From the moment you join the Canadian Ski Patrol, you will be volunteering, learning and skiing in a team environment.
The advanced first aid training will give you unparalleled competence in managing and treating injuries. The added CPR/AED and on snow training will bring you to the highest standards available in Canada.
The leadership, organization and communication skills you learn as a member of the CSP will be invaluable both on and off the slopes.
There are many opportunities for patrollers to volunteer their skills at non-skiing events covered by the CSP. Many patrollers are outdoor enthusiasts such as mountain bikers, cyclists, runners and adventure racers. Instead of on skis, patrollers at these kinds of events patrol on bike or on foot.
