How To Join

Determine which ski area you would like to be employed by as an instructor. PSIA divisions can help you determine which snowsports schools in your geographic area are PSIA member schools.

You should go through the area's hiring clinic and be employed as a teacher before you seek PSIA membership.

Contact the appropriate PSIA division office to receive a member information packet.

Once you have filled out the appropriate paperwork, received training from your area and have paid your dues, you are considered to be a Registered member of PSIA.

If you choose, you may participate in training programs offered by your area and division to achieve a Level I certification. Through these programs, you will learn snow sport teaching fundamentals to prepare you for Level I certification exam.
