	Contacts in Training       Who do I contact in the various organisations regarding training questions and when should I contact my MYA and not Yachting Australia?    First Aid Certificates       When Yachting Australia specifies "First Aid Certificate" what do they mean exactly?    Safety and Sea Survival certification and re-validation           Can I get a State Boat Licence with a Yachting Australia Qualification?       Each Maritime Jurisdiction has a requirement for the issue of Powerboat licences. Yachting Australia does not issue State based licences, however a number of jurisdictions have recognised some Yachting Australia qualifcations for the issuing of licences. Licensing is controlled by each individual Maritime Authority and therefore any information that is shown on this website should be confirmed with the State Maritime Authority.    Overseas Qualifications       I hold a qualification other than the RYA ones, can I teach in Australia?    Members of the RVCP       I have been told that I do not need to pay my accreditation fee as I am member of the RVCP or Coastguard, is this correct?    Club Members       I am a Yachting Australia member through an affiliated Yacht Club, do I have to pay my instructor accreditaion fee?    Updating qualifications in MySailor       How to get your qualifications updated in MySailor    Why can't I find information about the TL courses       Each of the National Training Schemes is now referred to by their name, not their TL number.    New Instructors       I have received a renewal form yet I only qualified a few weeks ago, what am I renewing?    Out of date Instructors       My qualifications are out of date, what does this mean?    Instructor Registration       Why should I pay my Instructor Registration fee? What do I get for it?    STCW 95       I have heard of a qualification called the STCW 95. Can I get this endorsement in Australia and where can I find out more information?    I have heard that the SSSC may be GST exempt, is this right?       Read the private ruling from the ATO regarding the Yachting Australia Safety and Sea Survival Course and GST. More information from www.ato.gov.au    What is the difference between an Instructor and a coach?           Complaints Procedure       How Yachting Australia deals with complaints regarding training is documented at this link
