Elevate Your Skiing with Our 3-Week Ski Instructor Course

Our 3-week ski instructor course is designed to take your skiing to the next level while preparing you for your PSIC or CSIA Level 1 instructor exam. Guided by top examiners, we provide expert training to enhance both your personal skiing technique and your teaching ability, all in a fun, supportive environment.

We start by assessing your skiing technique, pinpointing areas for improvement, and celebrating your strengths. Through focused feedback, we tailor your training to match your goals. Learn from the best with our team of experienced examiners, who bring valuable insights to every session. They will guide you through various drills and challenges whilst also sharing the very best spots in Whistler, making the most of the snow and terrain.
