You have your CASI level 1 and need a bigger fix!
It has been a challenging couple months in the Snow Rehab boardroom along with the Big White Snow Sports Director, putting together courses that nobody else is offering and many of you want. A lot of snowboard instructors who already have their CASI level 1 cert get into the routine of working and don't find (or make) the time for their next fix...a level 2 CASI certification. This course is dedicated to training you for exactly that. You will enjoy accommodations, training, meals and socialising during a 6 week course focused on your level 2 certification success. Unlike many resorts, the lift lines here are short, so you will get more on-snow time to help obtain the highest success rate possible. At the end of each day you can ski to the pub, the market, the pizza take away, and then back to your door. You just can't beat that!
You will be trained by a dedicated team of snowboard instructors who are an integral part of Snow Rehab's Team. The focus will be to help every participant obtain success while having fun – that's what this is all about after all! Your success will help you to move up in the snow sports industry, and it will prepare you to deal with all types of challenges you encounter during your career. We're not guaranteeing that you will be head hunted by ski schools world-wide, however, by training with Snow Rehab at Big White, you will leave with an awesome reference to help you seek employment at a variety of mountains.

Once you have your Level 2 snowboard instructor qualification you will be able to apply for work in the United States, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Argentina, Japan and Europe, wherever you want to teach! If you show good skills and an excellent attitude, you might get the opportunity to join the Team at Big White!
