The Best Ski Training and Snowboard Instructor Courses

Snow Trainers hires only the best ski and snowboard coaches. Our coaches are Trainers and Examiners for the NZSIA / SBINZ (New Zealand) and the PSIA / AASI (USA). We believe it is important for our students to be trained by the actual coaches who run the certification exams and decides who makes the grade. 

Your trainers have many years of experience both instructing and training students to become instructors. They know what you need for the exams and also what’s required in the real world of instructing. All of the above factors result in a fantastic and fun learning environment where students will excel in learning how to ski and snowboard. 

That's why we have such a high pass rate!

 

World Class Qualifications

The New Zealand and USA instructor qualifications are highly regarded and recognized around the world. Many of our instructors work in Europe, North America, Australia, Japan, and New Zealand. Our graduates who decide to pursue their career as instructors, all have been able to use their skills and qualifications attained during their training with Snow Trainers to secure jobs in the industry. Our students get to fulfill their dream of teaching others how to ski and snowboard!

 

Help Finding Your Dream Job

We believe it is important for individuals to find their dream job. We encourage individuals to take a gap year (career break), because this will help that individual to find what they truly want to do with their career. Taking a gap year can be one of the most important decisions you will make in your life. 

This is a year that you will remember, so make sure it is a unique and worthwhile experience! Snow Trainers believes if you enroll in our course, you are sure to improve your skills, learn new abilities, have a great time, and meet life-long friends as well!

Once the course has finished and our students know how to ski and snowboard, we provide information and guidance to help our students find their dream job. We have a great network of connections all around the world to help you begin training at a fantastic resort the following winter.
