Course Stories

Evan Shreidan

Ski Instructor Internship

I just finished doing a season in Niseko, Japan with WE ARE SNO and it was absolutely incredible. The training you receive is really amazing it totally changed my skiing for the better. The training was hands down my favourite part of the winter because that’s when I felt the most progression with my skiing. They do an amazing job preparing you for ski instructing also.

Ski Instructor Internship

My love for skiing lead me to discovering WE ARE SNO and I haven't looked back since. Thanks to the internship program at SilverStar, I have opened the door to a world of opportunities and met lifelong friends, and it's only my first winter season! (of many I hope...) Honestly, I wouldn't change a thing and am so glad I chose to go with WE ARE SNO.

WE ARE SNO simply made everything easy. From the organisation prior to the course to the communication leading up to departure. We met our program manager at the airport and it didn’t take long to settle into resort life. We were fully prepared for the exams with excellent guidance from our trainers. The experience continues to be extraordinary with the help of ongoing support from the team.
