Start as a keen intermediate and progress to Canadian Association of Snowboard Instructors qualification as Snowboard Instructor Level 2 - a passport to winter job opportunities worldwide. The course is equally attractive if you simply want to improve your technical knowledge and ability on the slopes. We cover methods of detection and correction and help you to apply these to yourself as you learn the latest techniques.
You start with two weeks of snowboard skills training in preparation for the instructor course in your third week. You will develop good interpersonal skills and learn the specific CASI method for teaching the sport to beginners. The programme continues with a further two weeks of riding and improvement training, leading to the Level 2 Instructor assessment in your final week.
If you want to work in Canada as a non-resident immediately after an early-season course, you must arrange your work visa in advance. Use the Fish Essentials link above left for visa information. We provide 2-star budget accommodation, a dual-mountain lift pass which is valid six days a week, five days' guiding/instruction each week (four hours a day), video analysis, lift queue priority and equipment seminars.
