CANSI is the national association for the training and certification of cross country and telemark ski instructors in Canada.
Anyone 15 years of age or older can attend a Level I course in either cross country or telemark discipline. Level I courses are offered across Canada.
Upon successful completion of a Level I course you become a member of CANSI and this gives you access to higher level certification course, refresher briefings, skill development programs and all technical information designed to help you grow and develop your skiing and teaching skills.
It has been a remarkable winter.
As I have mentioned previously, CANSI is working on a collaboration with Nordiq Canada. We are offering to help them create an instructor stream like the one we have developed over the past 50 years. CANSI has been invited to participate in the Nordiq Canada Coach Conference, from April 25 to 28, 2024, in Canmore, Alberta. If you would like to attend and represent CANSI, please get in touch with me. We are especially looking for CANSI members who hold coaching certification with Nordiq Canada. Your input and experience in both organizations would be welcome as we look for commonalities in how we teach the skiing public.
