What is the PASA instructor class like? Is there homework after class? Is it difficult to pass?

I'm planning on going to the class in Grand Caymen in November and wondering if I will have the time or energy to play after class everyday. My thinkin is if I'm going to spend thousands to go I want to play also, or i'll just wait for the hood river class instead.

Thanks....

honestly when I took it a few years back....not that taxing at all...I personally was not that impressed. If I were looking for certification again, I would definitely veer towards IKO....just my opinion....

in answer to your question, they were long days, but it certainly wasn't taxing....homework? there's a big long book that you're supposed to read and learn, but it is all complete common sense as is the exam at the end.

again...it's been 3 years since I did it, so may have changed
