NTSC Snowboard Instructor Apprentice Program

Our Snowboard Instructor Apprentice Program works with members who are interested in becoming snowboard instructors to develop an understanding of what it means to be a snowboard instructor and to prepare them to take their CASI Level 1 course.  Working with the Apprentice, we will develop an individual plan that includes shadowing our instructors during lessons for hands-on experience, rider development, and teaching training.

If you are interested in becoming an Apprentice, first check out the CASI website for more information about CASI 1 instructor course requirements, course dates/locations, and the CASI 1 Course Guide.  Then contact the NTSC Snowboard School, or talk with one of our senior snowboard instructors for more details about this NTSC program.

As the Apprentice Program is provided on a volunteer basis, our capacity to take on Apprentices is limited.  To be eligible for the Apprentice program, you must be an Advanced rider and be a member of NTSC for at least one year.  Additionally, we will be giving preferences to members who are able to commit to teaching with NTSC in the subsequent season.

A lot of your NTSC snowboard instructors are successful graduates of this program!
