Why would you want to be a DCL – Alpine Educational Staff member?

• You are considered by your fellow PSIA-E members and our ski schools to be a highly trained and up-to-date snowsport educator. Our PSIA-E members and our ski schools look to you to provide them with valuable information regarding personal skiing and ski teaching.
• The training and understudy experiences, in which DCLs participate, provide a level of comprehensive information that is not readily or inexpensively available elsewhere.
• DCLs are able to train with the best snowsports educators and coaches in the country to become better skiers and ski teachers at almost no cost, other than travel and lodging.
• The DCL is not a prerequisite or path to the ETS or Examiner status. However service on the DCL team can serve as an excellent experience and training arena for the Development Team tryout if this is your desire.
