Skiforce is a UK registered company and part of the Gapforce family of companies. This includes British Standards (BSI) accreditation - 8848.

We are members of the Year Out Group, the UK study and work abroad trade organisation that requires both financial and safety checks plus minimum codes of practice. We are also members of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) “Know Before You Go” program. FCO booklets are available to all Skiforce potential instructors during their pre departure briefing day.

Unlike some organizations that teach Japanese, Canadian, New Zealand etc qualifications, we believe it is only correct that you learn to the British standard. You are most likely to teach to British students. So Skiforce uses the British Asso ciation of Snowsports Instructors (BASI) qualifications. First Alpine Level 1 and then Alpine Level 2 plus we include CRB and First Aid training.

A key part of any risk assessment is staff. We have our own Skiforce staff in resort, living with you. We want to ensure that not only do you pass both your Level 1 and the higher Level 2 instructors qualification, you also clear your Criminal Record Bureau check (CRB) and your First Aid courses, but also that that you have fun and ensure you want your ski season to never end!

Finally and most importantly is preparing you. Skiforce is one of the leading Gap Year UK ski instructor programmes, but we feel personal contact is still important. We will all be there at your Briefing Day, when you meet the rest of the team. Then the chilled out evening BBQ starts to create friendships before you have even arrived in resort.

"Skiforce is quite simply the number one way to become a British Instructor in the world's best ski area, making friends for life!"
