainers volunteer their time to teach classes to train others how to properly fit bicycle helmets. In turn, those who attend helmet fitter training participate in education and outreach events around Florida helping children and adults learn how to fit their bicycle helmets. If you enjoy teaching, why not become a regional helmet trainer and make a difference!
To become a Florida Regional Helmet Trainer:
1. Become a helmet fitter and participate in local events.
2. Team up with a regional helmet trainer in your community.
3. Co-teach at least two classes with 5 or more students with your regional helmet trainer.
4. Get recommended by your regional helmet trainer partner. Submit your recommendation to ftsrc@ce.ufl.edu.
5. Submit the application and contact information forms.
Upon completion your name will be added to the regional training list and you will receive the instructional helmet fitting PowerPoint.
Important Certification Notice:
Regional trainers– you must notify the FTSRC when you hold a class so that we can provide certificates. Providing the information electronically rather than a faxed in sheet helps ensure that your students receive a certificate with the correct name on it at the correct email address.
