All on-snow training + workshops are delivered exclusively by current BASI (British Association of Snowsport Instructors) examiners well-versed in training and assessment courses.

Our trainers undergo a rigorous selection process. They must possess current BASI trainer status, advanced skiing and teaching skills, holding the highest BASI Level 4 ISTD (International Ski Teacher Diploma) certification, which includes passing numerous technical, teaching, and mountain safety exams.

Trust our training. We’ve put together a tried and tested program of technical and teacher training. You need to attend all the training sessions and workshops. We always aim to train you above the required standard.

• The assessment criteria for the BASI level 1 course can be found here

You will have regular benchmark sessions to see how you are getting on against the level before any assessments.

We’ve put together a packing list you can print off at home, check that out here.

We’ve partnered with UK outdoor sports store Fluid Lines and assembled an equipment package. Essential items include:

• Ski’s, Boots, Poles, Goggles, Backpack and Helmet

You have private access to their professional prices through our partnership. A private link will be emailed to you after your booking is confirmed. You can either buy the package or individual items. A full list of equipment will be emailed to you prior to the course start.

Not on this course, there are different rates depending on your age so you book this directly with the ski pass office in Morzine or Avoriaz. You can purchase these online at the Morzine site here or the Avoriaz site here

Normally substantial savings can be made at the pre-sale rates until September. For example, a Full Portes du Soleil winter pass for those under 25 is €459 in the pre-sale.

There are two key things to consider:

• Your working rights (what passport you hold and where you wish to work)

• Your qualification recognition

A really good resource for answering these points is found here

We have partnerships with ski schools around the Alps that will accept your BASI Level 2 qualification.

The winter intake finishes just before the February half-term, so you could be straight into working a full week post-course! We will hold career workshops throughout the course to prepare and advise you on job/industry opportunities in Europe and the Southern Hemisphere. Info on where you can work can be found here.

We expect students to confidently link parallel turns down a red run in all conditions. You will be trained and assessed on green, blue and red runs. And bumps, steep slopes and off-piste terrain. If you’re unsure or a little nervous about your ability - that’s ok! Book a call with us and we can share video footage of minimum levels if you have any video footage of your skiing we can also analyse this.
