According to Randy Carlson, one of the co-chairs of the Coastal Kayaking
Committee, each of the five new areas will be a separate course and
requires a separate instructor course. For example, if you want to be
certified to teach the 8 hour ACA surf zone course, you must attend and
pass the surf zone certification class. 

I, too, am a little concerned about costs, having dropped about $600 on
the coastal IDW last week.
