Instructor Training Programme
This program offers one of the best opportunities to gain your NZSIA/SBINZ CSI and Stage 1 Qualifications, letting you instruct all of the way to high intermediate students. The first four weeks of the program are devoted to working on your own technique, to iron-out any bad habits or flaws. It is quite common for students at the start of their instructor programs to have their own style and not meet the “efficient” standards required by the examiner.
Along with this, during these sessions you can learn the correct terminology and instruction methods used to demonstrate the required skills, so every moment on the mountain will be a complete learning experience.
There are two main qualifications you will complete during this ski or snowboarding instructor programme – the NZSIA/SBINZ CSI and Stage 1.
