Parents Page
Your child will be in excellent care throughout their stay with us at Skiforce, taught by the best, and with our staff available 24/7 to deal with any issue your child may have.
We will take your child up a mountain and work them up to 6 hours a day, 5 days a week until they have acquired the transferrable teaching and communications skills required to lead, inspire, motivate and share their knowledge with others.
Parents Weeks
Come and visit the trainee instructors and stay in a deluxe chalet round the corner, ski with your kids and see the fantastic changes in their skills on the slopes.
Living separately, in catered chalets, we include premium food and wine.
You will be in Morzine so you can ski with your family when they are not under instruction.
Plus you will have all the benefits of being within the Skiforce programme.

Accidents:
There may be the odd cuts and bruises, but every one is required to take travel insurance. Some suggested policies are shown on their Personal Web Page. Our Skiforce staff undertake a BSI 8848 Risk Assessment at the start of each season. We also undertake a Welcome and Safety briefing on arrival. But we know people forget, so we do a second safety briefing part way through the course. However a key part in learning to be an instructor is safety of them and their clients, by their own actions.
Communication Home:
We do ask everyone to email or text home, on arrival, so you know they have arrived ok. As they have a great time out there, they may be only sporadic communication thereafter!
Home sickness normally kick's in around week 2-3. A firm but fair hand usually ensures they stay the course and are really pleased at the end, that they have stayed on. We do provide you with the Skiforce 24/7 emergency contact number.
Flights and Insurance:
Due to the wide choice from the internet, we do not offer flights. However we do advise the most popular flight so everyone can fly together.
The Personal Web Page outlines what Insurance we recommend.
Find Out More:
We run Open Days in South Kensington, in London, (For dates: see the above tab) - so if you wish to find our more about the various Skiforce courses, do please come along.
All future Skiforce instructors are invited, via their Personal Web Page, to a pre departure Briefing Day. We brief them on what they need, what they will learn and most of all, they will meet the rest of their team before they fly.
We also a have a BBQ in the evening, an ideal time for any questions that they did not want to ask in class. You are always welcome to arrange a meeting at our Fulham office or just call if you have any questions, concerns or comments.
___________________
At the end of their Skiforce programme, after lots of incredibly hard physical work, they will be ski or boarding professionals, respected and looked up to by others around the world. I am afraid they will probably insist on showing you how to ski!
They will also be super-fit, speak half-decent French and be much better at managing their lives, have built a lifelong network of great friends, and have the self-confidence to face most of what the world might throw at them. Quite simply we can offer them a new qualification, personal skills and an amazing adventure with Skiforce! We therefore hope you will support them in this adventure.
