Instructor Internship Intake now open for 2012/13

EA have opened applications for their Ski & Snowboard Instructor Internship Programs for the 2012/13 winter season in North America, Japan and New Zealand.

This is a fantastic opportunity for school leavers because it gives them an opportunity to obtain paid employment at a top Resort, and complete an internationally recognised ski or snowboard instructing qualification. I would be grateful if you could inform interested students, in their last or second to last year of high school, of this opportunity.

EA advises that interested students should enquire early as there are only limited employment positions available for 2012/13.

If you would like to receive direct career advisor updates or would like additional information to pass onto your students about this opportunity please email us at sstraining@educatingadventures.com.

Successful applicants will receive:
  • A GUARANTEED offer of employment as a Ski or Snowboard Instructor which includes uniform, full season pass and discount deals
  • Early season orientation, instructor training and accommodation package - Everything sorted so all you have to do is ski or ride!
  • International Instructor Association membership and level one ski or snowboard examination
  • Training, support and further qualifications throughout the season
  • Assistance and support with obtaining Working Holiday Visas, flights and insurances (in partnership with STA Travel)

* Have a passion for skiing or snowboarding (intermediate to advanced ability welcome)
* Have a willingness to learn through training and working
* Have an interest in travel and adventure
* Are available between December and April
* Will be 18 years of age by November 2012
