General Information
WE AWAIT THE DIRECTIVE FROM CASI HEAD OFFICE IN MONTREAL FOR THE FINAL DETAILS OF THIS COMING SEASON'S CASI COURSES. PLEASE CONTACT THE UK OFFICE IF YOU WISH TO BE UPDATED ON DEVELOPMENTS FOR THE CASI COURSES.
The Canadian Association of Snowboard Instructors (CASI) was formed in
1994 and incorporated in 1995. It is the professional snowboard teaching
and coaching body in Canada with its Head Office located in Montreal,
Quebec.
The aim of CASI is to train and certify snowboard instructors
and coaches and to ensure that a national standard of safe and
efficient snowboard instruction is maintained to serve the Canadian snowboarding
public and the ski/snowboarding industry.
In Canada CASI offers four levels of instructor certification.
In Andorra this season we have scheduled two levels.
 |
Helmets are mandatory on all other courses and programs. |
Level 1
This is an
entry level program designed to introduce prospective snowboard instructors
to the basic teaching and riding skills used at the beginner, novice
and intermediate levels of riding.
Level 1 covers the teaching progression for introductory snowboarding.
Prerequisites:
* 15 years of age on the first day of the
course
* able to demonstrate comfortable and safe riding skills on intermediate
terrain.
This course has also been approved by EFPEM as an 'alternative
discipline' for Andorran certification.
