JIB WITH THE BIG WHITE POSSE!
Snowboarding has to be one of the most social sports around these days. It attracts people from all walks of life and they all seem to have the same mentality. Big White has a huge snowboarding community. You'll either find them riding rails and getting air in Telus Park, in some of the awesome tree lines to be found or out in the natural playground Big White has to offer.
Snow Rehab has chosen Big White for a CASI Level 1 & 2 snowboarding instructor course so you get to enjoy more than just a course. We have chosen snowboard instructors that have been riding at Big White for years to make sure you will only be taught by the best to help you become the best. The snowboard coaches focus is to help 100% of our students achieve their certification with top results! We cannot promise success, but with the daily dedicated training on all types of terrain, you will be prepared to come out the other end of the course qualified to teach others!
If you are still reading this then you are interested in taking one of the courses out there. Many of our competitors will tell you how hard it is to organise a course and that you need experience. We have buckets of experience in the snow sports industry, and feel we should let you know that along with our addiction to snow, we have an addiction to giving our clients the ultimate value for money. Let's just say that we have been lucky enough to have many seasons of experience behind us, now its your turn!
Nobody but you can make this happen. What Snow Rehab promises is that along with the Snowboarding pros who will train you at Revelstoke, you will get the best industry career advice to help you gain employment once you earn your qualifications. Check out the CASI qualifications to see where you can work when you are qualified.
