7 WEEKS LEVEL 1 & 2 SNOWBOARD

From £5700

This intense, 7-week snowboard instructor course is the fastest  way to complete your Level 1 and 2 CASI instructor tickets.

Panorama has some of the best-advanced terrain in Canada and is perfect for more advanced boarders who want to tackle Level 1 and 2 in a relatively short time. During your course, you'll receive over 110 hours of dedicated Winter Sports coaching, which is only 30hrs less than the 11 week program. Also included are all CASI modules and exams for both Level 1 and 2, meaning there's absolutely no extra costs to pay. Extra days are included for shadow teaching with the ski school, as well as your AST 1 Avalanche Awareness course which helps provide you with the skills to safely go off-piste.

At the end of the course, there is an option to join an incredible Heli Day so that you can experience untracked deep powder boarding and put your new skills to the test.

What's included
The Trip

Flights
Courses can be booked with or without flights - enabling you maximum flexibility.
Flights depart from London, UK. Flights from alternative airports can be arranged, contact us for up to date prices.

Transfers
Outbound and return transfers are included as standard with all bookings, subject to arrival times if booking own flights.

Shared hotel accommodation
Prices are based on 2 sharing. We can accommodate couples and friendship groups upon request.
A limited number of single rooms are available for an additional £120 per week.

Meal Plan
Enjoy 4 group dinners per week at restaurants across the resort as well as a 15% discount at all resort-owned restaurants, bars and cafes.

Season lift pass
Your lift pass is season long, this means if you decide to add additional weeks your lift pass will be valid.
Lift pass benefits include discounts in selected shops and restaurants as well as on some activities, equipment rentals, maintenance and repairs.

Resort Representative
A rep is in the resort to oversee the course. Reps are knowledgeable about the resort, qualifications and training, and have often taken part in the course previously.

Training Package

Level 1 and 2 Training
110 hours of on snow training is provided by CASI level 3 & 4 instructors.

CASI Level 1 ski instructor exam
The level 1 CASI course and exam is included in the price. The course runs for 3 days with the first 2 days dedicated to instruction and the final day put aside for the on snow assessment.

CASI Level 2 Exams
The CASI Level 2 examinations take place over 4 days and are as much a course as an examination. The CASI evaluators will help to fine-tune both your boarding and teach technique, and are fantastic non-assessed courses. The 4 day exam is scheduled into your 7 weeks and included in the price, this can be removed should you wish to just train (-$600)

AST 1
Included in the course is the 2 1/2 day Canadian Avalanche Associations introductory course, which will help prepare you for the hazards associated with going off-piste.

Shadow Teaching
All participants have the opportunity and are encouraged to shadow the sports school on days off from pro-coaching. Shadowing real lessons helps prepare trainees for exams and provides observational experience in a mountain environment.

Heli-Boarding
At the end of the course, after the level 2 exams, an optional guided heli-skiing trip (cost £500) is arranged with RK Heli-ski. All heli-skiing equipment is provided and powder-pack including transceiver and other back-country equipment.

Visa Assistance & Guaranteed Work Interview
We have partnerships and connections with several sports schools across the world and offer a guaranteed interview with Panorama for the following season after the successful completion of your Level 2. We also provide two further guaranteed interviews at resorts in both Canada and Japan. Comprehensive advice and assistance is given to all Winter Sports clients when applying for working holiday visas.
