Q U A L I F I C A T I O N S

FA Q

It is possible to take the Level 3 CASI Exam at the end of this course,

if the individual on the course is prepared and at the level required.

Ask one of our Basecamp team members who will be able to point

you in the right direction with this.

What will I get paid?

Around $13 an hour - 6 hours a day (can expect a minimum of

around $1700)

Whats a days training?

10:30 - 4:00

How much work will I be doing?

Two days work minimum, but often more days work are available

Can I get a second job at the same time?

Its is not advised, it means you wont have the flexibility required for

the ski school. If you need as much work as possible it is better that

you seek additional employment from Lake Louise, there are plenty

of other opportunities within the resort.

scenery with uniquely amazing terrain, a perfect environment for

instructor or performance coaching. The area boasts 4200 acres of

skiable terrain and is one of the largest ski areas in North America.There are runs to cater for all levels and the unique layout caters well

for large groups who are looking for an incredible time. There are

endless chutes, gullies, parks and pistes for the more advanced rider

Based between four mountains, the main resort areas, Front Side

& South Face, Ptarmigan, Paradise Bowls, Back Bowls and Larch,

provide skiing and boarding terrain to suit any style and level. The

long season from mid-November to late May means that there is alsoplenty of time to really explore the resorts and uncover all their hidden

gems. Couple this with an optional Tri-Area pass that joins Lake Louise

to Sunshine Village and Norquay and youll be in for an unbelievable

season. Combined, these three resorts offer almost 8,000 acres of

skiable terrain with an average of 33ft of dry, light snow in Sunshine

Life on Basecamp was AMAZING, we hadtop training from the best instructors at thehill and our riding improved more than my

expectations. Despite the slight set back of a

broken wrist (it happens) I am now currently

working at the Lake Louise ski hill along with

my other fellow Basecampers who stayed

on to work for the season. I would highly

recommend this course to others as it was

a fantastic experience, Basecamp were

brilliant with organising jobs for us and it was

awesome value for money. If your on the

fence about doing a coursejust do it, you

wont regret it.
