 Please Mention Yacht Force when applying for this course, for more information or to apply for this course please click here. 


The Winter Olympics are to be held at Whistler in February 2010. Don't miss the chance to be part of this tremendous season. 

Eligible for UK Armed Forces resettlement funding for service leavers.

You can start as a keen intermediate and progress to Canadian Association of Snowboard Instructors qualification as Snowboard Instructor Level 2 - a passport to winter job opportunities worldwide. 

The course is also attractive if you simply want to improve your technical knowledge and ability on the slopes. We cover methods of detection and correction and help you to apply these to yourself as you learn the latest techniques.

You start with two weeks of snowboard skills training in preparation for the instructor course in your third week. You will develop good interpersonal skills and learn the specific CASI method for teaching the sport to beginners. 

The programme continues with a further four weeks of riding and improvement training, leading to CASI Level 2 Instructor.

If you want to work in Canada as a non-resident immediately after an early-season course, you must arrange your work visa in advance. Use the Fish Essentials link above left for visa information.

We provide multi-share, 2-star Budget accommodation with bunk rooms in Creekside, a dual-mountain lift pass which is valid six days a week, five days' guiding/instruction each week (four hours a day), video analysis, lift queue priority and equipment seminars. 

You can also book more comfortable, 3-star Standard accommodation in Creekside, where you stay in a twin room.
