Getting a job after the course...

YES has very close links with the Whistler Blackcomb snowboard school. So once you've passed your exams YES can help you out with an intro and before you know it you'll be teaching for real.

If you are thinking about working after the course please note that you must have a valid work visa. For more information on visas click here. Please note YES cannot guarantee employment.

Welcome to Whistler...

All our instructor courses are based in Whistler, Canada. It's an awesome resort that you'll never want to leave. For more information on Whistler take a look at our resorts page.

Is the course for me?

As long as you can get down a blue run (in North America/Australia or a red run in Europe) then you are a good enough rider. You don't have to be able to do it in stlye we'll take care of that when you get here.

As for who does the course, the short answer is anybody. Whether you've just finished school, taking a gap year or taking a career break you'll be right at home with YES. If this sounds like you then you can book now or if you want more information then email us your questions and we'll answer them.

Are the instructors any good?

They are the best in the business and we guarantee that you'll agree with us once you've spent a day riding with them. But if that's not enough to convince you here's what some of our past guests said:

“I believe Yuki is the best technical advisor and course structured personality I have had in 11 years of riding. Her lessons are fun, well planned, and easy to apply. I improved more than I thought I would.”
Beau Weyers Brisbane, Australia

“Rob did an excellent job of keeping everyone engaged, working on exercises and making sure no one was neglected. I cannot recommend Rob highly enough."
Hersh Ghandi
