Coming soonIASI qualifications
Show the IASI Qualifications You Have Earned
IASI provides instructor pathways across Alpine, Snowboard and Telemark, together with Adaptive qualifications and specialist coaching, safety and language modules. Add each discipline and level separately so clients see the exact professional pathway you have completed.
Qualification areas
- Alpine
- Snowboard
- Adaptive
- Telemark
- Coaching and specialist modules
Areas the body publishes, listed as it names them. Which awards an individual instructor holds is shown on their own profile.
Alpine
The first award in the Alpine pathway. Level 1 holders can work in a closed or controlled environment, such as an artificial slope, indoor snow dome or monitored beginner snowsports learning area.
Level 2 opens further opportunities with recognised ski schools. Holders can work on piste in an open mountain environment for a recognised ski school.
A modular professional award that meets the minimum standards required by ISIA and IVSI. Holders receive the relevant ISIA and IVSI stamps on their licence.
The highest award in the IASI Alpine system, intended for those pursuing a career in snowsports instruction. Its outcomes include Euro Ski Pro under the EU Common Training Test standard and the ISIA Card.
IASI lists this as a specific qualification for working on rolling-carpet slopes and an alternative pathway to the Alpine Level 1 Ski Instructor award.
Snowboard
The first award in the Snowboard pathway. Holders can work in the closed environment of an artificial slope or indoor snow dome.
Level 2 opens further teaching opportunities with snowsports schools. Holders can work on piste in an open mountain environment for a recognised snowsport school.
A modular professional award that meets the minimum standards required by ISIA. Holders receive the ISIA stamp on their licence.
The fourth level in IASI's Snowboard instruction strand. IASI states that the ISIA Card is awarded at Level 4. Its published detail currently focuses on Levels 1–3.
Adaptive
Candidates choose a specific Adaptive module (for example monoski, biski, 3 Track, 4 Track, visual impairment or hidden disabilities). The qualification allows the holder to teach that confirmed discipline in the closed environment of an artificial slope or indoor snow dome.
Level 2 courses cover the Adaptive disciplines and allow holders to work on piste in an open mountain environment for a recognised ski school.
Telemark
The first of IASI's two published Telemark instructor-course levels. Level 1 candidates must also complete the required Child Protection Training as part of the award.
The second of IASI's two published Telemark instructor-course levels.
Coaching and specialist modules
The first step in IASI's Freestyle coaching pathway. It complements an existing instructor qualification and is one of the modules used by ski instructors working towards the IASI Level 3 ISIA Stamp.
The second step in IASI's Freestyle coaching pathway, building on the Level 1 coaching certification for teaching and demonstrating freestyle skiing and snowboarding safely in terrain parks.
IASI publishes a Level 1 Race Coach qualification pathway, with assessment criteria and a manual.
The first award in IASI's Mountain Safety pathway. It forms part of the Level 3 Ski Teacher and Level 3 Snowboard Teacher awards. Holders can work off piste within ski-area boundaries where ski patrol operates, provided the ski school and applicable local laws allow it.
The highest award in IASI's Mountain Safety pathway and part of the Level 4 Ski Teacher award. It covers working outside ski-area boundaries, except on glaciated terrain or where mountaineering techniques are required, subject to applicable professional and legal restrictions.
A supporting oral-examination module required for the ISIA Stamp and Card. It assesses practical communication for mountain work, including emergencies, directions and basic instructor conversations; it is not a test of full fluency.
Qualification recognition and permission to work vary by country, resort, employer and the holder's additional credentials. Instructors remain responsible for meeting the legal and professional requirements that apply where they teach.

IASI Instructor FAQs
Clear answers about creating a profile, the instructor application status and where that status stops.
Is it free to create an instructor profile?
Yes. You can create a profile on the free Starter plan. Paid plans add further tools and lower commission.
Does adding my governing-body information verify me automatically?
No. A public lookup or registration detail may help create your profile, but an administrator separately decides your Find a Ski School instructor application. Approval does not by itself confirm any qualification or other evidence.
Can clients find my profile before verification is complete?
Your profile can appear in instructor search after it is created. Public lesson publishing and booking require the relevant FASS verification and any location-specific eligibility requirements.
Can I add more than one discipline or specialist credential?
Yes. Add each qualification separately using its exact governing body, discipline, level and title. This is particularly important for BASI and PSIA-AASI members with multi-discipline qualifications and for CASI members with Park or Carving certifications.
Does Find a Ski School confirm that I can legally work in every country?
No. An approved instructor verification application does not confirm permission to work, local registration, insurance or safeguarding. You remain responsible for meeting the rules where you teach.
How do online payments work?
Connect your Stripe account for automatic destination transfers. Find a Ski School creates supported online charges, receives the commission applicable to your plan as an application fee, and Stripe Connect transfers your share.
Can I connect Google Calendar?
Yes. Google Calendar can receive FASS booking events and provide busy times. iCal is separate: export FASS bookings or import a public busy feed; imported recurring, TZID-tagged and all-day events are skipped.
Can I add Find a Ski School to my own website?
Independent instructors can embed their Find a Ski School reviews. Ski schools can use the Find a Ski School booking iframe. A dedicated WordPress plugin is coming soon.
Do association members receive a discount?
Yes. IASI-qualified instructors get 50% off any paid plan with code IASI50. This subscription discount is separate from the first-year commission offer, and both can apply.
