The Dream in Canada

Are you ready to ski harder, stronger, better and faster? Good. We are confident Draft Punk would approve. That’s why Snowminds offers you our Level 2 CSIA ski instructor course, where you now have the opportunity to shred like like a pro and receive two instructor educations within a single winter season. When combined with our 3 week ski instructor course in Canada, you can now quickly go from a beginner to a highly-competent ski instructor with advanced certification on your very first winter season abroad. This is your perfect chance to double-down and level-up! 

The Training

Due to high demand, you can now become a Level 2 instructor half-way through your very first season in Canada. For maximum convenience, the training program takes place at your ski school destination, where you will receive a 7-day technical training course in January with our most highly-competent instructors we know and trust.

Through 2 weeks of personalized instruction, you can expect significant individual feedback on your ski technique and style. With such constructive feedback and intense training, we have watched our instructors’ technique and abilities soar. The training course culminates with the 5-day Canadian Level 2 Exam in February, where you will be prepared to crush in your sleep. With a new advanced CSIA Level 2 certification in hand, our Snowminds team will help you take advantage of many exciting job opportunities for highly-competent ski instructors around the world.
