BASI's Academic Recognition

Our Level 1 qualification earns you UCAS Tariff points

Each Level 1 qualification – in ski, snowboard, telemark, adaptive or cross-country - gives you 7 UCAS points, up to a maximum of 35 points. This means that your dedication to teaching snowsports counts when it comes to university and college applications. Another bonus is that most of our courses have been rated by the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF), which counts in Europe, too.
