ISIA Badge

Well, my ISIA badge came through the post this morning at last. That's probably of no interest to most readers but it's my blog so I'm tellig you anyway, since it took a lot of effort to get it. ISIA stands for International Ski Instructors Association, and the said association lay down minimum standards to achieve an ISIA level qualification. Meaning that the ISIA stamp or badge should be an equivalent internationally recognised qualification no matter which country you gain it in. It's taken three years and several thousand quid since passing my BASI Alpine Ski Instructor award, so you can understand I'm pretty happy.

I'm planning a more objective look at the various ski and snowboard qualifications in a future post, so watch out for that - I'll also cover how to become a ski instructor, as I am often asked this question.

  1. Tja JAN grattis till ISIA! Jag funderar starkt på att ta ISIA Examen men vet inte riktigt vad det innebär eller vad som behövs. VAr tog du din examen, sverige eller utomlands?

    det skulle vara väldigt snällt av dig om du kunde skriva tillbaka,
