Several Eastern Division Patroller Schools are scheduled for this season. This two-day program, available to all patrollers in the Eastern Division, will feature several venues designed to meet the needs of the individual patroller. All of the venues count as a Senior Elective or National Continuing Education. Please see specific patroller schools listed below indicating the various venues available for that weekend.
The first venue will be the traditional format, which consists of one day skiing/boarding with a PSIA Instructor and one day with an NSP Alpine Toboggan Instructor. This venue is for the Candidate, Auxiliary, or Basic Patroller. Instruction will be individualized for alpine, telemark, and snowboard. Regardless of the type of equipment you prefer, the emphasis is on a fun, stress-free learning environment.
The second venue will be for patrollers taking the Senior S&T exam. We will show the senior candidate the “whole test” in a positive non-testing environment. This will give the patroller individual feedback of their strengths and the areas they may need a little extra help. This clinic meets the requirements for a Senior Clinic to be taken prior to the Senior Exam.
The third venue available is designed for those patrollers who are planning on becoming an Alpine Toboggan Instructor or a Senior S&T Trainer/Evaluator. Emphasis will be placed on teaching, and training effectively. If you are interested in becoming an Alpine Toboggan Instructor for your mountain; or a Senior S&T T/E, come join us, and we’ll get you on your way.
The fourth venue is an Intro to Certified Program. This venue will provide the interested patroller a broad overview of the Certified Program. Over the course of 2 days we will be running sleds, providing a hands-on Certified OEC clinic, and introducing you to other modules of the Certified Program. Please sign up early as this venue will be limited to the first 12 patrollers who sign up.
And what is a Patroller School without a Saturday evening après Patroller School Party! Join in on the fun and talk with other attendees and instructors sharing what you accomplished for the day.
Thanks for supporting the Eastern Division Patroller Schools. We look forward to having you for a fun and exciting weekend!
