Is this course right for you?
The PSIC Level 1 is a Professional Ski Instructor training course aimed at building and training
instructors. Previous teaching experience is not required for this introductory course, however,
safety is a top priority! For the safety of all participants and effectiveness of the course, you
should already be able to confidently ski green runs in parallel and safely navigate blue
(intermediate) groomed runs to participate.
