Cat. F, typically after they complete AFF, which is Cat. A-E. You may also teach portions of the FJC, under the supervision of an AFF-I.

Generic portions of the FJC (anything but dive flow).

Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

Any student that has been cleared for self supervision (at the end of cat E) can do the rest of his/her A-license progression tasks with a USPA coach.

Most of the “Coach” responses I’ve seen posted here are with AFF training in mind. If you say that a Coach can only participate in the F, G, and H, with the Static Line progression that amounts to the last 6 skydives of 30 (5 static line, 25 free falls)

Look at the BSR 2-1-E-4 (c)

c. All students must jump under the direct supervision of an appropriately rated USPA Instructor until demonstrating stability and heading control prior to and within five seconds after initiating two intentional disorienting maneuvers involving a back-to-earth presentation. [E]

If this is the criteria, in a Static Line Progression once a student complies with this requirement a Coach could start working with them (under an Instructors supervision). The ISP may specify when these maneuvers are “typically” done, but I see no reason they couldn’t be worked in at an earlier stage of the training.

Experience is what you get when you thought you were going to get something else.
