RECOMMENDED PREP – Review Alpine Assessment Guide
Looking to get a jump start on your ski instructing career, surrounded by like-minded pros? Ready to be inspired by outstanding leaders and discover new tools and ideas? Combined with Summit Academy and certification/specialist colleges, Eastern Academy gathers over 500 instructors, sponsors and leaders for five days of snowsports, education and camaraderie. Experience the biggest PSIA-AASI event in the East, if not the country!
At the Alpine Level I College, gain an understanding of the Learning Connection Model by exploring the Fundamentals (technical, teaching and people skills) in the beginner/novice zone. Through on-hill practice, peer-to-peer activities, teaching scenarios and group discussions, become familiar with the format, assessment criteria and activities prior to completing a Level 1 Assessment at the end of the week. Participants can expect the following format:
- Day 1-3: Participants are led through on-snow, educational content by an Eastern Education Staff member to support their readiness for a Level I Assessment.
- Day 4-5: Participants take part in a Level I Assessment
Snowsports school affiliation is highly recommended, and the training portion of the college can help to prepare those who are not yet employed at a resort or those with limited access to formal training. Participants should arrive prepared to be on snow for five days and able to ski safely on all green and blue terrain.
Participants must complete the online Alpine Level I eLearning Course prior to registering for the event. For more information about the Certification Standards, Performance Guide, and Assessment Forms, go to the PSIA-AASI Certification Resources.
On-snow activities are complemented by social happenings, including a cocktail and hors d’oeuvres party on Thursday, indoor presentations and more.
