We recommend this course for people who have either completed our 10 week level 1 course and/or have been working as a ski instructor for a season with their NZSIA Level 1, and want to gain their NZSIA level 2.
Level 2 NZSIA is a very high level qualification; to pass it requires a strong advanced level of skiing on and off piste, an excellent understanding of skier analysis and the ability to teach a high quality lesson. On the 4 week course you'll be focusing on progressing all of these qualities and more.
