What does this mean for aspiring BASI Gap students?
This means that the very people who are training you on a Gap course will be the ones examining you at the end. This means a seamless transition from training to assessment with the best possible preparation for the exams. The trainers can monitor your progression from day 1 of the course and there will be no surprises when the assessed course comes in the final two weeks. This is the only course of its kind to do this. Anywhere in the World.
What does this mean for people starting a career in snowsports?
If you are planning on changing career to one in snowsports, then it is vital that you embark on your career with an official training centre. Many people take a gap year for a variety of reasons, but if you are serious about achieving a qualification that will lead to a job and then a career, you need to spend your money and training time wisely.
