Program Overview

So you already have your CSIA Level 1 or international equivalent? And you want to go for the CSIA Level 2? Well you can with YES.

You will improve your skiing, teaching and people skills with the goal of reaching the Level 2 standard. You will also receive suggestions and strategies for your long-term development as a skier. At the end of the 3 week program you will take the CSIA Level 2 course and certification.

We recommend coming for 3 weeks to complete the training and examination but if your time is limited you may choose to come for 2 weeks – talk to us to understand whether that will work for you.

We can also put together a custom schedule for you if you can’t do all 3 weeks in one block – for example do 1 or 2 weeks of ski improvement early in the season, then come back later in the winter to do the exam prep and certification.

  • Week 1 – Ski Improvement – get you up to the standard
  • Week 2 – Level 2 training and exam modules
  • Week 3 – CSIA Level 2 training and exam

More Info

YES offers a range of accommodation options so you can choose your own experience. We have made some changes this season due to the COVID situation so all accommodation is only single room or twin share. We still have our chalets and condos, and this year we are including some hotel options.

We can also help you find a private rental suite or condo if that would suit you better, contact us for a quote.

  • CHALETS:  CATERED / SELF-CATERED:  Staying at these chalets you have the option of including 4 delicious dinners each week in the comfort of your house. There is also self-catering facilities in the chalet so if you prefer that option you can manage your own meals as you wish.
  • YES CONDOS: Located through the resort, we have 2 bedroom condos with a kitchen provided so you can make your own meals.
  • HOTELS:  CATERED / SELF-CATERED: We are offering accommodation packages at the very comfortable ski in/out Blackcomb Springs Suites. You can also upgrade to include 4 dinners / week if you chose, otherwise you can make your own meals in your hotel suite.
