I’ve got MIAS level 1 and 2, and if you are already confident with how to ride and bike and how to maintain a bike, it’s an easy course. What it really does is highlight things that’re common sense – like taking the right spares, considering other people, etc, etc. It’s a good course to do, and I’ll be doing Level 3 very soon.
I didn’t realise I’d need a IML certificate to guide in France,but there’s always Austria, Italy, Slovenia etc!
