Course Description:

At the Level I College, gain an understanding of the Learning Connection Model by exploring the Technical, Teaching and People Skills in the beginner/novice zone. Through on-hill practice, peer-to-peer activities, teaching scenarios and group discussions, become familiar with the format, assessment criteria and activities prior to completing a Level I.

Participants can expect the following format:

• Day 1-2: Participants are led through on-snow, educational content by an Eastern Education Staff member to support their readiness for a Level I Assessment.

• Day 3: Participants take part in a Level I Assessment

Snowsports school affiliation is highly recommended, and the training portion of the college can help to prepare those who are not yet employed at a resort or those with limited access to formal training. Participants should arrive prepared to be able to ride safely on all green and blue terrain.

Participants must have completed the online Professional Knowledge Exam for the corresponding discipline.

Learning Experiences:

Specific activities will vary depending on group needs and conditions, and typically include:

• Practicing Level I assessment activities as well as activities to improve performance and understanding.

• Reviewing the Assessment Forms, Assessment Activities and Assessment Criteria.

• Guided group discussions.

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of this course, successful participants will be able to:

• Demonstrate a basic understanding of the components of student assessments, and how equipment selection, setup, and tactics influence learning.

• Demonstrate a basic understanding of the most common diagnoses - as well as applicable medication classifications and their potential side effects.

• Demonstrate a basic understanding of technical tactics and communication strategies for working with and guiding beginner/novice-zone students in the mountain environment.
