Ski Instructor Courses

Passing a ski instructor course doesn't normally guarantee a job. But if you do manage to get employment instructors normally get a decent wage, a free lift pass and a great opportunity to hone your abilities. Formalised instruction methods and teaching principles are at the heart of all good courses, especially in France, it used to be like Olympic qualification to get an instructors award but things have improved dramatically over the past decade or so. Most are designed to give you the qualifications you need to work anywhere in the world but it is essential to check the credentials of the school or camp you are considering attending.
