Nordic Assessment Prerequisites

Preparing for Level II

• Level II Certification is a two-day process. 
• You must be at least a PSIA-AASI Level I certified member in any discipline.
• A prerequisite course must be taken in the season that you are taking your Level II Assessment.

The prerequisites for the Level II Assessment can be your choice of any of the upgrades/specialty events, movement analysis, teaching, personal skiing improvement and off-piste skiing. Or you can attend an Assessment (Exam) Prep Clinic. This course will review situations and activities that will be used in the skiing, teaching, professional knowledge and written sections. It is a great place to ask questions about the standards and what will be expected of you. The Assessment (Exam) Prep Clinic is specifically suggested for members who are certified in another discipline but haven’t participated in any Telemark event prior to the prerequisite course.

You should be prepared with questions and specific needs that will help you meet the national standards. At the beginning of this event each individual is surveyed for their own needs and then the clinic outline for the two days is dictated by that. A broad overview of the exam is also included.
