EA Ski & Snowboard Training want you to have the best season possible this winter. We have a program manager who oversee the running of our instructor courses who are easily contactable and there to offer advice and support at all times. Not only are they familiar with Lake Louise itself, but they also work for the ski school and will be a familiar face to make your gap year and first winter season that much easier.
Our Internships and instructor courses allow you to obtain a globally recognised qualification with either the CSIA (Ski) or CASI (Snowboard).
Both the CISA and CASI have internationally recognised ski associations and are the governing bodies for ski/snowboard instructor qualifications in Canada. CASI and CSIA teaching qualifications are highly regarded in the industry and a qualification with the Canadian system will build your technical understanding and allow you to effectively instruct skiing or snowboarding.
Remember that if you are taking a plus internship, the level 2 course fees are not included as not everyone chooses to sit these.
