The High Park Snow School recruits new instructors every season. We are looking for avid skiers/snowboarders who are eager to learn and share their passion with our members. Depending on some specific needs which vary from year to year, we may recruit a few or many instructors… but snowboard instructors are always in high demand!!
You can apply this spring if these criteria reflect your background/ability:
- recent CSIA Level 1 or 2 skier with HPSC Instructor Training (IT) course or CSIA Level 2 or 3 with teaching experience
- volunteer experience with the club
- being able to commit to all training sessions, teaching throughout the winter
- CASI Level 1 snowboarder
Not quite there yet? Plan ahead, as many of us have done, and you will not only improve your skills, but also be in a good position to apply to the Snow School. Here is how…
- keep taking lessons with our HPSC dedicated instructors
- become an active volunteer with the club
- if you are a skier, after reaching Step 7, sign up for Instructor Training (IT)
(this is a popular program, so make sure you check the Snow School page on the club
web site in the Fall and communicate with the IT course leader early) - take a trip or two with the club… nothing like mileage on those big hills!
- obtain your CSIA or CASI Level 1 and… you are ready to apply!!!

- email the Snow School Director of Alpine Skiing and Snowboarding at cmbellerose@gmail.com to request an application form in May
- complete the form and return it by June 15, 2019
