There are a lot of qualified instructors from other organizations that have not taken NASA's Instructor clinic...some of them could probably teach it

just as i don't trust the work of others (inherent in my job), nasa should not trust the qualification of such people by other sanctioning bodies.

I somewhat agree with Mike here. When a nurse moves from one state to another she must pass certain tests in order to get certified to be a nurse in that new state, the same goes for a real estate agent. I don't doubt that many of these instructors have the knowledge and experience to be one, but they don't have it in our environment. I think there should be some sort of testing that's done to makesure they are aware of how we do things.

Not that I don't agree but thankfully Instructors are NOT my area. Babysitting the racers and HPDE'rs is plenty enough work for me.
