APSI E-Learning is Live
Our APSI training staff worked hard through our pre-season to build various E-Learning modules to help enhance the APSI on-snow products. They share their wealth of knowledge through level specific courses to help with your pre-training prior to courses and exams. There are also modules to help you with strength and conditioning for on-snow performance and injury prevention.
We are excited to introduce to you our Online Content program and channels.
Our vision for this program is “To add value to the membership during this particularly challenging season and to bring our APSI and Snowsports community together”
We aim to deliver content across areas such as building community, education, networking, and the frontline of your job as an instructor.
A new Nordic Skills day has been developed to help people who have limited nordic skiing experience attempt their Nordic Level 1 Certification. The Skiils day will work on your classical technique and prepare you for the Nordic Level 1 course.
The Skills day, courses and exams are on the calendar
The APSI continues to monitor the situation surrounding COVID-19. Operational conditions in the resorts are still restrictive and the APSI will not be able to offer its members Alpine, Snowboard or Adaptive, courses or exams, before early September. Nordic courses, Skiils Days and Exams are being run in Falls Ck and Perisher. A season with less work like this one is a perfect time to diversify your skill set and try a different way of sliding on snow.
