I know a lot of folks have already seen a copy of this announcement, but those who have not I am reproducing a message from Vinnie Bradford: Coaches, Club Owners and Aspiring Coaches,
Information about the Oct 14-16 PAFA Coaching Development Seminar in San Antonio is now available.
This past season the USFCA Certification and Accreditation Board (CAB) has been working hard revising, strengthening and standardizing the certification exams and process. Revisions to the Moniteur exams will be available on the USFCA website soon followed closely by the Prevost revisions.
The October PAFA seminar will introduce student-coaches to the revised examination process and will focus the course content on the skills and knowledge that Moniteur Candidates must have to pass the exams. More Information Here

Is this the same bunch that hosted the seminar Grace went to a few months back, where she got her moniteur accreditation?

Yes. Vinnie is a GREAT coach and a great person to work with. I learned to fence with her and I also got my Monietur via her course. It is WELL worth the money and time to go to this!!!

Yes, this is the same seminar Grace went to for her accreditation. I got my Moniteur in Epee and Sabre there, too. Vinnie did a great job in organizing it, and the other instructors were interesting and informative. You'll not be disappointed.

I have actually attended 3 seminars at Palo Alto. The first one I attended over a year ago was overwhelming since I was new to coaching. However, the last two were absolutely fantastic. I would openly encourage anyone interested in learning more about coaching to attend. Truthfully, each seminar I have attended is progressively more enlightening than the one before it, possibly because I understand more as time goes by. The absolute best thing about the last semiar was the training offered on how to teach groups of people to fence. From what I understand, the new seminar should be even better! So, if you can go... GO!
