Hybrid AIARE 1 courses are ideal for for self-motivated individuals with solid time management skills. Students will need to commit to spending 6-8 hours in the week prior to the on-snow course portion completing all necessary prerequisites; this includes the mandatory Zoom class sessions.
Your AIARE instructor will notify you with the specific details of your Zoom class at least 1-2 weeks in advance.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VIRTUAL CLASSROOM PORTION IS MANDATORY. If you cannot commit to attending the Zoom class, please consider taking our in-person AIARE 1 course.
