Live the Snowboard Instructor Dream.

We provide snowboard instructor internships together with Whistler Blackcomb Snowboard School University (WBSSU) designed to prepare you for a career as a Snowboard Instructor.

By passing your CASI Level 1 instructor exams and complete the training program, there’s also the potential to gain a paid instructor job in Canada with the WB Snow School – subject to a post-internship interview process. Please note that everybody who has completed the WBSSU internship with ALLTRACKS has been successful in going on to work as an instructor for Whistler.

If you think you have got what it takes to do our snowboard instructor internship – whether it’s for one season as a sabbatical from work or gap year, or if you are considering career in the mountains, please get in touch.
