What is ICE?
The International Centre of Excellence - ICE - is a European Business Partner of BASI. ICE have been granted the licence to run official BASI courses in Val d'Isere, which means that when you go on a course with ICE you are going on a course with BASI. This ensures that you will receive top quality tuition from the most experienced and forward thinking BASI Trainers.
What does this mean for aspiring BASI Gap students?
This means that the very people who are training you on the 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.
Who is behind ICE?
ICE is run by BASI Trainers, Mark Jones, Rupert Tildesley and
Dave Cowell, who are also directors of Mountain Masters Ski School
in Val d'Isere. These three trainers have been providing training
for BASI students and have running BASI courses for many years.
They are all current members of the BASI Demo Team and represented
Britain at the Interski Congress in Crans Montana, Switzerland
in 2003.
Behind them is a wealth of experience and knowledge that forms
the core of the ICE philosophy.
