Become a Regional Trainer
Wearing a correctly fitted bicycle helmet helps prevent traumatic brain injury and death for people of all ages. Florida regional helmet trainers volunteer their time to teach classes to train others how to properly fit bicycle helmets. In turn, those who attend helmet fitter training participate in education and outreach events around Florida helping children and adults learn how to fit their bicycle helmets. If you enjoy teaching, why not become a regional helmet trainer and make a difference!

- Become a helmet fitter and participate in local events. Gain experience fitting helmets.
