FICS ICSC Instructors
FICS ICSC
Instructor Pool
The international pool of ICSC instructors gives candidates a truly global perspective on sports chiropractic. Athletes from different regions often expect different approaches to care, and this diverse education helps prepare sports chiropractors to work effectively in a wide range of sporting environments worldwide.
ICSC Instructor Levels
Our global instructor network spans three levels of expertise, bringing together internationally recognised sports chiropractors with extensive experience working at elite sporting events worldwide.
Level 1
Through a modern hybrid learning model, FICS combines online theory education with hands-on practical seminars, delivering accessible, high-quality training to members across the globe. To uphold excellence in education, FICS maintains a structured instructor ranking system that recognises expertise, leadership, and excellence in ICSC teaching, ensuring members receive the highest standard of evidence-informed sports chiropractic education.
Instructors in training are taken through a range of self-directed learning to introduce them to the ICSC content, course objectives and training methods. Once they have completed their online training, they will participate in a one-on-one session with the Education Commission Chair before being appointed to a seminar, working under a Master instructor. Once an instructor has attended and assisted at both an upper and lower extremity seminar and has received positive marks (4 or higher) on the self, peer and participant evaluation form, the instructor will be eligible to move to an assistant instructor.
Level 2
Assistant Instructors will be given a range of modules to deliver during a seminar. Once an assistant instructor has met all the requirements of that level and has received positive marks (4 or higher) on the self, peer and participant evaluation form, they will be considered for a Master Instructor.
Level 3
Master Instructor is a Sports Chiropractor who has extensive lecturer experience, working at international games, sound communication, and expertise across all the ICSC subject matter and can train other instructors at hands-on seminars. The Master Instructor must do everything in his power to promote the highest standard of the educational material, lead by experience with the values of FICS and will often act as a mentor.
