for CSIA level 1, theres no writtin test. all i did was ski half a day, read the book and watch movies the otehr half (for 2 days). level 2 has two parts, the skiing and written test that you have to pass.

CSIA Level 1 test for me was:
Demonstrate PERFECT snow plow turns
Demonstrate PERFECT intermediate parallel turns (not carved)
Demonstrate your own BEST skiing

And then teach a small class consisting of other people you took the course with. A course conductor watches you do this fake teaching (you might be teaching a bunch of instructiors how to snow plow) and passes you if you can communicate, demonstrate, analyze, and give feedback well on how everyone did.

Have to pass both skiing and teaching tests. We had horrible conditions on the hill, so a lot of people failed the skiing test. Maybe 2 people failed the teaching test. I think 7 out of the 35 passed the course in total.

when i did it they spent the first two days teaching you and the last day testing you. easy as shit. as long as your competent. they mainly look at attitude and how good of a teacher you are.

Yeah, that is why I only did it for a year, its not necessarily the money that is important, but I skied a lot LESS when I was an instructor...I wanted to do it to ski free, which was sweet, but you only skied for a couple hours every weekend.

We'll have you dead pretty soon.

you must have worked at a busy hill. Where i worked, you only got 1-2 lesson's a day and if you didn't like the student, you could pass it up.

PSIA Level 3 Certified and one of 4 in all of PSIA-E that has completed the Freestyle/Freeride Accredidation (program only started a couple years ago). I was out of Nashoba up until this year when I moved, I should be teaching out of Steamboat this year, but I haven't figured out if I wanted to just take a year to ski.

life is too short to have any regrets

I teach, but I'm not certified and don't plan to...it's too expensive and not really worth it to me. I do it to pay for my skiing and gas money, and also to help people enjoy the sport I love. Please, let's not hear any of the comments that all ski instructors are gay, because it's not true.
