Candidates will receive coaching on their snowboarding skills, as well as feedback on their teaching skills, with the goal of reaching the Park Instructor 2 standard in both of these areas. They will also receive suggestions and strategies for long-term development. The successful candidate is certified to take students into freestyle terrain, and teach manoeuvres on small, medium and large terrain park features.
