Ski & Snowboard Instructor Courses

Snow Challenge ski and snowboard instructor courses are run in Panorama Mountain Resort in the beautiful Canadian Rockies.

We have 4 durations, 3 choices of accommodation and a 100% pass rate.

Above all this we can provide our courses at the most competitive prices on the market.

How can we do this?

By being the first course provider in our chosen resort and employing our own high level instructors. We have two of the best instructors in Canada as Technical Directors and our relationship with Panorama is first class allowing us access to the same deals and facilities as top level race teams.

Class sizes are restricted to ensure you get all the attention you need and we have regular video and feedback sessions to keep everyone on top of their development.

Durations.

17 week – For those who want to do a full season. You’ll arrive 3 days after the resort opens and your course ends the day after the resort closes. Complete the level 1, 2 and 3; arrive as a novice leave as an instructor or mix and match our courses to become a dual certified instructor or instructor and ski patroller. (see bottom of page)

12 and 13 week – Our most popular courses which cover all the training and backup you’ll need to succeed in becoming a great instructor and a fantastic rider.

9 week – Only available without first aid, avalanche course and day trips (bookable in resort) due to the duration and timing This course allows you to arrive within the first few days of the season and work towards your level 1 and 2 qualifications. The level 2 is taken the week before half term and just in time for the busy period.

By popular demand we have combined our ski instructor course and ski patrol course. There are 3 options 12, 13 and 17 weeks in duration depending on the amount of instructor training you require. These combined courses fill very quickly and should be booked early to avoid disappointment.

Class sizes are restricted on all courses to ensure you get all the attention you need and we have regular video and feedback sessions to keep everyone on top of their development.

We give 5 days of instruction a week for 4 to 5 hours a day, not the standard 4 days a week found on most other courses.
