This independant website offers a large database of ski schools and educational information worldwide.
We value a good organised skischool and clean (in terms of loan, housing, training, hours distribution etc.) agreements between the skischool and the instructor. Educational courses need to be profesional, accurate, value for money, clearly in costs upfront etc.
Because of that we have build a review and rating community.
For us, the instructors, to tell eachother where the best and nicest working places are. For skischools to offer a platform between skischools and instructors where they can find qualified instructors from all over the world reflecting their needs and professionalism.
Together with a community this website is the leading information resource for professional snowsport instructors and skischools around the globe.

Together with a logo and photos/ videos the listing offers a nice and clean lay-out where it can present itself towards new instructors and tourists visiting the skiing area. This is a free promotion for the skischools offered by our website. The location of the ski school is automaticly shown on on a google map with nearby options present.
Instructors who have been working in a particular ski school are ancouraged to write down their experiences together with a review.
Ski-schools (as listing owner) are automaticly informed of the review and have the opportunity to react on reviews given (see below "Negative Reviews") .
2. Educational information/ Gap year/ Season work
The website offers listings of 'how to become a ski or snowboard instructor'. The section provides usefull information of all (commercial) courses offered worldwide. NO internal courses (sometimes) provided by ski schools are allowed in this section.

5. Community
Our website is offering a community where every member can share snowsports related videos, photos and (educational) events or make Friends and Group up with eachother. We offer blogs of "how to teach.." as well as season experiences of instructors working worldwide. We believe that all this together will give fresh instructors a step forward and a clear view of their possibilities and limitations on their future snowsports carreers.
6. Award system & Awards
Ski schools and Educational courses with excellent reviews (above 4 stars) from at least 5 members (each year!) are  receiving an award (valid for the season received). This award reflects the excellent working circumstances for the instructors, and will give the ski school a valuable sign or professionalism towards their customers.
The “awarded” logo (with year stamp) is also shown in the ski school or educational listing. Awarded listings are searchable through the search parameter "Awarded".
 The skischool or company who has received the award may use it on their own website to show their customers they offer quality working circumstances towards their instructors or offering an outstanding instructor course!
The Awarded skischool or company also receives an Award by normal mail to present it in their (skischool) office.
7. Negative Reviews, what to do?
Offcourse we realize that offering a platform for reviews can result in negative reviews for a particular skischool or company. Every review is scanned by our staff for motivation and thrustworthy. Anonymous reviews are not allowed. Negative & Positive reviews which are not well motivated are banned.
Because we understand that every organisation is developing, listening to feedback and aiming for the best business quality we set up some rules:
- No anonymous or bad motivated reviews are accepted
- Multiple Reviews from 1 IP address are banned
- Only members of our website are allowed to write reviews
- Every review is checked by our staff for motivation and thrustworthy
- No swearing is allowed
- Reviews are not deleted on request of the skischool/ company owner (*grace period)
- Grace period: Reviews older than 2 years can be deleted on request of the skischool/company
If your skischool or company has received a negative review you have the possibility to react on to that review by:
* Write a reaction on the review from the listing owners point of view. Login in to our website, go to your listing and you will see a "comment" button appearing (as on image below).
* Ask us to send you for our free flyers to distribute. These flyers will ask people to write a review about your skischool/company. Because we believe that every organisation is building forwards on feedback, the negative review will be overthrown by the positive ones. Please email us at
