PSIA-E/AASI also has an Education Foundation that is a 501(c)(3) organization. The Foundation awards nearly fifty scholarships to members wishing to further their education in alpine, adaptive, children's, snowboard and Nordic education. The Education Foundation also is the home for the PSIA-E Snowsports Growth Project, a research and development effort in partnership with our member areas, PSIA and the National Ski Areas Association.
Each season, the PSIA-E Education Foundation makes monetary scholarships available to members who wish to further their education or certification status within PSIA-E, PSIA and AASI. The training that members receive as a result of the scholarship program increases their productivity and value as a member and as an instructor in their particular snowsports school. Scholarships are awarded based upon financial need, personal/professional goals, snowsports school experience, and ability and means to share the benefits of the scholarship with other staff members and snowsports area guests.
