Becoming a Member
Turn your passion into your profession:
If you live for winter and simply can’t help yourself from sharing your love of snowsports with others, PSIA-AASI membership can help you bring together your passion and the highest professional standards to create more meaningful experiences as a snowsports instructor anywhere you may work.
Community:
As a member, you join a community of instructors who share your commitment to being the best at what you do. You will learn from professional athletes and teachers during dryland and on-hill education clinics and during certification exams. Your membership dues enroll you as a member in both PSIA-AASI National AND Central Divisions. You’ll interact with fellow instructors throughout the division and the country to share best practices, tactics and teaching techniques for lessons that ROCK!
Advancement:
As you improve your personal skiing/riding and understanding of the sport you will become more valuable to your snowsport school employer, translating to higher employment and wages for you. PSIA-AASI credentials are valued and portable worldwide and serve as a passport to work across the globe.
Teaching and Professional Excellence:
But the benefits of membership don’t end at the slopes. The personal and professional development you experience will be applicable in your “real job” as well. Could you benefit from:
- Improved personal and professional communication skills,
- Organizational skills, working with groups and individuals as a member of a team,
- Learning to work well with others from all walks of life – from children to seniors to those with special needs?
