 Poster: A snowHead
|
After doing my level 1 in the Uk I am now looking to do my level 2. I intend to go to Uni this year so ideally I would love to do it at Christmas when I have a four week holiday.
I have looked briefly on the internet for courses but to no avail, I am looking for an all inclusive deal. If any of you snowheads have any info. for me that would be great.
Thanks in advance,
Jamie

Surfsuperstar, all the BASI courses are listed on the BASI website. NewGen are running a L2 course 7-18 December.

Surfsuperstar, do you have a reading week in October, or late Jan? I used to have uni hols around those times, see if there are any courses running then.

Surfsuperstar, you won't find any "all inclusive" deals for level 2 - it's not how this stuff works. You book the course through BASI or the partner and will then need to sort out your own travel, accommodation, food and lift pass.

Sorry to be negative, but FFS exactly how difficult is it for you to select two items from two drop down boxes - Alpine / Alpine Level 2 Instructor - especially when someone has given you a direct link for the courses page.
You give me the sense that you're treating this as a package holiday - not a professional course.

FlyingStantoni, How nicely put!!! I am rather busy and stressed at the moment with exam results coming out, planning a 'proffesional course' as it may be is pushed out of my mind!!!
I do indead understand that it is not a package holiday, I can go skiing any time I want in the winter due to my location. However as I am only 18 planning accomodation, lift passes and flights is rather hard!!
beanie1, Thanks I will look for something like that as I can't see any courses that overlap my holidays. I guess it gets too busy in the resorts.

Surfsuperstar, where are you planning on going to university and what do you plan to study there? As a matter of interest.

Surfsuperstar, you could wait until next summer and do level 2 on the glacier in Hintertux, course usually end july-early august.
It won't be up on the BASI schedule for a while though.
Good luck with the degree.....fingers crossed for your A level results due tomorrow?

Hurtle, AAA for sure.
Surfsuperstar has probably already got something like 7 A* and 2 A plus a history of helping out in hospitals etc for at least 2 years.
Incredibly difficult to get into these days.

Hurtle, Its not ''highly'' thought of but I didnt get an offer from St ANdrews which is thought of as the best.
rungsp, I got AAAB in Chem, Bio, maths and the B in Physics. I was over the moon on thurs.  Also thanks for the idea about Hinterlux.
Did anyone else get A level results?
