Throughout the course the Trainer will monitor your participation and performance. They will provide frequent, ongoing information to each student on their strengths, areas for change and how to make these changes.
During the course the Trainer and student formulate an ongoing action plan based on the students' participation. The written action plan provided by the Trainer at the end of the course available in your members area, aims to give students an agreed (between the Trainer and student) account of what students need to do to improve their performance an to progress and develop as a Ski Instructor.
