Instructor/Staff Availability for November HPDS at Thunderhill
BMW CCA - Golden Gate Chapter - HPDE
Jul 31, 2020 - Aug 9, 2020
<p>Instructor, staff, and student safety are top priorities in GGC programs. If GGC holds its annual fall track school at Thunderhill, it will look very different. To tackle the challenges of COVID-19, we’re planning several changes, including: no in-car instruction, outdoor classrooms, contact-free check-ins and waivers, and other social distancing protocols.</p>
<p>In-car instruction may be on hold for a bit. Even if you prefer to wait until 2021 before resuming instruction, please answer the questions about instruction methods.</p>
<p>We’d appreciate if you could take 2 minutes to share your feedback through the survey below.<br />

<p style="text-align:center"><strong>Highlights of the Current Risk Mitigation Plan</strong></p>
<p>Driving instructors will use lead/follow instruction, with some data coaching.</p>
<ul>
<li>Lead/follow format for less experienced students will be 1-on-1</li>
<li>Lead/follow format for A/B will have each instructor lead a small pack of students, until students are signed off for open lapping</li>
<li>For A, B, & S we'll expand the use of data-based coaching</li>
</ul>
<p>Prior to the event, web-based seminars will be available for both lead/follow instruction and data coaching.</p>
<p>The classrooms will be open-air, underneath the shade structures in the paddock. For the data coaching classroom, plexiglass sneeze guards will be used to mitigate risk for coaches/students working together.</p>
<p>Check-in protocols will be modified to eliminate passing paper/pens/helmets back and forth. The process will be electronic and contact-free.<br />
<br />
Face coverings will be mandatory.<br />
<br />
Anyone with recent symptoms or recent exposure to anyone with a confirmed diagnosis must skip the event.<br />
