Snowboard and Ski Instructor Courses

There are recognised qualifications and courses on offer from a wide variety of training organisations that will suit budding ski and snowboarding instructors, or people who want to dramatically improve in their chosen sport. Some even promise guaranteed work on passing their courses so you can kill two birds with one stone.

Courses run from around 5 days in length for a basic qualification or a short period of intensive coaching, or up to 3 months for more comprehensive requirements and snowsports based gap years. Most British operators have large European programmes, and gap year options further afield in the USA, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. If you want to instruct professionally make sure your chosen course delivers an internationally recognised qualification.
