accreditation training materials
 

training materials philosophy mantaining standards overview

It is highly recommended that you read, study, and practice before you arrive at an accreditation. The accreditation standards and the performance to meet the standards at any level require that you have a familiarity with Direct Parallel and with Student Directed Ski Instruction.

Here are the materials that you should have studied prior to the accreditation event for each level. These are not the only topics that will be covered in the accreditation, nor is "everything" contained in these materials. A training book is given and covered at the accreditation. The publications on this list are a good background of knowledge.
