Poster: A snowHead
|
I was thinking of doing the BASI Level 1 course and have looked on the BASI website. It is not 100% clear. Am I correct in thinking that when it says 5 day course it is a course that is run in the daytime rather than the evening?
I was looking at the Manchester Chillfactor courses.
Any info welcome.
Thanks

Ski Babe, Always daytime, 9:00 - 5:00 is the norm.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

There were also evening classroom sessions on mine - I'd check with the course organiser.

I think you will find it is not a true BASI 1 anyway but a Indoor BASI 1 which only allows you to teach indoors. There is something about doing 35hrs "snow based work experience" but that includes working on the booking desk (I think)
Loads of info on the BASI website but ringing them is the real answer.

Jake43, no difference in the qualification you end up with whether you do the course in a dome or on a mountain. BASI's intent is that it's a licence for closed environments (dry slope/dome) but many ski schools in the Alps and elsewhere are happy to accept it for mountain teaching - presumably liability will be carried by these ski schools themselves.
