"This certification is authorized for use by those who have not yet become invested Master Guides. It is intended to provide a strong foundation for someone who will be serving a local Pathfinder club as an honor or Investiture Achievement instructor. (This is NOT anything like the old PIA which was focused on training adults to train other adults.) Ideally the seminars should be taken before the staff member actually takes up their duties. The field work would be done during their first year as an instructor. This certification was approved by the NAD Pathfinder Committee in 2011 for piloting with action PA 2011.03 and in 2013 for adoption with action PA 2013.08."
