Ski Instructor - SHREDUCATION Programs

YES offers the widest range of instructor training programs in the world. We have been in the Ski Instructor training business for over 20 years and have certified over 3,000 clients. When choosing your GAP year or career break program it is important to ensure that you are gaining not only the right certifications, but the right training and inclusions that suit your desires and goals. YES is so much more than just a program, its a community!

Our Instructor Programs include the training and methodology set by the Canadian Ski Instructors Alliance (known as CSIA). YES has been working in partnership with Whistler Blackcomb for over 20 years and has a reputable and proven track record of training each student to a high CSIA Instructor standard. Our goal is to get you beyond the standard expected by the CSIA so that you are fully prepared for your exam. Skiing is only 50% of the exam – the other 50% is teaching, so you need to be able to demonstrate your ability in both areas. Our professional CSIA Level 4 Instructors will take you back to basics to give you a strong foundation and then incorporate the Canadian technique into your skiing to ensure that you are demonstrating the required technique to pass your exam with flying colors.

4 Week - Ski Instructor Course

At YES we are excited to offer four 4 week courses throughout the 2018/2019 season. To view prices and accommodation options scoll to the bottom of the page!

Overview

Our 4-week ski instructor program provides training towards the CSIA Level 1 certification. You will go through two weeks of ski improvement to prepare you for the examination in the third week. This course also includes the super fun and informative Recreational Avalanche Course in the forth week.

Improve your interpersonal skills, become a better communicator and increase your technical knowledge as you advance your skiing to new heights! You will learn how to assess and develop skiers in various teaching and tactics. Program includes technical seminar, on-going assessment of your skiing progress and a personalized evaluation each week from one of our qualified Level 4 Pro’s.

What Level of skier do I need to be? As long as you are linking turns on a blue run (low intermediate) we can accept you on the course and turn you into a ski god or goddess!
